I would like to pass a vector of strings from C++ to matlab. I have tried using the functions available such as mxCreateCharMatrixFromStrings but it doesn't give me the correct behavior.

So, I have something like this:

void mexFunction(
    int nlhs, mxArray *plhs[],
    int nrhs, const mxArray *prhs[])
{
   vector<string> stringVector;
   stringVector.push_back("string 1");
   stringVector.push_back("string 2");
   //etc...

The problem is how do I get this vector to the matlab environment?

   plhs[0] = ???

My goal is to be able to run:

>> [strings] = MyFunc(...)
>> strings(1) = 'string 1'
