Calling Matlab from C++

I have some data in 2d std::vector
for (int j=0; j<2; j++){
result.push_back(vector<double>());
for (int i=0; i<10; i++) result[j].push_back(i);
}
result is 2x10 matrix. I'd like to send result to matlab.
#include "engine.h"
#pragma comment( lib, "libmx.lib" )
#pragma comment( lib, "libmex.lib" )
#pragma comment( lib, "libeng.lib" )
int main(int argc, char** argv){
Engine *ep;
ep = engOpen(NULL);
int const SIZE=2;
int const SIZE2=10;
double x[SIZE][SIZE2];
mxArray *A=NULL;
A=mxCreateDoubleMatrix(SIZE2, SIZE, mxREAL);
memcpy((void *)mxGetPr(A), (void *)x, sizeof(double)*SIZE*SIZE2);
engPutVariable(ep, "Data", A);
engEvalString(ep, "newData = Something(Data)");
double *cresult;
mxArray *mresult;
mresult = engGetVariable(ep,"newData");
cresult = mxGetPr(mresult);
mxDestroyArray(A);
mxDestroyArray(mresult);
engClose(ep);
return 0;
}
I also add path to directories:
C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Production Server\R2012
C:\Users\User\Documents\MATLAB
and libraries:
C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Production Server\R2012b\extern\lib\win64\microsoft
But I have such error: " fatal error LNK1120: 8 unresolved externals ", when i try to build it.

Ok, I solved it. I forgot to change platform from x32 to x64 and run the code with administrator privileges.

Artyom: You might want to post this as an answer and "accept" it, so that it is clear that this issue is resolved. Thanks!

If you want the results in the MATLAB workspace, why not create a MEX file with your C++ code?

No the result will be in C++.
