I don't really like Matlab, but where I do civil service at the moment I have to use it. Luckily there is some extern c-code in it (at least it gets to almost acceptable speeds this way).

Now since there are strong security issues where I work I don't have admin rights on my machine, this implied that I installed Xubuntu today, which took me all day...
Now, to use the c-file you have to compile them out of Matlab via a comand

mex myfile.c

But before doing this you have to choose which compiler to use...I choose gcc (version 4.1.3 or 4.3.1 don't remember) also because the only available already installed.

The error I get is very strange because it says something like: "error: missing '(' or (...) before '/' token"


(...) stands for a part I don't remember now (I'm at home now and not at work)
and the C-code starts with some comments //

I think that there is something not installed in the gcc, but what is it?

Hope it was comprehensible
