Yes. Walter Roberson pointed out the properties of the handle class to me, including it's ability to call a clean up function, here: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/283309
So the solution is to define a class which inherits the handle class, something like this:
classdef myclass < handle properties (Hidden = true, SetAccess = private) cpp_handle; end methods % Constructor function this = myclass() this.cpp_handle = init_mex(); end % Destructor function delete(this) clear_mex(this.cpp_handle); end % Example method function output = action(this, data) output = action_mex(this.cpp_handle, data); end end end
I was going to post this when I'd used and tested it, but your question prompted me to post it earlier. As a result, it may not be exactly right, but hopefully you get the gist.
