Hi James,
my code was no big difference for the previous on, I just add mexMakeArrayPersistent(mxCell_g); and the code is like below:
{
...
mxCell1=mxCreateCellMatrix(1,2);
mxSetCell(mxCell1,0,mxCell);
mxSetCell(mxCell1,1,mxString);
mxCell_g=mxCell1;
mxCell_g=mxCell1;
mexMakeArrayPersistent(mxCell1);
return mxCell_g;
}
The result turned out as the same as without mexMakeArrayPersistent(mxCell1).
