COM-Interface or a similar interface

Hi all,

Is it possible to have an interface (maybe a COM-interface) between Matlab (for example) and Hypermesh, where Matlab is the server and Hypermesh has a client role?

I want to generate fixed nodes at a specific coordinate for example. This coordinate is known within a matlab script and should be transfered to Hypermesh.
Matlab provides the possibility to communicate via a COM-interface with other programs.

    Hi JL,

    If you can output a text file from matlab you can then create nodes from this text file using a script, you can find such a script from our script exchange.

    Since HyperMesh is customized and interfaced using TCL,

    Please see http://WIKI.TCL.TK/4135. 'It's the MATLAB page of the tcler's wiki'

    'You can find links to packages dealing with tcl<->matlab interaction and hints on DDE and COM if you are working on windows platforms'
