Register a subroutine to be called when the MEX-file is cleared or when MATLAB terminates
integer*4 function mexAtExit(ExitFcn) subroutine ExitFcn()ExitFcn
mexAtExit to register a subroutine to be called just before the MEX-file is cleared or MATLAB is terminated. mexAtExit gives your MEX-file a chance to perform an orderly shutdown of anything under its control.
Each MEX-file can register only one active exit subroutine at a time. If you call mexAtExit more than once, MATLAB uses the ExitFcn from the more recent mexAtExit call as the exit function.
If a MEX-file is locked, all attempts to clear the MEX-file will fail. Consequently, if a user attempts to clear a locked MEX-file, MATLAB does not call the ExitFcn.
You must declare the ExitFcn as external in the Fortran routine that calls mexAtExit if it is not within the scope of the file.
