You can return a variable number of arguments by returning an
octave_value_list as the first element of retval:
~/test:
$ cat varargouttest.cc
#include <octave/oct.h>
DEFUN_DLD (varargouttest, args, nargout, "")
{
octave_value_list retval, retval2;
for (int i = 4; i >= 0; i--) {
retval2(i) = octave_value (1 + i);
}
retval(0) = retval2;
nargout = 5;
return retval;
}
~/test:
$ mkoctfile varargouttest.cc
~/test:
$ octave -q
octave:1> varargouttest
ans =
(
~ [1] = 1
~ [2] = 2
~ [3] = 3
~ [4] = 4
~ [5] = 5
)
octave:2>
