c++ octave interface, octfile

[Georg Holzmann]

Hallo!

I have a quite complex C++ class (a neural network like structure) with 
lots of data and different algorithms and want to access this class in 
octave.

Therefore I have various questions:

- Is there somewhere a documentation or examples on how to interface 
with classes ? I read the manual about octfiles and mexfiles, but this 
is only about interfacing to functions ...

- Or can I simply derive from octave_base_value and then implement my 
custom methods which can be called from octave ? Because I have quite 
some setter/getter and other methods and don't want to write a single 
file for each of them ...


Sorry if these questions are answered somewhere else, but I didn't find 
something so far - so I am happy with any link to documentation and 
examples.

Thanks,
LG
Georg
