If you used arduinoio.customLibrary.createLibraryTemplate, the required folder structure was generated automatically. This section describes how to create it from scratch.

The custom Arduino^® library folder is a MATLAB^® package folder. The top-level package folder name must be the name of your custom Arduino library preceded by a + sign.

The package folder must contain two files: MATLAB Custom Arduino Library Class and the C++ Header File file.

Note

Use only ASCII characters in your MATLAB and C++ classes.

Create a folder package to contain all the files for your custom library, and add it to the MATLAB path. For example:

1. Add a folder named +arduinoioaddons in your working folder.

2. In +arduinoioaddons, add a +HelloWorldFolder subfolder.

   This folder contains the MATLAB Custom Arduino Library Class file.

3. In the +HelloWorldFolder subfolder, add a src folder that contains the C++ Header File.
