Look up the loadlibrary() function.

Caution: .dll are frequently 32 bit libraries, and 32 bit libraries cannot be called from a 64 bit version of MATLAB (this is an operating system restriction.)

Yes, I forgot about that - good point. The workaround is that you can install both the 32 bit version of MATLAB and the 64 bit version of MATLAB. They can both exist on the same computer happily. Then you just run the 32 bit version when you need to use that DLL.

Though R2015b is the last 32 bit MATLAB; R2016a will not be available in 32 bit.
