Initial intention (summary):

1. Call a .NET DLL from Matlab and analyze the results.

2. Add some Matlab algorithm to this DLL (i.e. call .NET assembly created from Matlab script by Builder NE)

3. Repeat step 1.

Resulting failure:

The type initializer for Namespace.<Class> threw an exception

Steps for simplified version of the test:

1. Create with deploytool a project Summator.prj (.NET assembly, class SumClass) wrapping a simple script, say:

function img = imagesum(img1, img2)
img = img1 + img2;

2. Build the project: the assemblies Summator.dll and SummatorNative.dll can be found now in C:\Users\MyName\Documents\MATLAB\Test.NET\Summator\distrib .

3. Try to load the assembly from Matlab:

myroot = 'C:\Users\MyName\Documents\MATLAB\Test.NET'
mypath=fullfile(myroot,'\Summator\distrib');
addpath(mypath);
asm = NET.addAssembly(fullfile(mypath,'Summator.dll'));
import Summator.*;
try
    mysummator = Summator.SumClass();
catch ex
    disp(ex); 
    disp(ex.ExceptionObject);
    disp(ex.ExceptionObject.TypeName);
    disp(ex.ExceptionObject.Message);
    disp(ex.ExceptionObject.InnerException);
    disp(ex.ExceptionObject.TargetSite);
    disp(ex.ExceptionObject.StackTrace);
    disp(ex.ExceptionObject.Source);
end

The result:

    myroot =
    C:\Users\MyName\Documents\MATLAB\Test.NET

The most important point: If I use the DLL from .NET application everything works, e.g.:

NETApp.ex -> NETAlgo.dll -> Summator.dll = Success

Matlab.exe -> Summator.dll = _Failure _(as shown above)

Matlab.exe -> NETAlgo.dll -> Summator.dll = Failure (same way)
