Hi Ivo,

I'm glad you are interested in JSBSim-Matlab.
The webpage http://jsbsim.sourceforge.net/matlab.html
is obviously a place to go and have a look at what has been
done.
Bear in mind that the JSBSim code that has been used there
is outdated. For example, the current version of JSBSim uses a
sligtly more articulated mechanism to propagate the simulation
in time.

But if you are willing to develop you should acquire some
familiarity with the C++ language (sorry). You can take this
as a kind of 'technical challenge', at least it was to me when
I wanted to learn the details of JSBSim some time ago.

That said, I inform you that recently I've revamped my original
code (that dates back to 2008) on wich the JSBSim-Matlab-Simulink
code is based.
The idea is again to build a mex file, named MexJSBSim.mexw64
on Win64. The Mex-function exposes JSBSim internals to the
Matlab environment.

The open repository of this project is here:

https://bitbucket.org/agodemar/jsbsimmatlab

You'll find the C++ code of the JSBSim-to-Matlab interface in
/JSBSimMatlab/JSBSimInterface.h
/JSBSimMatlab/JSBSimInterface.cpp

Good luck,

Agostino
