I am still looking into this, as time allows.

I ahve reviewed some different ways to implement this, I have
determine that the following routines can be used :

LINKIMAGE
SPAWN
MAKE_DLL
CALL_EXTERNAL
CALL_EXTERNAL/MAKE_DLL

There is a nice example to use CALL_EXTERNAL/MAKE_DLL, but MAKE_DLL is
giving me problems as I am trying to use the gcc compiler. There is a
ITTVIS Tech Tip that helps, but another problem appears while dealing
with the IDL example.

There is a GCP DLL provided thru the MatLab Contrib site. I am playing
around with this in CALL_EXTERNAL, bypassing the MAKE_DLL.

Sorry, that this is turning into a blog, but I find it helps to scatch
some notes down once in awhile for future reference.
