Is there a 64-bit SigmaStudioServer.dll?
Hi,
I am operating in Windows 7 and want to communicate with SigmaStudio from Matlab using Matlab's actxserver() command. I cannot establish a COM link from Matlab to Sigma Studio apparently because I am using a 64-bit Matlab while the Analog.SigmaStudioServer.dll that ships with SigmaStudio is a 32-bit build:
c:\Program Files\Analog Devices\SigmaStudio 3.9>file Analog.SigmaStudioServer.dll
Analog.SigmaStudioServer.dll: PE32 executable for MS Windows (DLL) (console) Intel 80386 32-bit Mono/.Net assembly
(see for example http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/en/data/1-35LZ4G/ for some background).
One workaround suggested elsewhere on this forum is to install Matlab as a 32-bit program.
Another solution would be to use a 64-bit build of Analog.SigmaStudioServer.dll (and supporting files). Is such a build available?

Hi Steve,
At this time, our only recommendation is for you to use the 32-bit version of Matlab. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Best regards,

Hi Coleman,
Thanks for the answer. Are there plans to support 64 bit OSes in the future?
Cheers,
Steve
Hi Steve:
Yes, SigmaStudio will be supported on 64 bit version of Windows (i.e W9) however I believe that the problem with SigmaStudioServer not interfacing properly with Matlab is more a problem with Matlab not using WCF as a standard inter process communication interface. We are looking at ways around this. Can you number the importance of this feature to you from 1 - 5, 5 being most important?
Thanks

Hi Miguel,
It is a 3. Clearly, I can work around this with 32 bit Matlab, so I am not blocked. However, the workaround is inconvenient for a few reasons including having to maintain 2 matlab installs and the extra time it takes for a new team member to get up and running.
