%CODEGENERATOR.GENMEXFKINE Generate C-MEX-function for forward kinematics
%
% cGen.genmexfkine() generates a robot-specific MEX-function to compute
% forward kinematics.
%
% Notes::
% - Is called by CodeGenerator.genfkine if cGen has active flag genmex
% - The MEX file uses the .c and .h files generated in the directory
% specified by the ccodepath property of the CodeGenerator object.
% - Access to generated function is provided via subclass of SerialLink
% whose class definition is stored in cGen.robjpath.
% - You will need a C compiler to use the generated MEX-functions. See the
% MATLAB documentation on how to setup the compiler in MATLAB.
% Nevertheless the basic C-MEX-code as such may be generated without a
% compiler. In this case switch the cGen flag compilemex to false.
