Hi all,

I have a simple question...It might have been discussed earlier or the
solution might be very simple but I certainly am not aware of it so
far.

I have a C program on my computer that runs for some time (usually run
times are for more than 30 seconds...but while the program is running
it's generating data and dumping it to certain files.

is there any way that I can let matlab read this data and plot it in
"real-time" ... I mean anyway that I can let Matlab read the file at a
certain interval of time and plot the data.

I would appreciate any help...and if you know some other "easier" ways
to do it using some open source programs it would be great too.

Hope to hear from someone

Freddy

I think what you need is to write your own plotting functions.

C# is a good programming language for that purpose.
If you are not a programmer and the requirement is not too complicated , I might do it for you (for free).
