MATLAB ActiveX Client Support
7-7
The creation commands, actxcontrol and actxserver, both return a 
MATLAB 
activex object, which represents the default interface for the object 
that was created. However, these objects may have other interfaces. It is 
possible (and common) for interfaces to also be obtained by invoking a method 
on, or getting a property from, an existing interface. The ActiveX 
get and 
invoke methods automatically create and return new activex objects to 
represent these additional interfaces.
When each interface is no longer needed, use the 
release method to release the 
interface. When the entire control or server is no longer needed, use the 
delete 
command to delete it. See the section, “Releasing Interfaces” on page 7-10, for 
more details.
