The closelink command closes a MATLAB session linked to the current Maple session.  Note that closing the session removes all data associated with that MATLAB session.

There are three ways of opening a MATLAB session from within Maple: using with(Matlab) to establish a link to all Matlab commands; using a specific Matlab command such as Matlab[fft]; or, using the openlink() command. The closelink command closes a link with a new MATLAB session no matter which method was used to start the MATLAB session.

After closing the link with MATLAB, you lose all access to the MATLAB data associated with that session. Any subsequent calls that use the Matlab library (for example, executing another Matlab[fft] command from within Maple) must open a new link.

If the MATLAB session is terminated while the link is still open, you must call closelink before establishing a new link.

Executing the closelink command returns a null.
