<H3>Usage</H3>
The <code>ctypecast</code> function is a convenience function for ensuring that
a FreeMat structure fits the definition of a C struct (as defined
via <code>ctypedefine</code>. It does so by encoding the structure
to a byte array using <code>ctypefreeze</code> and then recovering it using
the <code>ctypethaw</code> function. The usage is simply
<PRE>
s = ctypecast(s,typename)
</PRE>
<P>
where <code>s</code> is the structure and <code>typename</code> is the name of the
C structure that describes the desired layout and types for elements
of <code>s</code>. This function is equivalent to calling <code>ctypefreeze</code>
and <code>ctypethaw</code> in succession on a FreeMat structure.
