> Since modifying the source directory via the build process is generally
> considered non-optimal, we may want to explore alternative approaches. Our
> preferred approach is to create a single MEX gateway function which delegates
> to specific C++ functions. This singular MEX function will always be placed
> in the build tree and added to the MATLAB path.
> Advantages to this approach:
> * Better organization
> ** All MEX functions are registered in one location
> ** Reduce the complexity of managing and linking many MEX files and ensuring
> that they are added to the MATLAB path
> ** Reduce cognitive load for adding a new function
> * Avoid polluting the source tree with build artifacts
> * Reduce build times, building a single MEX function is faster than building
> potentially hundreds
> * Reduce binary bloat caused by creating a separate MEX file for every MEX
> function
> * Enable flexibility in terms of where C++ implementation files live
