In Scilab 6.0.0, we did not reproduce and intersci code generation as this is handled by another tool called `SWIG` [1] for multiple scripting (or not) languages. This idea is to let the tool parse an C interface description (similar to a .h file with directives) and generate the wrapper code for a specific language. Scilab is natively supported and the tool generates API Scilab code. IMHO this is way simpler to define in interface just writing C code instead of guessing what's the intersci encoding scheme :) for a specific parameter.
