Is there a difference between loading mex.h and mexFunction.h files in the beginning of a mex file? It appeared to me that some mex files load mex.h, others load mexFunction.h. But my Matlab 2011b only has mex.h

mex.h is the header used for mex functions. mexFunction is the name of the gateway routine. What is mexFunction.h?

[EDITED]: mexFunction.h is a small header to defined the entry point for a DLL, while mex.h is a large header file for all functions available in Mex functions.

What about, say, here, http://www.sondette.com/public/blog/?p=467. mex.h and mexFunction.h are both loaded in the beginning and void mexFunction() is defined in the code again...
