                given a MATLAB struct named mystruct, you could access it's fields like this:
                    MATLAB way: mystruct.field
                    C++ way:    mystruct["field"]
                    MATLAB way: mystruct.field.subfield
                    C++ way:    mystruct["field"]["subfield"]

                To get the values as C++ types you do something like this:
                    int val = mystruct["field"];
                or
                    int val;
                    mystruct["field"].get(val);
