How to integrate a Microchip's library mpusbapi.dll to Matlab?

Hello. I have a problem. I have a file _mpusbapi.h (header) and mpusbapi.dll on the same folder. I'm trying to integrate a mpusbapi.dll (this dll was provided for Microchip, it's for usb control) with matlab R2011a 64bits using this command:

 loadlibrary mpusbapi _mpusbapi.h alias libreria

The result is an error, like this:

Warning: Warnings messages were produced while parsing. Check the functions you intend to use for correctness. Warning text can be viewed using: [notfound,warnings]=loadlibrary(...) > In loadlibrary at 360 Error loading library intermediate output follows. The actual error is at the end of this output. *******
