Matlab: ODE with unusual initial conditions

I am trying to solve differential equation numerically:

y'' + a * y * sin(x) + b * y = 0

with initial conditions:

y(0) = 0
y'(0) = y'(1)

But there are only simple initial conditions in examples. And I can't use solvers like ode45.

Is there any way to solve differential equation with such initial condition?

why u can't use ode45? – lakshmen Jul 22 '14 at 23:18

This is not an IVP, it is a BVP, so look up the BVP documentation e.g http://www.mathworks.se/help/matlab/boundary-value-problems.html and convert your problem to first order in the usual way – alexandre iolov Jul 23 '14 at 07:06
