Installing Prerequisite Products

To generate C and C++ code usingMATLAB®Coder™, you must install the following products:

  • MATLAB

    Note

    If MATLAB is installed on a path that contains non 7-bit ASCII characters, such as Japanese characters,MATLAB Codermight not work because it cannot locate code generation library functions.

  • MATLAB Coder

  • C or C++ compiler

    MATLAB Coderautomatically locates and uses a supported installed compiler. For the current list of supported compilers, seeSupported and Compatible Compilerson the MathWorks®website.

    You can usemex -setupto change the default compiler. SeeChange Default Compiler.
