Notes for the Windows (64-bit) Platform
1. Support for this version of this compiler will be discontinued in a future release, at which time a new version will be supported. Consult
the platform road map for more information.
2. Both Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) 6.1 must be installed. When installing Microsoft Visual Studio, you must choose “X64 Compilers and Tools” when installing Microsoft Visual Studio; this is not selected by default.
3. Intel compilers depend on tools provided by Microsoft. The following combinations are supported:

4. To build .NET components, a Microsoft .NET Framework must be installed. The .NET Framework v3.0 does not contain a framework- specific compiler; compatible components can be built using the v2.0 compiler. The .NET Framework is automatically installed by Visual Studio. It can also be downloaded from the Microsoft Web site. To execute applications that use the resulting .NET components, the target
machine must have the matching .NET Framework installed.
5. MATLAB Compiler SDK supports building .NET assemblies but not COM objects when using the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK with
out Microsoft Visual Studio.
6. This compiler does not support OpenMP. Code generation will treat parfor-loops as for-loops.
7. .sln project generation is not supported when using the Microsoft Windows SDK.
8. Fortran compilers are supported with Simulink only for creating Simulink S-Functions using the MATLAB MEX command. The S-Functions can be used with normal and accelerated simulations.
9. Simulink Real-Time supports Fortran code in Simulink models using C-MEX wrapper S-Functions.
10. Office Developer Tools must be installed as part of the Microsoft Visual Studio installation.
11. When building Excel add-ins for MPS, MATLAB Compiler SDK requires .NET framework 4.0 or later.
Additional Notes:
• Support for MinGW 4.9.2 (Distributor: TDM-GCC) was added in R2015b
• Support for Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Professional was added in R2015b
• Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 will no longer be supported in R2016a

Notes for the Linux Platform
1. g++ libraries are required, even when compiling C-language source code. This may require installing the “gcc-g++” (or similar) package on your system.
2. Fortran compilers are supported with Simulink only for creating Simulink S-functions using the MATLAB MEX command. The S-functions can be used with normal and accelerated simulations.
