Problem Choosing SDK Compiler

Hello,

I have downloaded and installed the Microsoft Platform SDK 7.1 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 express compiler on 64-bit Windows. However, when I run the command: mex -setup

And I also make sure the SDK environment variables gets set, but it is also unable.

I want to use SDK 7.1 as my compiler, but it is not in the list. How can I add the SDK 7.1 in the list? Thank you!

SDK 7.1 does not appear in the list as it does not seem to be a supported compiler. Check the following link:

Why doesn't Visual Studio 2010 express suffice?

I want to use the 'Wind Turbine Model' from the Mathworks. We must use SDK 7.1 to compile the model. My system is windows 7 *64bit and I use the Matlab 2011a.

Why "must" you use SDK 7.1? It is not possible to use SDK 7.1 with R2011a as it is not supported. For now you may select one of the other compilers that show up when you execute mex -setup. Else you need to upgrade to a version of MATLAB/Simulink that supports SDK 7.1
