Problem with legacy_code compilation and preprocessor directives

Hello, Sorry if this has already been addressed, but I've been searching for quite a while and did not find the answer. I have a problem with legacy_code compiler options. I want to set a preprocessor definition e.g. "VALUE" equal to a name of a header file e.g. "header.h". VALUE is used in preprocessor directives in a cpp file:

#ifdef VALUE

#include VALUE

The following syntax works on a Mac with MATLAB r2013a and a gcc compiler:

legacy_code('compile', my_sfun, '-DVALUE=\\\"header.h\\\"');

However, on win7 x64 with MATLAB r2012b and an SDK 7.1 compiler the following error is printed:

fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: '': No such file or directory

Here is a list of modifications I tried and what error they produced:

'-DVALUE=\"header.h\"'
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: '': No such file or directory

'-DVALUE="header.h"'
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: '': No such file or directory

'-DVALUE=\<header.h\>'
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

'-DVALUE=<header.h>'
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

'-DVALUE=header.h'
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: '': No such file or directory

Anybody that can help me with this, please?
