Hi Raphael Eckfeld,
I understand that you're having trouble generating a Mex file for a Simulink model that includes protected models.
The possible reason for this issue could be a misconfiguration of code generation settings. Follow the steps below to cross-check the model settings across different devices,
- Open your Simulink model.
- In the ‘MODELING’ tab, select ‘Model Settings’ option.
- In the "Code Generation" section, check the ‘Target selection’ and ‘Build Process’ settings.
- Check the ‘Toolchain’ and ‘Toolchain details’.
- Update the setting such that it was compatible with the device you are using.
- Click "Apply" and then "OK" to save the changes.
- Attempt to generate code again.
In addition, you can follow the below general troubleshooting steps,
- Ensure that the versions of MinGW64 on both systems match.
- Verify that the paths to MinGW64 are correctly set on both systems. Check the system path by typing getenv('PATH') in the MATLAB Command Window.
- Ensure that necessary environment variables, such as MW_MINGW64_LOC, are correctly set on both systems.
- Look for any MATLAB add-ons or toolboxes installed on your PC that might be relevant to the compilation process. Check if your laptop is missing a specific toolbox or add-on that the model references.
- Clear temporary files in MATLAB using the clear and clear mex commands in the Command Window.
