Dear all,
I was trying to run the 'mbuild -setup' command in
MATLAB.
However, the Microsoft Visual C++ compilers did not
work,following is the details when I run :

mbuild -setup
Please choose your compiler for building standalone
MATLAB
applications:

Would you like mbuild to locate installed compilers
[y]/n?
y

Select a compiler:
[1] Lcc-win32 C 2.4.1 in C:\PROGRA~1
\MATLAB\R2007a\sys\lcc
[2] Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition in
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8
[3] Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003 in C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003
[4] Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 in C:\Program
Files\Microsoft
Visual Studio

[0] None

Compiler: 2

Please verify your choices:

Compiler: Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition
Location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8

Are these correct?([y]/n): y


***********************************************************
******************
Error: The Microsoft Platform Software Development Kit
(SDK) was not found.
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition
requires that the SDK is
installed properly. MATLAB Compiler uses the
environment variable
"MSSdk" to find the SDK. If it is installed
properly, please
verify that the environment variable "MSSdk"
points to the
correct location. Otherwise, install the SDK
and
try again.

Trying to update options file: C:\Documents and

Data\MathWorks\MATLAB\R2007a\compopts.bat
From template: C:\PROGRA~1
\MATLAB\R2007a\bin\win32\mbuildopts\msvc80freecompp.bat

Done . . .


Then I follow the instruction of 'Using Visual C++ 2005
Express Edition with the Microsoft Platform SDK' at
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/express/aa700755.aspx
to
install the SDK and run the 'mbuild -setup' again.
Still,
it didn't work.

Anyone has a sugestion?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I found your post as I had exactly the same problem !

To add the MSSdk environment variable, go to
Control Panel -> System
then "Advanced" and "Environment variables"

Then create a new variable with name "MSSDk" and value
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server
2003 R2
(this is where the sdk platform is installed).

Then restart matlab and it should work...
