Re: xPC target w/ Matlab 2009a - unable to build model

Hi Gabriel,

The error message makes me believe that there is some compiler environment/path issue on the PC you are working on.

When you do a mex -setup are you able to see the Watcom 1.7 compiler?

If you are able to see the Watcom 1.7 compiler in mex -setup choose it and see if you are able to build the RTW demo model "rtwdemo_f14".

Also, are you setting the xPC Compiler through xPC Explorer?

Hi Anish,
I tried Open Watcom 1.7 but I get the following error during build time:

Error building Real-Time Workshop target for block diagram 'test1'. MATLAB error message: Undefined function or method 'RTW.BuildInfoString' for input arguments of type 'char'.

Any idea what the problem can be?
Thanks,
Gabriel

Hi Gabriel,

Watcom 1.8 is not supported in MATLAB R2009a. Download Watcom 1.7

http://openwatcom.mirrors.skynet.be/pub/ftp.openwatcom.org/archive/

the one released on 18 Aug 2007

Hope this helps.

I recently upgraded to Matlab 2009a, and I'm having trouble building an XPC Target model. I've tried two different compilers -Visual C++ Express 2008 and Open Watcom 1.8- to build a very simple model, but I get errors in each case:

========================================
Open Watcom 1.8 is apparently able to build the model, but when it downloads it to the target computer I get the following message from the target:
Unable to load DLL dependency: KERNEL32.DLL.GetEnvironmetStringsA
error: 127
Could not load model; corrupt file

=========================================
With Visual C++ Express 2008 I get the following output during the build:

Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008
(If you have another version of Visual Studio or Visual C++ installed and wish
to use its tools from the command line, run vcvars32.bat for that version.)

Any help will be appreciated.
