Hi,

I am running on windows 7 x64 bits and matlab 7.1 R2010, when running mbuild - setup i am having the famous error below

"Could not find the 64-bit compiler. This may indicate that the
"X64 Compilers and Tools" or the Microsoft Windows Software
Development Kit (SDK) is not installed. To build 64-bit binaries,
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition requires that these two
packages be properly installed."

i have installed microsoft visual c++ 2008 express edition with SP1 and windows SDK for windows 7 as well i do have microsoft visual studio ultimate 2010 still no luck no make it work.

through all the setups and control panel options i cannot find the "X64 compilers and tools"

could you please help me out installing the compiler for my matlab ?

M

you may need the pro edition of Microsoft Visual C++ 2008, regardless when you install you need to manually select to install the x64 compilers

but there is no option to select the x64 compilers during the installation!

Quick web search turns up:

"Visual C++ 2008 Express does not include MFC, ATL, OpenMP support,
or 64-bit compilers, nor does it include a resource editor. The
higher-end commercial editions of Visual Studio, specifically the
Professional and Team Suite editions have these features."

That would explain why you aren't seeing 64-bit compile option.

just fired up the VS "ultimate" installer and several screens
in there's options for Itanium and x64 compilers, so since
you have "Ultimate" install it but make sure you choose the
x64 option.
