This page briefly documents how to configure MATLAB for Windows when a MEX compilation environment is required. Under Linux and MacOS, this configuration step is not necessary, because these operating systems already come with a working compilation environment (using g++).
With Dynare, you need a working MEX compilation environment in two cases:
- you need to recompile Dynare MEX files, without using Dynare build system
you want to use the USE_DLL option of model, or the k_order_solver option of stoch_simul
We describe here the installation of two compilers: GNU C++ compiler (g++), and Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC).

For USE_DLL and k_order_solver options, the only supported compiler is g++
For MATLAB 64-bit, the only supported compiler is MSVC
Configuring MATLAB with GNU C++ compiler (g++)
Install a Cygwin environment (see http://www.cygwin.com). You need at least the following packages: gcc, gcc-g++, gcc-mingw, gcc-mingw-g++
Download mexopts.bat, and put it in c:\Documents and Settings\<User name>\Application Data\MathWorks\MATLAB\<release number>\
Configuring MATLAB with Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC)
The following should work with recent versions of MATLAB:
Install Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition, downloadable at http://www.microsoft.com/Express/VC/
At MATLAB prompt, type mex -setup; it should autodetect MSVC, and let you select it
For users of MATLAB 64-bit, please follow these instructions for finishing the installation
