MATLAB: How to get the current configured mbuild compiler

Question

Hi all,

I run the mcc from command line to create a dll-file.

To ensure the mbuild compiler is set up well on the current computer, I want to verify this.

For mex, there is a way to get the compiler configuration using

mex.getCompilerConfigurations

Is there a (similar) way for mbuild to get the current configured compiler?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

There is the possibility to check the configuration file

fullfile(prefdir,'compopts.bat')

on the 2nd line to contain the configured compiler or if the file exists at all.

Expected compilers and their names are:

lcc - for the LCC compiler msvc60 - for Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Professional msvc80 - for Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Professional msvc90 - for Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Professional msvc100 - for Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Professional mssdk71 - for Microsoft Windows SDK 7.1
