This table summarizes what's new and changed in Version 2.5 (R14):

New Features and Changes

Updated Compiler Support

In V2.5, Real-Time Windows Target™ applications are compiled with the Open Watcom C/C++ compiler. For your convenience, this compiler is shipped with the Real-Time Windows Target software. Third-party compilers are no longer necessary.

Default Configuration Set

Version 2.5 provides a default configuration set. This configuration set quickly configures a Simulink^® model for default Real-Time Windows Target behavior. See the Simulink documentation for additional information on configuration sets.

SimMechanics Support

Real-Time Windows Target software Version 2.5 supports SimMechanics.

USB Joystick Support

In V2.5, the Microsoft^® Windows^® Joystick driver supports USB joysticks, including force-feedback joysticks.
