Hi there,
I am trying to compile a C++ code with mex but am unable to compile it successfully . Reading some related blogs, I installed both Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express and Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) 7.1 but still it's giving this error:
>>>> facePart.cpp(5) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'stdafx.h': No such file or directory
Anyone can help me figure out the problem please...?
I am using a 64-bit Windows Platform with matlab version 2011a...
By the way, after typing mex -setup, it gives me something like this: Please choose your compiler for building MEX-files:
Would you like mex to locate installed compilers [y]/n? y
Select a compiler: [1] Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0
[0] None
Compiler: 1
Please verify your choices:
Compiler: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express Location: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0
Are these correct [y]/n? y
************************************************************************* Warning: MEX-files generated using Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 require that Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 run-time libraries be available on the computer they are run on. If you plan to redistribute your MEX-files to other MATLAB users, be sure that they have the run-time libraries. *************************************************************************

Done . . .

looking forward to hear from you guys... thanks.

Do you have 'stdafx.h' #include'd in facePart.cpp at line#5? It appears that this is an automatically generated header when compiling as a Visual Studio project.

Is 'stdafx.h' in your current directory? In fact, is all the source code and include files in your current directory?
