Unable to compile mex file

Question

I am using cpp files in matlab to get images from Kinect. It gives the following error:

Error using mex (line 206)
Unable to complete successfully.

Error in compile_cpp_files (line 47)
mex('-v',['-L' MicrosoftSDKPathLib],'-lMSRKinectNUI',['-I'
MicrosoftSDKPathInclude],Filename);

I don't know about this error and please let me know how to solve this error?

Answer 1

First, you need to configure your mex compiler using

>> mex -setup

Matlab will scan your PC to find installed compiler and suggest you which one to use.
I strongly recommend you use visual studio compiler (the latest you got).

Then try and re-run the compile_cpp_files script.
