The problem occurred when creating an accelerated MEX file for the model 'ActiveSupport_3DFIG'.

MATLAB only gave the reason as: encountered an error while compiling "ActiveSupport_3DFIG_acc".

Hi Zhurui,

I was also facing a similar error message when compiling my model.

After thoroughly reviewing the documentation, I found the following links helpful in debugging my model and resolving the issue.

• Debug C MEX S-Functions: https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/sfg/debugging-c-mex-s-functions.html
• Manage Simulation Targets for Referenced Models: https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/ug/model-reference-simulation-targets-1.html
• C MEX S-Function Examples: https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/sfg/c-mex-s-function-examples.html

The explanation and examples here provided clear guidance for step-by-step troubleshooting to pinpoint the exact cause.

You may go through the following MathWorks documentation links to learn more about using MEX Functions:
