Discontinued Compiler Support
MATLAB no longer supports the following compilers:
Windows (32-Bit) Platforms
• Open Watcom Version 1.7
• Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 Version 7.1
Solaris SPARC (64-Bit) Platforms
• Sun™ Studio 11 cc / CC Version 5.8
• Sun Studio 11 f90 Version 8.2
Compatibility Considerations
To ensure continued support for building your MEX-files, consider upgrading to another
supported compiler. For an up-to-date list of supported compilers, see the Supported and
Compatible Compilers Web page.
Changes to Libraries on Linux with Debian Systems
If you run MATLAB Version 7.10 (R2010a) on a Linux with Debian
®
system, you must
use Debian 5, as indicated on the Platforms & Requirements Web page.
MEX-files created with MATLAB Version 7.2 (R2006a) or earlier depend on the libstdc
++.so.5 library. Debian 5 does not include this library. MATLAB running on Linux
platforms with Debian 5 cannot load these pre-R2006a MEX-files.
Compatibility Considerations
You cannot run MEX-files created with MATLAB R2006a or earlier on Linux with
Debian 5. Recompile these files on a system with Debian 5.
Math Libraries Not Available to Build MEX-Files with Compaq Visual
Fortran
MATLAB no longer provides the libdflapack.dll and libdfblas.dll math libraries
for building Fortran MEX-files with a Compaq Visual Fortran compiler.
