Error during Mex compilation

Hello ALL,

I am getting error while doing Mex, need to know how it can be solved

 mex MOD_sl_vl_voltage_limits.c
Error MOD_sl_vl_voltage_limits.c: .\gm_sme_code_gen_types.h: 49  invalid struct field declarations 
Error MOD_sl_vl_voltage_limits.c: .\gm_sme_code_gen_types.h: 49  syntax error; found `uint8_t' expecting `}'

It is possible the compiler you are using does not support the uint8_t type (or related types). If so, you might have to manually insert a define or typedef up front in the code for this. E.g.,

#define uint8_t unsigned char

This loos like am ordinary syntax error in your C header file. What does gm_sme_code_gen_types.h looks like around line 49?

It would also be helpful too know what compiler you are using, and whether you are using a 32- or 64-bit MATLAB version of MATLAB/compiler.
