HDL Coder Variable Size Matrix

Hello, I'm trying to do matrix multipication in fpga. For this, I would like to convert my .m function given below.

function y=sindy_product(x1,x2)%mxn . nxk

y=zeros(1,225);%mxk

iteration=1;

coder.varsize('A',[1 1000001]);

coder.varsize('B',[1 1000001]);

for i = 1:1000001:1000001*15%n,mxn

for j =1:15%k

A=x1(i:i+1000001-1);%n

B=x2(j:15:1000001*15);%k,nxk

C=0;

for k = 1:1000001

C=C+A(k)*B(k);

end

y(iteration)=C;

iteration=iteration+1;

end

end

end

Error I get:

See HDL Coder conformance report.

I use matricies' row vector form because hdl coder doesnt allow to use matrix form. I think my all the variables have constant size but i still get the variable-size matrix error.

coder.varsize is declaring a variable size matrix:

Initializing the matrix with the zeros function may solve your issue.

Can you share your design and testbench and the project file used?

Thanks
