Embedded Coder App Not Showing Up

Hi,

I have installed the Embedded Coder Add On and it doesn't show up in the Apps menu. I know that it should appear there since I have seen it appear for my classmates, but for some of us it just doesn't show up. I have tried completely uninstalling Matlab and installing it again with Embedded Coder selected in the list of available Add Ons. But it won't show up (reinstalled twice!). Any help will be appreciated since code generation from state machines is mostly what this semester is all about for me.

PS: When I do 'ver' in the command menu it does say that Embedded Coder is installed.

Thank you!

OK I found out the solution to this. In order for Embedded Coder to show up in the Simulink Apps menu, you need to install Simulink Coder Add On. This is not mentioned in Embedded Coder pre-requisites and apparently Matlab staff thinks that Embedded Coder does not show up as an app, but that's not true (see screenshot attached).

I hope this helps others save from the frustration I had to face.

Hi Abdul

Embedded coder will not show up in the list of MATLAB Apps because it is a toolbox not an app and extends MATLAB coder (This is what the staff might have mentioned). However, it is available in the list of Simulink Apps gallery if you have installed Simulink Coder (as you did). This is mentioned in the Embedded Coder product requirements here -> https://www.mathworks.com/support/requirements/embedded-coder.html.
