Simulink | Advanced: Generating Code for a 64-Bit Operating System

Some data types in MATLAB Simulink may require different parameters if you are using a 64-bits target. If you are using a 32-bits target or a Windows PC, the default parameters are correct.

The typical error requiring this change is: “#error Code was generated for compiler with different sized ulong/long.”
