problem with mex -setup in Matlab 2016 b

Hi, in windows 10, and Matlab 2016 b, and visual C++ 2013 (professional version), when I'm doing mex-setup will see the following warning, any idea please?

'MEX configured to use 'Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Professional' for C++ language compilation. Warning: The MATLAB C and Fortran API has changed to support MATLAB variables with more than 2^32-1 elements...'

You only need to worry about that warning if you are using old mex code written in the day when only 32 bits was possible.

It is sort of like a warning, "Caution, this product has changed to use unleaded gasoline only!" Which might be relevant if you are old enough to have worked on cars that accepted leaded gas, or might have to use an antique that uses it, but is just "noise" otherwise.

ok thanks, however when I'm running 'vl_compilenn' would see this error:

Error using mex data.cpp, fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'windows.h': No such file or directory.

so may be for that warning or something else ?

The warning about ABI change is completely separate from windows.h

windows.h should be available in VS2013 Professional. Please see the advice at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12748896/cannot-open-windows-h
