I too want a solution for this. I tried to do the process in the above link, the process has a step where one has to download a zip file and place it in root of matlab, the problem is that the file they have provided are for Matlab 2017 and 2016 , I'm currently running 2019b, so can you help me with 2019b please?

1. Close MATLAB.

2. Download VS2019 (Professional or Community Edition). During the VS2019 installation, select the "Desktop development with C++" workload. This should install all required components.

3. After the installation, in MATLAB type

slrtsetCC ('VisualC','')
mex -setup

4. From the list of installed compilers, select VS2019.

Note 1: if you use R2019a, make sure to install the R2019 Update 5 or newer. VS2019 is not supported in older releases.

Note 2: from R2020b, Visual Studio compiler is no longer required for Simulink Real-Time. Instead, install the Simulink Real-Time Target Support Package.
