Rapid Accelerator Mode fatal error C1128

When trying to execute my model in Rapid Accelerator Mode I receive the following error: fatal error C1128: number of sections exceed object file format limit : compile with /bigobj

I understand this is an issue with Visual C++, but am unsure how to alleviate it. Is there a setting I can alter to allow the compiler to compile with /bigobj, and if so can the argument be passed through matlab?

You can add '/bigobj' to the compiler options in the 'Code Generation' pane of the 'Configuration Parameters' in Simulink to address this error message.

Here are the steps to do this:

1. Select 'Configuration Parameters' > 'Code Generation'
2. Set 'Build configuration' to 'Specify'
3. Add '/bigobj' at the end of the Options field for the C Compiler and C++ Compiler
4. Click on Apply

Additional information on the tools/options in the 'Code Generation' pane can be found here:

Thank you so much Nick, this is an excellent solution.

there is no code generation in the configuration Parameters, looked at the documentation it says i need a simulink coder license, I am using the academic version from my university.

I have a similar issue as I an using a framework named acado and have a similar error pop up.

an update

the code generation was due to my matlab version but since i updated i got it now. I applied your method I still get the same error message.

keep in mind that I am mainly using matlab not simulink and I am using a framework named ACADO that has an interface with matlab this gets me the error and recommend to use bigobj

please help
