mex cannot find gccopts.sh

I'm trying to set up mex in MATLAB to compile with gcc but it appears that the options file for gcc (gccopts.sh) does not exist. mex does not find it nor can i find it under User/.matlab/R2013a

>> mex -setup

    Options files control which compiler to use, the compiler and link command
    options, and the runtime libraries to link against.

    Using the 'mex -setup' command selects an options file that is
    placed in /Users/Victor/.matlab/R2013a and used by default for 'mex'. An options 
    file in the current working directory or specified on the command line 
    overrides the default options file in /Users/Victor/.matlab/R2013a.

    To override the default options file, use the 'mex -f' command
    (see 'mex -help' for more information).

The options files available for mex are:

1: /Applications/MATLAB_R2013a.app/bin/mexopts.sh : 
    Template Options file for building MEX-files

0: Exit with no changes

Enter the number of the compiler (0-1):

Why don't my MATLAB have the gccopts.sh file and how can I get it?

I am having the same issue. Did you find a solution to this problem?

Maybe you don't have minGW-w64 compiler installed on the system. check installing it from add-on.
