How to add an arduino library to Simulink for C-Caller ?

I am currently trying to connect a BNO080 board to an Arduino Uno via Simulink. I have attempted to do it via i2c in simulink with arduino master read, but unfortunately it does not work. What I am trying to do now is download the sparkfun BNO080 library: Link and utilize it via the c caller block in simulink. I have added the header files, but canoot get it to work because in the header file it requires the "Wiring.h" file. When Ii download that, I need another additional .h file to make "Wiring.h" work etc... Eventually it ends up as an infinite loop, because the majority of these .h files need other .h files.

I have been banging my head against the wall for some bit and I am completely lost. Could someone please help?

Here is how I added the .h file and .cpp file. For the .c file, I have utilized the "Accelerometer.c" file provided in the library mentioned above.

The c-caller function parameters:

An example of one of the many errors I get:

My folder looks like this and the .h amount of files just keeps on increasing...

Hi Joncikas,

The recommended way of interfacing sensors to Arduino is by creating a custom block by following the device driver guide.

Please use the following guide to create your own device driver:
