Use the Custom Toolchain - MATLAB & Simulink (original) (raw)

Main Content

You can use a custom toolchain when generating a static or dynamic library or an executable. You cannot use one to generate MEX functions. To specify which compiler to use for MEX-function generation, see Setting Up the C or C++ Compiler).

Before using the custom toolchain, register the custom toolchain, as described in Register the Custom Toolchain.

1. Use coder.config to create a configuration object. For example:
   cfg = coder.config('exe');
2. Get the value of config(end).Name from thertwTargetInfo.m file. Then assign that value to thecfg.Toolchain property:
   cfg.Toolchain = '_`mytoolchain v#.#`_' | '_`buildartifact (platform)`_'
3. Perform other steps required to generate code, as described in Deployment. For example, specify the path and file name of the source code:
   cfg.CustomSource = 'filename_main.c';
   cfg.CustomInclude = pwd;
4. When you generate code using the codegen function, specify the configuration object that uses the custom toolchain. For example:
   codegen -config cfg filename

You have completed the full workflow of creating and using a custom toolchain described inCustom Toolchain Registration.
