Description
Customize generated local temporary variable identifiers.
Dependencies
This parameter:
- Appears only for ERT-based targets.
- Requires Embedded Coder® when generating code.
Settings
$N$M (default) | string
Enter a macro that specifies whether, and in what order, certain text is to be included in the generated identifier. The macro can include a combination of the following format tokens.
| Token | Description |
|---|---|
| $A | Insert data type acronym (for example, i32 for integers) into signal and work vector identifiers. |
| $M | Insert name-mangling text if required to avoid naming collisions.Required. |
| $N | Insert name of object (block, signal or signal object, state, parameter, or parameter object) for which identifier is generated. |
| $R | Insert root model name into identifier, replacing unsupported characters with the underscore (_) character.Required for model referencing. |
| U∣InserttextthatyouspecifyfortheU | Insert text that you specify for the U∣InserttextthatyouspecifyfortheU token. Use the Custom token text parameter to specify this text. |
Tips
- Avoid name collisions. One way is to avoid using default block names (for example,
Gain1,Gain2...) when your model has many blocks of the same type. - Where possible, increase the Maximum identifier length to accommodate the length of the identifiers that you expect to generate. Reserve at least three characters for name-mangling text.
- To control the case (upper or lower case) of the text that each token represents, include decorators such as
[U_]in your macro. See Control Case of Identifiers by Using Basic Token Decorators. - If you specify
$R, the value you specify for Maximum identifier length must be large enough to accommodate full expansions of the$Rand$Mtokens. - When a name conflict occurs between an identifier within the scope of a higher-level model and an identifier within the scope of a referenced model, the code generator preserves the identifier from the referenced model. Name mangling is performed on the identifier in the higher-level model.
- This option does not impact objects (such as signals and parameters) that have a storage class other than
Auto(such asImportedExternorExportedGlobal).
