Namespace: target

Describe API details

Since R2020b

Description

An API defines a set of entry-point functions for interaction with a software application or service. Use a target.API object to provide API details for target definition. Use this class with target.APIImplementation to describe how an API is used and built on target hardware.

To create a target.API object, use the target.create function.

This example provides implementation details for the rtiostream C API.

apiImp = target.create('APIImplementation', 'Name', ... 'x86 rtiostream Implementation'); apiImp.API = target.create('API', 'Name', 'rtiostream'); apiImp.BuildDependencies = target.create('BuildDependencies'); apiImp.BuildDependencies.SourceFiles = ... {fullfile('$(MATLAB_ROOT)', 'toolbox', ... 'coder', 'rtiostream','src', ... 'rtiostreamtcpip', 'rtiostream_tcpip.c')}; apiImp.MainFunction = target.create('MainFunction', ... 'Name', 'TCP RtIOStream Main'); apiImp.MainFunction.Arguments = {'-blocking', '1', '-port', '0'};
