String Concatenate - Concatenate input strings to form one output string - Simulink (original) (raw)
Main Content
Concatenate input strings to form one output string
Libraries:
Simulink / String
Description
The String Concatenate block concatenates multiple input strings, in order of their input, to form one output string. Use this block if you want to combine multiple strings into a single string.
Ports
Input
First input string, specified as a scalar.
Data Types: string
Second input string, specified as a scalar.
Data Types: string
Output
Concatenated string, specified as a scalar.
Data Types: string
Parameters
Number of input strings to concatenate, specified as a scalar. You can specify from 2 to 512 input ports.
Programmatic Use
| Block Parameter: Inputs |
|---|
| Type: character vector |
| Values: scalar from2 to 512 |
| Default: '2' |
Output data type, specified using the string data type to specify a string with no maximum length.
To specify a string data type with a maximum length, specifystringtype(_`N`_). For example, stringtype(128) creates a string data type with a maximum length of 128 characters.
Click the Show data type assistant button

Programmatic Use
| Block Parameter: OutDataTypeStr |
|---|
| Type: character vector |
| Values: 'string' | |
| Default: 'string' |
Use the stringtype function, for example,stringtype(128).
Dependency
