Control generation of example main program

Model Configuration Pane: Code Generation / Templates

Description

Control whether to generate an example main program for model. This parameter is not relevant and is disabled for component models configured with a service interface.

Dependencies

This parameter enables Target operating system.

Settings

on (default) | off

Default: on

On

Generates an example main program, ert_main.c (or .cpp) for a model. The file includes:

• The main() function for the generated program
• Task scheduling code that determines how and when block computations execute on each time step of the model

The operation of the main program and the scheduling algorithm employed depend primarily on whether the model:

• Is single-rate or multirate
• Solver mode is set to SingleTasking or MultiTasking

Off

Does not generate an example main program.

Note

The software provides static versions of the main file, _`matlabroot`_/rtw/c/src/common/[rt_main.c](https://mdsite.deno.dev/matlab:edit%28fullfile%28matlabroot,'/rtw/c/src/common/rt%5Fmain.c'%29%29) and _`matlabroot`_/rtw/c/src/common/[rt_cppclass_main.cpp](https://mdsite.deno.dev/matlab:edit%28fullfile%28matlabroot,'/rtw/c/src/common/rt%5Fcppclass%5Fmain.cpp'%29%29), as a basis for custom modifications. You can use the static main file as a template for developing embedded applications.

Tips

• After you generate and customize the main program, clear this parameter to prevent regenerating the main module and overwriting your customized version.
• You can use a custom file processing (CFP) template file to override normal main program generation, and generate a main program module customized for your target environment.
