Main Content

Express scalar inlined parameter values in the generated code as literals or macros

Model Configuration Pane: Code Generation / Identifiers

Description

Control expression of scalar inlined parameter values in the generated code. Block parameters appear inlined in the generated code when you set > > to Inlined.

Dependencies

This parameter:

• Appears only for ERT-based targets.
• Requires Embedded Coder® when generating code.

Settings

Literals (default) | Macros

Literals

Generates scalar inlined parameters as numeric constants.

Macros

Generates scalar inlined parameters as variables with#define macros. This setting makes generated code more readable.

Examples

expand all

When you generate efficient code by inlining the numeric values of block parameters (with the configuration parameter Default parameter behavior), you can configure scalar parameters to appear as macros instead of literal numbers. Each macro has a unique name that is based on the name of the corresponding block parameter.

Open the example model sldemo_fuelsys_dd_controller.

sldemo_fuelsys_dd_controller

The model uses these configuration parameter settings:

• Default parameter behavior set to Inlined.
• System target file set to ert.tlc.

Set the configuration parameter Generate scalar inlined parameters as to Macros.

set_param('sldemo_fuelsys_dd_controller','InlinedPrmAccess','Macros')

The header file sldemo_fuelsys_dd_controller_private.h defines several macros that represent inlined (nontunable) block parameters. For example, the macros rtCP_DiscreteFilter_NumCoe_EL_0 and rtCP_DiscreteFilter_NumCoe_EL_1 represent floating-point constants.

file = fullfile('sldemo_fuelsys_dd_controller_ert_rtw',... 'sldemo_fuelsys_dd_controller_private.h'); coder.example.extractLines(file,'#define rtCP_DiscreteFilter_NumCoe_EL_0',... 'rtCP_DiscreteFilter_NumCoe_EL_1',1,1)

#define rtCP_DiscreteFilter_NumCoe_EL_0 (8.7696F) #define rtCP_DiscreteFilter_NumCoe_EL_1 (-8.5104F)

The comments above the macro definitions indicate that the code generated for a Discrete Filter block uses the macros.

Tips

• If you configure a block parameter to use the storage classDefine, the generated code uses variables with#define macros to represent the parameter, and the storage class setting overrides Generate scalar inlined parameter as.
