coder.mapping.api.CodeMapping - Model data and function interface configuration for C code generation - MATLAB (original) (raw)
Main Content
Model data and function interface configuration for C code generation
Since R2020b
Description
A code mappings object and related functions enable you to configure C code generation for data of a Simulink® model. For model data elements, code mappings associate data elements with configurations that consist of a storage class and storage class properties. Reduce the effort of preparing a model for C code generation by specifying default configurations for categories of data elements across a model. Override default configurations by configuring data elementsindividually. For smaller models, you can choose to configure each data elementindividually.
Creation
When you select a code generation app from the Apps tab in the Simulink Editor, such as the Simulink Coder or Embedded Coder app, the app creates a coder.mapping.api.CodeMapping object if code mappings do not already exist. The app creates code mappings based on code customization settings stored in the model active configuration set object. The configuration set object can specify memory sections for data and functions.
Create a coder.mapping.api.CodeMapping object programmatically by calling the function coder.mapping.utils.create.

Examples
Use the programmatic interface to create and use code mappings objects of Simulink models.
Load the model NoCoderMapping.
simulinkModel = "NoCoderMapping"; load_system(simulinkModel);
Use a try-catch block to determine whether a code mappings object exists for the model. Inside the try block, attempt to retrieve the existing object by using function coder.mapping.api.get. Inside the catch block, create a new code mappings object by using the function coder.mapping.utils.create. Store the code mappings object in the variable codeMapObj.
Add print messages to show whether the model had an existing code mappings object or not.
try codeMapObj = coder.mapping.api.get(simulinkModel); fprintf("" + ... " ========================================================\n" + ... " The model already had code mappings.\n" + ... " ========================================================\n"); catch fprintf("" + ... " ==========================================\n" + ... " The model does not have code mappings.\n" + ... " Creating new code mappings for the model.\n" + ... " ==========================================\n"); codeMapObj = coder.mapping.utils.create(simulinkModel); end
========================================== The model does not have code mappings. Creating new code mappings for the model.
Retrieve the storage class of input port inport_1 of the model.
getInport(codeMapObj,"inport_1","StorageClass")
Set the storage class of input port inport_1 to ExportedGlobal.
setInport(codeMapObj,"inport_1",StorageClass="ExportedGlobal")
Use the same try-catch block to see how the function coder.mapping.api.get is now able to retrieve the existing code mappings of the model.
try codeMapObj = coder.mapping.api.get(simulinkModel); fprintf("" + ... " ========================================================\n" + ... " The model already had code mappings.\n" + ... " ========================================================\n"); catch fprintf("" + ... " ==========================================\n" + ... " The model does not have code mappings.\n" + ... " Creating new code mappings for the model.\n" + ... " ==========================================\n"); codeMapObj = coder.mapping.utils.create(simulinkModel); end
======================================================== The model already had code mappings.
Retrieve the storage class of input port inport_1 of the model. Notice that it is the storage class that you set previously.
getInport(codeMapObj,"inport_1","StorageClass")
Close the model without saving it.
close_system(simulinkModel,false)
Version History
Introduced in R2020b
Starting in R2023a, tab completion is available for function names and arguments and for object properties. After you enter the first few characters of a function, input argument, or object property, press the Tab key to let MATLAB® automatically complete the typing. MATLAB adds the remaining characters of the function, argument, or parameter. If you did not enter anything or if there are multiple options that begin with the characters you entered, MATLAB opens a list of available alternatives you can choose from. To learn more about tab completion, see Code Suggestions and Completions.
