addEnumType

Add enumerated type to Simulink interface dictionary

Since R2022b

In R2023b the Architectural Data section of data dictionaries was introduced. When managing interfaces, data types, constants, and software address methods consider using the Simulink.dictionary.ArchitecturalData programmatic interfaces instead. For more information, see Programmatically Manage AUTOSAR Architectural Data.

Description

dataType = addEnumType(dictObj,dtName) adds a Simulink enumeration with the specified name to the dictionary.

Examples

To add a Simulink enumeration with the specified name to the dictionary, use the addEnumType function. For an example that shows more of the workflow for related functions, see Create and Configure Interface Dictionary.

% open interface dictionary
dictName = 'MyInterfaces.sldd';
dictAPI = Simulink.interface.dictionary.open(dictName);

% add enumerated type
myEnumType1 = addEnumType(dictAPI,'myColor');
myEnumType1.addEnumeral('RED', '0', 'Solid Red');
myEnumType1.addEnumeral('BLUE', '1', 'Solid Blue');
myEnumType1.DefaultValue = 'BLUE';
myEnumType1.Description = 'I am a Simulink Enumeration';
myEnumType1.StorageType = 'int16';

Input Arguments

Interface dictionary, specified as a Simulink.interface.Dictionary object. Before you use this function, create or open dictObj by using Simulink.interface.dictionary.create or Simulink.interface.dictionary.open.

DataType definition name in DataTypes property array of dictObj, specified as a character vector or a string scalar.

Example: "airSpeed"

Output Arguments
