coder.mapping.api.CodeMappingCPP

Model data and interface configuration for C++ code generation

Since R2021a

Description

A code mappings object and related functions enable you to configure C++ code generation for data and functions 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. For functions, code mappings associate entry-point functions with configurations that consist of a function customization template. Reduce the effort of preparing a model for C++ code generation by specifying default configurations for categories of data elements and functions across a model. Override default configurations by configuring data elements or functions individually. For smaller models, you can choose to configure each data element and function individually.

Creation

When you select the Embedded Coder app from the Apps tab in the Simulink^® Editor, the app creates a coder.mapping.api.CodeMappingCPP 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.

Access a coder.mapping.api.CodeMappingCPP object programmatically by using the coder.mapping.utils.create or coder.mapping.api.get functions.

Object Functions

find	Get model elements for the category of model code mappings
getClassName	Get class name of model
setClassName	Set class name of model
getClassNamespace	Get class namespace for a model
setClassNamespace	Set class namespace of model
getData	Get code mapping configuration for model data
setData	Configure model data for C++ code generation
getFunction	Get code configuration from code mappings for model function
setFunction	Set code mapping information for model function

Examples

Create Environment to Configure C++ Code Mappings for Model

Open the model CppClassRateBased, and create the environment for configuring model data and functions for code generation by using the coder.mapping.utils.create function.

open_system('CppClassRateBased')
coder.mapping.utils.create('CppClassRateBased');

After calling coder.mapping.utils.create, use calls to other functions listed under Object Functions to configure aspects of code generation for model interface elements.
