MATLAB: Crash when calling TLC library function LibBlockParameterDataTypeId()

libblockparameterdatatypeid tlcsimulinksimulink coder

Dear Support,

MATLAB R2018a crashes whenever I try to call LibBlockParameterDataTypeId() in my TLC file.

Steps for Reproduction:

Unzip attached Support.zip (the archive contains RTW-file, TLC-file)
Run Test.m (starts TLC with RTW-file and TLC-file)

-> Crash

Do you have any idea what is wrong. It runs in Matlab R2015a.

Thank you Olaf Oelsner

Hi Olaf,

I recommed reporting this crash to Technical Support. While some staff members such as myself browse MATLAB Answers, it is done in our free time.

First, ensure that you are using inline parameters. To inline all the parameters in your RTW-file, check the "Inline parameters" option in the Simulation Parameters dialog box of your model.

The SLParameter mechanism is an optimization added in Real-Time Workshop 5.1 (R13SP1) to save memory during the code generation process. Parameters of size greater than a certain threshold are not written to the RTW-file. Instead, Real-Time Workshop calls into Simulink to retrieve their values. This does require the model to be in a compiled state when running TLC.

The threshold at which "SLParameter(#)" is written to the RTW-file can actually be controlled via a default block diagram parameter. If you set the threshold higher than the size (width) of any parameters in the model, no parameter will have its value written out as "SLParameter(#)" in the RTW-file.

Currently, to work around this issue, set this value to a very large number, such as the following example:

set_param(0,'RTWParamReferencesMinSize',1e20)

This value will be used for all models in that session.

Dear Glen,

It seems Mathworks has changed the API access for CGType massively since R2017b. The new API to query the CGType.Member.Name is LibCGTypeMemberName(cgTypeIdx, memberIdx) found in the following file.

MATLABROOT/rtw/c/tlc/lib/dtypelib.tlc:849:%% Function: LibCGTypeMemberName ===========================================
MATLABROOT/rtw/c/tlc/lib/dtypelib.tlc-850-%% Abstract:
MATLABROOT/rtw/c/tlc/lib/dtypelib.tlc-851-%%   Returns the name of a member of a struct CGType
MATLABROOT/rtw/c/tlc/lib/dtypelib.tlc-852-%%
MATLABROOT/rtw/c/tlc/lib/dtypelib.tlc:853:%function LibCGTypeMemberName(cgTypeIdx, memberIdx) void

I am not sure if you are still looking for a solution to this question. But, I believe it is one of the only questions relevant to the recent change in the CGType APIs that I found on the Google searches and yet unanswered.

I would suggest finding the rest of the changed APIs by grep-ing through the installed TLC files in R2018a.

Hope this helps!
