How can i read from Matlab m-File the Data Type and Dimension of Simulink Model Signals?

These are block properties available for query after the model has been compiled. For example, for the model vdp:

vdp([],[],[],'compile');
d = get_param(gcb,'CompiledPortDataTypes');
s = get_param(gcb,'CompiledPortDimensions');
vdp([],[],[],'term');

Refer to Common Block Properties for a list of such properties. The ones available only after compile are prefixed with the word 'Compiled'.

MATLAB: How to access the port width, data types, and dimensions individually for the blocks in the Simulink model from the MATLAB command line

You can access the port width, data type, and dimensions of individual blocks in a Simulink model by using the GET_PARAM function and the following properties:

"CompiledPortDataType"

"CompiledPortWidth"

"CompiledPortDimensions"

The simulation has to be running or compiled in order for the above properties to return the correct value. You can "compile" the model and then use the GET_PARAM command as follows:-

modelname([],[],[],'compile')
q=get_param(gcb,'PortHandles');
get_param(q.Inport,'CompiledPortDataType')
get_param(q.Inport,'CompiledPortWidth')
modelname([],[],[],'term')

where modelname is the name of your Simulink model.
