MATLAB: How to define separate includes for legacy and non-legacy code when generating code

simulink coder

I am currently working on a custom target file in order to separate my includes into legacy includes and non-legacy includes such that I can manage them separately. What is the best way to do this?

Best Answer

The best approach to this workflow is to create a custom target file which includes a set of rtwoptions allowing the separate specification of standard includes and legacy code includes. This can then be linked to a custom TMF variable which can be used appropriately in the code. You can find a general summary of this workflow in our documentation using the link below:

http://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2015b/rtw/ug/customizing-system-target-files.html#f6351

A summary of the steps which need to be taken are shown below:

1) Define an element in the 'rtwoptions' file to capture the location of the directory

rtwoptions(2).prompt         = 'Custom Legacy Code Directory';
rtwoptions(2).type           = 'Edit';
rtwoptions(2).enable         = 'on';  
rtwoptions(2).default        =  'C:\LegacyCodeInc';   
rtwoptions(2).popupstrings  = '';
rtwoptions(2).tlcvariable   = 'CustomLegacyCodeDir';
rtwoptions(2).tooltip       = '';
rtwoptions(2).callback      = '';
rtwoptions(2).opencallback  = '';
rtwoptions(2).closecallback = '';
rtwoptions(2).makevariable  = 'CUSTOM_LEGACY_CODE_DIR';

2) Modify your TMF in order to expand the CUSTOM_LEGACY_CODE_DIR makevariable

# Additional file include paths
|>START_EXPAND_INCLUDES<|
MATLAB_INCLUDES = $(MATLAB_INCLUDES);|>EXPAND_DIR_NAME<||>END_EXPAND_INCLUDES<|
ADD_LEGACY_INCLUDES = |>CUSTOM_LEGACY_CODE_DIR<|;
INCLUDE = .;$(RELATIVE_PATH_TO_ANCHOR);$(MATLAB_INCLUDES); $(ADD_LEGACY_INCLUDES); $(INCLUDE)
!if "$(SHARED_SRC_DIR)" != ""
INCLUDE = $(INCLUDE);$(SHARED_SRC_DIR)
!endif

After expansion, the code above will appear as the following

# Additional file include paths
MATLAB_INCLUDES = $(MATLAB_INCLUDES);$(START_DIR)\bouncing_ball02302873_legacy_include_rtw
MATLAB_INCLUDES = $(MATLAB_INCLUDES);$(START_DIR)
MATLAB_INCLUDES = $(MATLAB_INCLUDES);$(MATLAB_ROOT)\toolbox\physmod\mech\c
MATLAB_INCLUDES = $(MATLAB_INCLUDES);$(MATLAB_ROOT)\toolbox\physmod\common\foundation\core\c
ADD_LEGACY_INCLUDES = C:\LegacyCodeInc;
INCLUDE = .;$(RELATIVE_PATH_TO_ANCHOR);$(MATLAB_INCLUDES); $(ADD_LEGACY_INCLUDES); $(INCLUDE)
!if "$(SHARED_SRC_DIR)" != ""
INCLUDE = $(INCLUDE);$(SHARED_SRC_DIR)
!endif

MATLAB: How to fix this error (c28069pmsmfoc_ert2.slx)

I understand that you want to build "c28069pmsmfoc_ert" Simulink model.

In order to build the model, you need to setup TI Code Composer Studio (CCS) on your machine. You can refer to the following link for further information about this:

MATLAB: How to format sections of text within a paragraph in Report Generator

There are several ways to achieve this result.

1. Applying formatting by using properties of the "Text" object and using "append" to add text to Paragraph.

Example with a Document:

import mlreportgen.dom.*;
doc = Document('mydoc','docx');
para = Paragraph('A ');
para.WhiteSpace = 'pre';
append(doc,para);
boldText = Text('magic square');
boldText.Bold = 1;
append(para, boldText);
append(para, ' is an N-by-N ');
colorText = Text('matrix');
colorText.Color = 'red';
colorText.Italic = 1;
append(para, colorText);
append(para, [' constructed from the integers 1 through N^2 '... 
    'with equal row, column, and diagonal sums.']);
close(doc);
rptview('mydoc','docx');

Example with a Report:

import mlreportgen.report.*;
import mlreportgen.dom.*;
doc = Report('myrpt','docx');
para = Paragraph('A ');
para.WhiteSpace = 'pre';
add(doc, para);
boldText = Text('magic square');
boldText.Bold = 1;
append(para, boldText);
append(para, ' is an N-by-N ');
colorText = Text('matrix');
colorText.Color = 'red';
colorText.Italic = 1;
append(para, colorText);
append(para, [' constructed from the integers 1 through N^2 '... 
    'with equal row, column, and diagonal sums.']);
close(doc);
rptview('myrpt','docx');

2. Applying formatting by using the "HTML" object and HTML tags, including creating a list.

Example with a Document:

import mlreportgen.dom.*;
doc = Document('mydoc_html','docx');
para = HTML( ...
['<p style="white-space:pre">A <b>magic square</b> is an N-by-N ' ...
'<span style="color:red;font-style:italic">matrix</span>' ...
' constructed from the integers 1 through N^2 ' ...
'with equal row, column, and diagonal sums.</p>']);
append(doc,para);
ol = HTML(['<ol>', ...
    '<li> <b> bold item </b> </li>',...
     '<li> normal item </li>',...
     '<li style="font-style:italic"> italic item </li>',...
     '<li style="color:red"> colorful item </li>'...
     '</ol>']);
 append(doc,ol); 
close(doc);
rptview('mydoc_html','docx');

Example with a Report:

import mlreportgen.report.*;
import mlreportgen.dom.*;
doc = Report('myrpt_html','docx');
para = HTML( ...
['<p style="white-space:pre">A <b>magic square</b> is an N-by-N ' ...
'<span style="color:red;font-style:italic">matrix</span>' ...
' constructed from the integers 1 through N^2 ' ...
'with equal row, column, and diagonal sums.</p>']);
add(doc,para);
ol = HTML(['<ol>', ...
    '<li> <b> bold item </b> </li>',...
     '<li> normal item </li>',...
     '<li style="font-style:italic"> italic item </li>',...
     '<li style="color:red"> colorful item </li>'...
     '</ol>']);
 add(doc,ol); 
close(doc);
rptview('myrpt_html','docx');

3. Applying formatting by using Word styles from a template.

You would first need to create a Word template, and add the styles you would like to be able to apply to your text. You need to supply the template as an argument when creating a Document or a Report object. Then you can specify a style from that template for any Text objects you create.

Example with a Document:

(mytemplate.dotx attached)

import mlreportgen.dom.*;
doc = Document('newdocument','docx', 'mytemplate'); 
list = OrderedList({Text('This is normal text'),...
    Text('This is bold text', 'Strong'),...
    Text('This is red italic text', 'RedItalic')});
append(doc, list);
close(doc);

Example with a Report:

(mytemplate.dotx attached)

import mlreportgen.report.*;
import mlreportgen.dom.*;
doc = Report('newreport','docx', 'mytemplate'); 
list = OrderedList({Text('This is normal text'),...
    Text('This is bold text', 'Strong'),...
    Text('This is red italic text', 'RedItalic')});
add(doc, list)
close(doc);
