MATLAB: How to detect data type of Inport/Outport Signals of SIMULINK model via MATLAB code

simulink

I am making a testing tool in which I need to detect the data type of signals coming out of Inports as well as data type of signals feeding Outports. I require to do this via MATLAB code.

Is there any command or method via which we can get details of data type of any link between two blocks of SIMULINK model to our MATLAB code?

to filter out Inports and outports you can use find_sys() and to get their data types, for every inport or outport block use

get_param('Inport or Outport Block Name','OutDataTypeStr')

MATLAB: What does the following syntax do

I think there is a line missing at the beginning:

Root_InPorts = find_system(Search_Path,'SearchDepth',1,'BlockType','Inport');

This code counts the number of Inport blocks and Outport blocks in the first level of a Simulink model, and provides this info in the variables Num_Of_Root_InPorts and Num_Of_Root_OutPorts respectively.

MATLAB: Do I get the error ‘Input port cannot accept mixed data types’ in the Simulink model that has an Atomic Subsystem

Signal elements connected to a subsystem inport can be of differing numeric and data types except in the following circumstance:

- When a subsystem contains an Enable or Trigger block

- When the inport is connected directly to an outport, the input elements must be of the same type

For an example illustrating these situations, information on Simulink's support for mixed data types and the inport block in the help documentation, type the following at the MATLAB prompt:

web([docroot,'/toolbox/simulink/slref/inport.html'])
