Code generation for MATLAB® Classes

You can generate code for MATLAB classes, including value classes, handle classes, and System objects. In the generated C code, MATLAB classes are represented as structures. If you generate C++ code, the default behavior of the code generator is to produce C++ classes for the MATLAB classes. You must be aware of certain usage notes and limitations when using classes in your MATLAB code that is intended for code generation.
