entryObj = addEntry(sectionObj,entryName) returns a coder.dictionary.Entry object that represents the new Embedded Coder Dictionary definition.

Input Arguments

sectionObj — Embedded Coder Dictionary section

coder.dictionary.Section object

Section in the Embedded Coder Dictionary, specified as a coder.dictionary.Section object. The section name identifies the type of code definition that addEntry creates.

defName — Name of Embedded Coder Dictionary definition

character vector | string scalar

Name of newly created Embedded Coder Dictionary definition, specified as a character vector or string scalar.

Examples

Add Storage Class to Embedded Coder Dictionary

Open the model RollAxisAutopilot and represent the Embedded Coder Dictionary by using a coder.Dictionary object. Use this object to access the Storage Classes section of the dictionary, which contains the storage class definitions.

openExample('RollAxisAutopilot')
coderDictionary = coder.dictionary.open('RollAxisAutopilot');

Create a coder.dictionary.Section object that represents the Storage Classes section of the Embedded Coder Dictionary.

storageClassesSect = getSection(coderDictionary, 'StorageClasses');

Add a storage class definition named MyStorageClass to the Storage Classes section. The storage class definition uses the default property settings. You can change these settings by using the set function.

newEntry = addEntry(storageClassesSect,'MyStorageClass')

newEntry = 

  Entry with properties:

          Name: 'MyStorageClass'
    DataSource: 'RollAxisAutopilot'
