Rule

Sub ID a

• Code Generate Templates (.cgt) files

• mpt.Signal description

• mpt.Parameter description

Custom Parameter

Not Applicable

Example — Incorrect

Included in a .cgt file.

Included in the mpt.Signal description.

Rationale

Sub ID a:

• Since comment symbols /* and */ are automatically assigned in the generated code, comments can be unintentionally nested and behave differently than expected.

Verification

Model Advisor check: Check for use of C-style comment symbols (Simulink Check)
