    Syntax

    setDefaultStereotype(profile,name)

    Description

    example

    setDefaultStereotype(profile,name) sets the default stereotype with name name for a profile profile. The stereotype must apply to components.

    Examples

    collapse all

    Create a profile for latency characteristics and save it.

    profile = systemcomposer.profile.Profile.createProfile("LatencyProfile");

latencybase = profile.addStereotype("LatencyBase");
latencybase.addProperty("latency",Type="double");
latencybase.addProperty("dataRate",Type="double",DefaultValue="10");

connLatency = profile.addStereotype("ConnectorLatency",...
Parent="LatencyProfile.LatencyBase");
connLatency.addProperty("secure",Type="boolean");
connLatency.addProperty("linkDistance",Type="double");

nodeLatency = profile.addStereotype("NodeLatency",...
Parent="LatencyProfile.LatencyBase");
nodeLatency.addProperty("resources",Type="double",DefaultValue="1");

portLatency = profile.addStereotype("PortLatency",...
Parent="LatencyProfile.LatencyBase");
portLatency.addProperty("queueDepth",Type="double");
portLatency.addProperty("dummy",Type="int32");

profile.save

    Set the default stereotype.

    profile.setDefaultStereotype("NodeLatency")

    Create a model and apply the profile to the model. Open the Profile Editor.

    modelName = "archModel";
arch = systemcomposer.createModel(modelName,true);
arch.applyProfile(LatencyProfile);
systemcomposer.profile.editor

    Get stereotypes on the root architecture.

    stereotypes = getStereotypes(arch.Architecture)
    stereotypes =

  1×1 cell array

    {'LatencyProfile.NodeLatency'}

    Input Arguments

    collapse all

    Profile, specified as a systemcomposer.profile.Profile object.

    Stereotype name, specified as a character vector or string. The name of the stereotype must be unique within the profile.

    Data Types: char | string

    architecture

    A System Composer™ architecture represents a system of components and how they interface with each other structurally and behaviorally.

    Different types of architectures describe different aspects of systems. You can use views to visualize a subset of components in an architecture. You can define parameters on the architecture level using the Parameter Editor.
    model

    A System Composer model is the file that contains architectural information, including components, ports, connectors, interfaces, and behaviors.

    Perform operations on a model:

    • Extract the root-level architecture contained in the model.

    • Apply profiles.

    • Link interface data dictionaries.

    • Generate instances from model architecture.

    A System Composer model is stored as an SLX file.

    component

    A component is a nontrivial, nearly independent, and replaceable part of a system that fulfills a clear function in the context of an architecture. A component defines an architectural element, such as a function, a system, hardware, software, or other conceptual entity. A component can also be a subsystem or subfunction.

    Represented as a block, a component is a part of an architecture model that can be separated into reusable artifacts. Transfer information between components with:

    		Components
    port

    A port is a node on a component or architecture that represents a point of interaction with its environment. A port permits the flow of information to and from other components or systems.

    There are different types of ports:

    • Component ports are interaction points on the component to other components.

    • Architecture ports are ports on the boundary of the system, whether the boundary is within a component or the overall architecture model.

    		Ports
    connector

    Connectors are lines that provide connections between ports. Connectors describe how information flows between components or architectures.

    A connector allows two components to interact without defining the nature of the interaction. Set an interface on a port to define how the components interact.

    		Connections

    stereotype

    A stereotype is a custom extension of the modeling language. Stereotypes provide a mechanism to extend the architecture language elements by adding domain-specific metadata.

    Apply stereotypes to model elements such as root-level architecture, component architecture, connectors, ports, data interfaces, value types, functions, requirements, and links. Functions only apply to software architectures. You must have a Requirements Toolbox™ license to apply stereotypes to requirements and links. A model element can have multiple stereotypes. Stereotypes provide model elements with a common set of property fields, such as mass, cost, and power.

    		Extend Architectural Design Using Stereotypes
    property

    A property is a field in a stereotype. You can specify property values for each element to which the stereotype is applied.

    Use properties to store quantitative characteristics, such as weight or speed, that are associated with a model element. Properties can also be descriptive or represent a status. You can view and edit the properties of each element in the architecture model using the Property Inspector.
    profile

    A profile is a package of stereotypes that you can use to create a self-consistent domain of element types.

    Author profiles and apply profiles to a model using the Profile Editor. You can store stereotypes for a project in one or several profiles. When you save profiles, they are stored in XML files.
