Alternate of set_param in simulink compatible with C coder.

Hi!

Hope you all are having a productive day.

My question is that i want to update parameters of a block but cannot use set_param because it is not Embedded Coder(C/C++) supported.

Is there any alternate to set_param in simulink compaqtible with Embedded coder.

Hi Daud,

You can try leveraging the “coder.extrinsic” function if you want to update the parameters of a block using the “set_param” function even though it is not supported by Embedded Coder (C/C++).

The function does not produce code for the body of the extrinsic function, in this case "set_param" function and instead uses the MATLAB engine to execute this call. Please refer to the below documentation to know more about “coder.extrinsic”:

Here is an example code for your reference:

% Add thie line before declaring/calling set_param in your script. 
coder.extrinsic('set_param')

Hope this helps!
