why MATLAB on my PC hasn't embedded matlab function block in simulink?

operating system on my pc is windows 8 64 bit. I installed matlab 2014a 64bit, but hadn't ''embedded matlab function'' block in simulink .after, uninstalled it and install matlab 2014a 32bit. but it hasn't it too. what should I do???? help me please.

Answer 1

"Embedded MATLAB function block" was renamed to "MATLAB Function Block" without the word "embedded"

I worked so much with matlab function block for my project. It has many problems. I asked it from another person and said you should work with ''interpreted matlab function'' block.

[Walter Roberson]

Speaking relative to older releases,

http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/36656#answer_45873

"Actually, the MATLAB Function block has been renamed to Interpreted MATLAB Function block; and the Embedded MATLAB Function block has been renamed to MATLAB Function block."

Looking at http://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/slref/matlabfunction.html you can see that what is now known as MATLAB Function Block can be used in circumstances where you might want to generate C code for use on a target system -- but it is also used for Rapid Accelerator mode if I understand correctly.

An Interpreted MATLAB Function block is basically a call to a MATLAB function, with all the facilities of MATLAB available. However, those blocks cannot be accelerated or converted to C or C++ code.

If you are designing code to be deployed to a controller (as mentioned in your other Questions) then you should be working with what is now known as MATLAB Function Block.

dear Mr Roberson, your opinion is correct exactly and embedded matlab function changes name to matlab function block from version R2012b . I saw this in one of the question and answer of mathwork team.

http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/100659-how-do-i-set-user-defined-parameters-in-an-embedded-matlab-function-block-from-the-matlab-command-pr

but I do this : install MATLAB 2010b and has embedded matlab function!!! I couldn't work with matlab function at all.... thanks so much for your replies.

[Walter Roberson]

That article was incorrect; the change to the name of Embedded MATLAB Function was in R2011a. However, it should exist in R2010b.

What difficulty are you encountering with it, and why not use a newer version with the new name?

[saeede soleymani]

dear Mr Roberson, you help me so much. all of my questions answered by you and have a extensive knowledge about MATLAB. I write a code for inverted pendulum control. I simulate pendulum with simmechanics and want control it with a code. code run in embedded matlab function with some problems that I can't solve yet, but the same code doesn't work in matlab function!! I think matlab function is too difficult than emf block or so advanced and complex.

Please describe the problems you are encountering.
