Add a "Function Call Output" in a "Embedded MATLAB Function block" from command window

Hello,

I would like to know how to add a "Function Call Output" in a "Embedded MATLAB Function block" from the command Window.

Thanks

Do you mean you want to produce a function-call signal to use with a Function-Call Subsystem? If yes, I don't think this is possible with an (Embedded) MATLAB Function block at all. Have you been able to do this manually (let alone from the command prompt)?

EDIT

Turns out, it is possible to generate function-calls from a MATLAB Function block. After playing with the Stateflow API, I was able to come up with this:

S=sfroot;
B = S.find('Name','MATLAB Function','-isa','Stateflow.EMChart');
fc = Stateflow.FunctionCall(B); % add a function call output to block

Caveat: This is not documented, so there is no guarantee that it will work in future releases.

Hello,

I would like to do, from the command prompt, the following manual actions :

- From an Embedded MATLAB Function block, double-click on it in order to open the Embedded MATLAB Editor.

- In the "Tools" menu, click on "Edit Data/Ports". It will open the "Ports and Data Manager"

- In the toolbar, click on the "Add Function Call Output" pushbutton.

Ah! You're right! This is possible. I've updated my answer.

Thank you very much.

I have other questions about function call outputs. I created a new post :

Could you have a look please ?

Thanks
