How can MATLAB code in an M-file query the current locale's character encoding without needing the Simulink toolbox?

(Note that slCharacterEncoding() and get_param() are both Simulink toolbox functions.)

Hi Michael,

You can utilize the following command to query the current locale's character encoding:

feature('locale')

Hope this helps!

Yes, that helps! Note that that returns a struct, with relevant fields named encoding, terminalEncoding, and jvmEncoding.
