Class: slreq.Link
Namespace: slreq

Retrieve URL that opens link source

Since R2023a

Syntax

URL = getSourceURL(myLink)

Description

URL = getSourceURL(myLink) returns the URL that opens the source of the link, myLink.

Input Arguments

myLink — Link

slreq.Link object

Link, specified as an slreq.Link object.

Output Arguments

URL — URL to open link source

character vector

URL to open the link source, returned as a character vector. Entering the URL in a web browser opens the link source, such as code in MATLAB^® program files or Simulink^® model artifacts, in MATLAB.

Examples

Return URL of Link Source

Suppose you have a link set in the current folder, signals~m.slmx, and you want to retrieve a URL that directs to the link source for each link.

Load the link set with the slreq.load function.

linkSet = slreq.load("signals~m.slmx");

Retrieve the links as a slreq.Link object array with the getLinks function.

links = linkSet.getLinks;

Create a for-loop that retrieves the URL to each link source of the links in the slreq.Link object array.

linkSourceURLs = cell(length(links),1);
for k = 1:length(links)
  linkSourceURLs{k} = links(k).getSourceURL;
end

Enter the URL text of one of the elements in linkSourceURLs in a web browser to open the link destination in MATLAB.
