Access embedded coder settings programmatically

Hello, is it possible to edit/access the current embedded coder settings from a script? Alternatively, is it possible to at least create a dump of the currently used ones?

Hi fraben,

I understand that you would like to know whether you can edit and configure Embedded Coder’s settings from a script and you would like to create a dump of the current configurations as well.

You can obtain the model’s configurations using the “getActiveConfigSet” function. You can use this function as:

cs = getActiveConfigSet(model); 

The following documentation link will give you more details about the function:

• https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/slref/getactiveconfigset.html

Once you get the configurations you can interact with code generation options using “get_param” and “set_param”. An example for this would be:

deftParamBehvr = get_param(model,'DefaultParameterBehavior'); % Get 
set_param(model,'DefaultParameterBehavior',deftParamBehvr)     % Set 

For creating a dump of the current configuration, you can use the “saveAs” function. This will create a dump of all the configurations in an M file. For example:

% Save the model's configuration parameters to the file 'MyConfig.m'. 
saveAs(cs,'MyConfig'); 

You can refer to the below mentioned documentation for further clarifications:

Hope this helps and solves your query regarding editing Embedded Coder configurations programmatically!
