Is is possible to access the simulink block names in C-S-function.

Hello,

I have a problem in sending the character array as an input to the S-Function block. I could not find a way to send a string as an input to my S-function. Instead I thought of using the name that is displayed under every Simulink block. So can any one of you please suggest me if there is a way to access the Simulink block name in my S-function.

Thank you

Priyanka

Hi Priyanka,

The ssGetPath macro will allow you to get the full path to the block in question. This is going to be the closest that you will get to receiving the name of the calling block. From there you may be able to some manipulation to grab just the block name at the end of the character array.
