![]() ![]() Simulink Data Dictionaries exist as files having a standard file extension of. Today, we will look at some portions of the undocumented API for Simulink Data Dictionaries. MathWorks have not published an API for accessing dictionaries from code, indicating that it may possibly be available in a future release. Unfortunately, in production code generation environments there is frequently a need to interface this data with external tools such as software specification systems, documentation generators, and calibration tools. This interface supports importing and exporting dictionaries to m files and mat files. The GUI interface is clean, intuitive, and easy to use. In its initial implementation, the data dictionary interface is provided by the Simulink Model Explorer. This is great news for embedded systems developers who want the flexibility of using data objects and want to avoid using the base workspace with its potential for data corruption. This new feature provides the ability to store Data Types, Parameters, and Signals in database files. In 2014, MathWorks introduced the Simulink Data Dictionary. Today Donn explores a little-known yet quite useful aspect of Simulink. Donn has previously written a series of articles on Matlab’s previous-generation class-object system ( UDD).
