Syntax

depType = getDeploymentType(coderMapObj)

Description

depType = getDeploymentType(coderMapObj) returns the deployment type of the model specified by code mappings object coderMapObj. The deployment type controls the code interfaces at different levels of a model hierarchy. The code generator uses the deployment type to:

  • Enforce peer and nesting rules in the model hierarchy.

  • Map model elements to code interface definitions.

  • Generate code that uses the appropriate interface to connect to other parts of the hierarchy.

Examples

The deployment type of a model controls the code interfaces at different levels of a model hierarchy.

To access the deployment type of a model, use the getDeploymentType function.

openExample("CounterModel.slx");
cm = coder.mapping.utils.create("CounterModel");
depType = getDeploymentType(cm)
depType =

    'Automatic'

The default deployment type of a model is Automatic.

To specify the deployment type of a model, use the setDeploymentType function.

setDeploymentType(cm,"Subcomponent")

Input Arguments

collapse all

Code mapping object (model code mappings), returned by a call to function coder.mapping.api.get.

Output Arguments

collapse all

The deployment type of the model code mappings object, returned as Automatic, Component, or Subcomponent.

Deployment TypeDescription
Automatic

Embedded Coder® determines the deployment type based on the model hierarchy context

Component

The top model that generates code. The model generates a standalone algorithm. The component code exposes its interface to other components in the system.

Component deployment type is only valid for models with a service interface code configuration.

SubcomponentA model reference that a component model uses. The generated code entry points are symbolically scoped to the parent component.
