plccoderpref

Manage user preferences

Description

plccoderpref displays the current set of user preferences, including the default target IDE.

plccoderpref('plctargetide') returns the current default target IDE. This default can be the target IDE set previously, or the factory default. The factory default is 'codesys23'.

plccoderpref('plctargetide', preference_value ) sets the default target IDE to the one that you specify in preference_value. This command sets the preference_value to persist as the default target IDE for future MATLAB® sessions.

plccoderpref('plctargetide', 'default') sets the default target IDE to the factory default target IDE ('codesys23').

plccoderpref('plctargetidepaths') returns a 1-by-1 structure of the installation paths of supported target IDEs.

plccoderpref('plctargetidepaths','default') sets the contents of the 1-by-1 structure of the installation paths to the default values.

plccoderpref('plctargetlist') displays the target IDEs that appear in the reduced Target IDE list in the Simulink® Configuration Parameters dialog box. For more information, see Target IDE and Show Full Target List.

plccoderpref('plctargetlist',targetlist) sets the target IDEs that appear in the reduced Target IDE list to the values that you specify in targetlist.
