pathsToReferencedModel

Given a model reference hierarchy, use the pathsToReferencedModel function to get the models and corresponding Model blocks between a top model and a referenced model.

Open the example project.

openProject("ModelReferenceHierarchy");

A project startup task opens the sldemo_mdlref_depgraph model, which is the top model in a model hierarchy.

Get the models and corresponding blocks between the sldemo_mdlref_depgraph top model and the sldemo_mdlref_F2C referenced model.

topmodel = "sldemo_mdlref_depgraph";
refmodel = "sldemo_mdlref_F2C";
[models,blocks] = pathsToReferencedModel(topmodel,refmodel)

models = 4x1 cell
    {'sldemo_mdlref_depgraph'    }
    {'sldemo_mdlref_outdoor_temp'}
    {'sldemo_mdlref_heater'      }
    {'sldemo_mdlref_F2C'         }

blocks = 
  1x2 BlockPath array with properties:

    SubPath
    isLoadingModel
    isSavingModel

The returned models array includes four models, including the specified top and bottom models.

The returned blocks array includes one Simulink.BlockPath object for each instance of the referenced model. Based on dimensions of the array, the model hierarchy references the sldemo_mdlref_F2C model twice.

Inspect the first Simulink.BlockPath object.

blocks(1)

ans = 
  Simulink.BlockPath
  Package: Simulink

  Block Path:
    'sldemo_mdlref_depgraph/outdoor temp'
      'sldemo_mdlref_outdoor_temp/Fahrenheit to Celsius'

  Use the getBlock method to access block path character vectors from this object.

Each Model block in the block path is given relative to its parent model.

Inspect the second Simulink.BlockPath object.

blocks(2)

ans = 
  Simulink.BlockPath
  Package: Simulink

  Block Path:
    'sldemo_mdlref_depgraph/thermostat'
      'sldemo_mdlref_heater/Fahrenheit to Celsius'

  Use the getBlock method to access block path character vectors from this object.

Each Model block in the block path is given relative to its parent model.
