    run(dsWks,mscript)

    Description

    run(dsWks,mscript) executes the specified MATLAB® script in the data source workspace represented by the Simulink.data.DataSourceWorkspace object dsWks.

    While executing a script on the data source workspace, MATLAB temporarily changes the current folder to the folder that contains the script.

    Examples

    collapse all

    Write a short script that sets some variables in a data source workspace.

    % myscript.m
x = 10;
p = p+1;

    Before running the script, check the current value of variable p in the data source workspace object sourceWorkspace.

    getVariable(sourceWorkspace,'p')
    2

    Also check the value of variable x.

    getVariable(sourceWorkspace,'x')
    Error: undefined variable 'x'

    The output shows that x is not yet defined in the workspace.

    Now run the script myscript.m and check the values of p and x again.

    run(sourceWorkspace,'myscript.m');
getVariables(sourceWorkspace,["p" "x"])
    ans =

1x2 cell array

    {[3]}  {[10]}
