How do I define a structure that has an element which is an array?

How do I define a structure that has an element which is an array and for which there are sub elements. I have composed a simple example below of what I want to do along with a failed attempt at the needed assert statements.
function y = payroll(personnel)
%#codegen
% Specify the class of the input as struct.
assert(isstruct(personnel));
% Specify the class and size of the fields r and i
% in the order in which you defined them.
assert(isa(personnel.num_employees,'int32'));
assert(isa(personnel.employee,'int32'));
assert(all(size(personnel.employee) == [5 1]));
assert(isa(personnel.employee(1).salary,'int32'));
for i = personnel.num_employees
total_payroll = total_payroll + personnel.name(i).salary;
end
y = total_payroll;
end

My purpose is to generate C code using Matlab Coder. I get an error related to my failure to properly define the employee element of my structure since it is an array and has a sub element uder it.

This line seems wrong:
assert(isa(personnel.employee,'int32'));
In your code employee is supposed to be a struct with sub-field name and salary? Once you make it a struct, you then also need to set its class and size of the fields name and salary.

It finally works. Apparently you have to define the arrayed sub elements in the same way that you define the main structure. The following Matlab code works and succesfully produces the C++ code that follows.
Matlab code:
function y = payroll(personnel)
%#codegen
% Specify the class of the input as struct.
assert(isstruct(personnel));
% Specify the class and size of the fields r and i
% in the order in which you defined them.
assert(isa(personnel.num_employees,'int32'));
assert(isstruct(personnel.employee));
assert(all(size(personnel.employee) == [5 1]));
assert(isa(personnel.employee(1).salary,'double'));
total_payroll = 0;
for i = 1 : personnel.num_employees
total_payroll = total_payroll + personnel.employee(i).salary;
end
y = total_payroll;
end
Matlab Coder produced C++ code:
real_T payroll(const b_struct_T personnel)
{
real_T y;
int32_T i;
y = 0.0;
for (i = 1; i <= personnel.num_employees; i++) {
y += personnel.employee[i - 1].salary;
}
return y;
}

1. Find out which assertion fails. The code looks fine.
2. Replace the 'for' loop with
y = sum([personnel.name.salary]);

This will crash, if the personnel.employee has more than 2 dimensions:
all(size(personnel.employee) == [5 1])
Better:
isequal(size(personnel.employee), [5 1])

total_payroll = total_payroll + personnel.name(i).salary;
total_payroll is never defined before being used for the first time!

Thanks, you are correct. I forgot to initialize it. The code is just a made up simplistic example that addresses the problem I am having in my real code in regards to defining a structure with elements which are arrays for the C++ code generation.
