Features introduced in this version are described here:
You use the objects, functions, and methods provided by the automation interface component to interact with the Green Hills®MULTI® development environment from the MATLAB command prompt. You can load, add to, and build projects, read and write to processor memory, and manipulate directories and project configurations.
The Automation Interface component of Embedded IDE Link MU software supports the processors listed in Supported Versions of Green Hills®MULTI®. To use the software, you must have Green HillsMULTI, version 5.0.1 for NEC® V850, Analog Devices® Blackfin®, or Freescale™ MPC55xx. For more details, refer to Supported Processors
.
The project generator component enables you to generate code from Simulink models into the IDE as Green Hills® MULTI® projects. After you create your model, you add a target preferences block to your model and set your model configuration parameters for the code generation process. Adding the target preferences block enables your model to be the source for code for a Green Hills MULTI project for one of the supported processors.
Embedded IDE Link MU software supports the following processors:
Analog Devices Blackfin®
Freescale MPC55xx
Freescale MPC7400
NEC V850
To support the Project Generator component for creating Green HillsMULTI projects, Embedded IDE Link™ MU software provides a block library, multilinklib, that contains the block libraries shown in the following table to enable you to configure Simulink® models to generate projects and code for the supported processors.
| Block Libraries in multilinklib | Blocks in Library |
|---|---|
| Target Preferences (multilinklib_tgtpref) | Target Preferences |
| Core Support (multilinklib_coresupport) | Memory Allocate, Memory Copy, Idle Task |
| MPC5500 Support (multilinklib_mpc5500) | HW/SW Interrupt |
| Blackfin Support (multilinklib_blackfin) | Hardware Interrupt |
To get started using Embedded IDE Link MU software to develop projects, refer to Getting Started in the online documentation.
The following table lists the processors and operating modes supported by this release of the Embedded IDE Link MU software.
| Processor or Family | Operating mode |
|---|---|
| Analog Devices Blackfin | Interrupt scheduler support |
| Freescale MPC5500 | Interrupt scheduler support |
| Freescale MPC7400 | Free running |
| NEC V850 | Free running |
Interrupt scheduler support indicates that the process running on the processor responds to software- and hardware-driven interrupts.
For information about the objects and methods available for you to use, refer to the online Help system, or enter the following command at the MATLAB® prompt:
help ghsmulti
MATLAB displays a list of the functions and methods in the Embedded IDE Link MU product, details about how to access help for those methods, and links to the product demos.
