Targets You Can Build
Code Generation for Stateflow Charts and Truth Table Blocks
You can generate code for models with Stateflow charts
and Truth Table blocks for these uses:
Code Generation for Simulation
A simulation target is a specification
of the generated code, custom code, and build type you use for generating
simulation code for Chart and Truth Table blocks in a model.
Whenever you simulate a model that contains Stateflow blocks, Stateflow software
generates code that compiles into an S-function MEX file (for details,
see S-Function MEX-Files). This
code enables the Stateflow blocks to interface with other blocks
in a Simulink model, the MATLAB base workspace, and the Stateflow Debugger.
This code is not suitable for production or rapid prototyping.
Code Generation for Production and Rapid Prototyping
An embeddable target is a specification
of the generated code, custom code, and build type you use for generating
production code for Chart and Truth Table blocks in a model.
Stateflow Coder and Real-Time Workshop software can work
together to generate embeddable code for Stateflow blocks. This
code is optimized for production and rapid prototyping, but does not
contain code to interface with other blocks in a Simulink model,
the MATLAB base workspace, and the Stateflow Debugger.

Software Requirements for Building Targets
To build targets for models with Stateflow charts or Truth
Table blocks, you must have a license for the software listed:
| Target to Build | Software to Use |
|---|
| Simulation target | Stateflow |
| Embeddable target | Stateflow Coder and Real-Time Workshop |
The default target type of Real-Time Workshop code
generation is generic real-time (grt). To build
other embeddable targets, you must have the appropriate license. See Available Targets in the Real-Time Workshop User's
Guide for more information.
