Overview of Stateflow Objects
This section describes the different types of available Stateflow objects. Its topics are as follows:
- Graphical Objects -- Introduces you to Stateflow's graphical objects (charts, states, boxes, functions, transitions, and junctions) that you draw in the Stateflow diagram editor.
- Nongraphical Objects -- Introduces you to Stateflow's nongraphical objects (data and events) that are represented textually in the Stateflow diagram editor or in the Stateflow Explorer tool.
- The Data Dictionary -- Introduces you to the data dictionary that unites all Stateflow objects (graphical and nongraphical) in a hierarchical database.
- How Hierarchy Is Represented -- Shows you how Stateflow's hierarchy of objects in the data dictionary is represented for graphical and nongraphical objects.
While this chapter defines most of these relationships, they are dealt with in more detail in Stateflow Semantics, which describes the behavior of Stateflow charts.
