How Working with Enumerated Data Is Different for Code Generation

To generate efficient standalone code for enumerated data, you must define and use enumerated types differently than you normally would when running your code in the MATLAB environment:

What's Different	More Information
Supports integer-based enumerated types only	Enumerated Types Supported for Code Generation
Name of each enumerated data type must be unique	Naming Enumerated Types for Code Generation
Each enumerated data type must be defined in a separate file on the MATLAB path	How to Define Enumerated Data for Code Generation and How to Generate Code for Enumerated Data
Restricted set of operations	Operations on Enumerated Data Allowed for Code Generation
Restricted use in for-loops	Restrictions on Use of Enumerated Data in for-Loops
