ssGetDTypeIdFromMxArray - Get the data type of an S-function parameter

Syntax

DTypeId ssGetDTypeIdFromMxArray(const mxArray *m)

Arguments

m

MATLAB array representing the parameter.

Returns

The data type ID of an S-function parameter represented by a MATLAB array. Returns INVALID_DTYPE_ID if the MATLAB data type does not map to any built-in Simulink data type ID.

Description

This function returns an enumerated type representing the data type. The enumerated type DTypeId is defined in simstruc_types.h. The following table shows the equivalency of Simulink, MATLAB, and C data types.

If a MATLAB data type, for example mxSTRUCT_CLASS, does not map to any Simulink data type, the return value is INVALID_DTYPE_ID. Otherwise the return value is one of the enum values in DTypeId. For example, for mxUINT16_CLASS, the return value is SS_UINT16.

Note   Use ssGetSFcnParam to get the array representing the parameter.

Languages

C, C++

Example

See the S-function sfun_dtype_param.c used in sfcndemo_dtype_param.mdl to learn how to use data typed parameters in an S-function.
