ssGetPlacementGroup - Get the name of the placement group of a block

Syntax

const char_T *ssGetPlacementGroup(SimStruct *S)

Arguments

S

SimStruct representing an S-Function block. The block must be either a source block (i.e., a block without input ports) or a sink block (i.e., a block without output ports).

Returns

A pointer (char_T *) to the string indicating the name of the S-function placement group.

Description

Use this macro in mdlInitializeSizes to get the name of this block's placement group. A placement group is an advanced feature for S-functions that are either a source block (i.e., a block without input ports) or a sink block (i.e., a block without output ports). All S-functions with the same placement group will be placed adjacent to each other in the sorted list. There is no correlation between different placement groups.

Note   This macro is typically used to create device driver blocks.

Languages
