Question regarding: SimulinkCoder LibGetT() & Support absolute time

Hi,

I have a ERT based code generation setup where I maintain a extra TLC file for adapting the from the ERT interface to my desired API.

In this extra TLC file I make use of LibGetT() to access the 'absolute time'. This requires 'SupportAbsoluteTime' parameter to be set to 'on'. However, the following functionality in the 'SupportAbsoluteTime' troubles me:

"If you select this option and the model does not include blocks that use time values, the target does not generate the counters."

My model does not contain blocks which requires absolute time therefore when building the code which use the LibGetT() fails: error C2039: 'Timing' : is not a member of 'tag_RTM_SimulinkModel'

However, if I add a block in the simulink model which requires absolute time the build is fine.

Is there any way to enforce that the 'absolute time counters' are generated even when no blocks in the model require them?

If the documentation already points out that this is a limitation, I think you may need to submit an enhancement request to be able to enforce that. Please do so via MathWorks Tech Support.
