Interactive management of all Simulink enumeration classes loaded in memory
Easily manage your Simulink enumeration types defined as MATLAB class files, created with Simulink.defineIntEnumType, or stored in a Simulink data dictionary, without writing a single line of code.
Enumeration classes can be defined in 3 ways:
  • Dynamic enumeration class in memory only, created with Simulink.defineIntEnumType.
  • Enumeration class defined by a class m-file.
  • Enumeration class stored in a Simulink data dictionary.
Note: The Source of Truth is still your project files. This tool is only an assistant to manage the enumeration classes but it doesn't hold any knowledge on the enumerations, so you can stop or restart using this tool anytime during your project life.
Available features
  • List all enumeration classes loaded in memory.
  • Create/edit/delete enumeration classes.
  • Rename enumeration classes.
  • Find all uses of an enumeration class in models, data dictionaries, m-files or base workspace.
  • Export an enumeration class to a m-script using Simulink.defineIntEnumType.
  • Convert a dynamic enumeration class into a class file, or store it in a data dictionary.
  • Move enumeration classes to a Simulink data dictionary.
  • Move enumeration classes from a Simulink data dictionary to class files (API available).
  • Create enumeration classes used to monitor chart states.
Installation
Installation from the Add-On Explorer with the Add button may fail due to IT constraints. In that case, from the File Exchange page below, download the mlappinstall installer and execute it from the MATLAB Command Window. The ENUMGR app will appear in the APPS section of your MATLAB toolstrip.
