Enable portable word sizes
Description
Allow portability across host and target processors that support different word sizes.
You can enable portable word sizes to support software-in-the-loop (SIL) testing of your
generated code. For a SIL simulation, you use the top-model or Model
block SIL simulation mode, or select SIL in the Configuration Parameters > Create block field.

Settings
Default: off
On Generate conditional processing macros to support compilation of generated code on a processor that supports a different word size than the target processor on which production code is run. This option allows you to use the same generated code for SIL testing on your development computer and production deployment on the target processor. For example, you can perform SIL testing on a 64-bit development computer and deploy the code on a 16-bit target processor.
OffDoes not generate portable code.
Dependencies
When you use this option, you should select Test hardware is the same as production hardware on the Hardware Implementation pane.
