Overwrite Saved Parameters File

Set the force_overwrite flag to true to overwrite the parameters file sfir_saved_parameters.m with the new parameters. If you do not specify this flag, HDL Coder™ generates an error and doesn't overwrite the parameter values. When you run hdlsaveparams with the parameter set to true, HDL Coder™ generates a warning that it overwrites the file.

hdlsaveparams('sfir_fixed/symmetric_fir', 'sfir_saved_params.m','true')

Warning: HDL parameters file 'sfir_saved_params.m' already exists. By
overwriting it now, you will lose any parameter settings made earlier.

View and Access Block Parameters

hparams

hparams = 

  1x4 struct array with fields:

    object
    parameter
    value

To see specific non-default parameters saved in the structure, you can access individual elements of the structure.

hparams(2)

ans = 

  struct with fields:

       object: 'sfir_single'
    parameter: 'HDLSubsystem'
        value: 'sfir_single/symmetric_fir'

To view the parameters and values specified for the model, in the MATLAB™ Worksplace, double-click the hparams variable. You see the fields of the structure array and the corresponding values in the MATLAB Editor.

Input Arguments
