Description

An RTW.BuildInfo object contains information for compiling and linking generated code.

Creation

Syntax

buildInformation = RTW.BuildInfo

Description

example

buildInformation = RTW.BuildInfo returns a build information object. You can use the object to specify information for compiling and linking generated code. For example:

  • Compiler options

  • Preprocessor identifier definitions

  • Linker options

  • Source files and paths

  • Include files and paths

  • Precompiled external libraries

When you build generated code, the build process stores an RTW.BuildInfo object in the buildInfo.mat file. To retrieve the object, from the code generation folder that contains the buildInfo.mat file, run:

bi=load('buildInfo.mat');
bi.buildInfo
ans = 

  BuildInfo with properties:

           DisplayLabel: 'Build Info'
                  Group: ''

The object contains build information.

This example shows how to create an RTW.BuildInfo object and register source files.

Create an RTW.BuildInfo object.

buildInfo = RTW.BuildInfo;

Register source files.

buildInfo.ComponentName = 'foo1';
addSourceFiles(buildInfo, 'foo1.c');

Specify the build method and create a static library.

tmf = fullfile(tmffolder, 'ert_vcx64.tmf');
buildResult1 = codebuild(pwd, buildInfo, tmf)
