Write S-Functions

S-Functions and Code Generation

Use S-functions to extend Simulink support for simulation and code generation.

Build Integrated Code Within the Simulink Environment

Add support files and control model code generation and builds within the Simulink Environment.

Write Noninlined S-Function

Implement your algorithm according to the S-function API by writing a C or C++ MEX S-function.

Write Wrapper S-Function and TLC Files

Create S-functions that serve as wrappers for existing code.

Write Fully Inlined S-Functions

Inline your algorithm in the TLC file for code generation.

• S-Functions That Support Expression Folding
• S-Functions That Specify Port Scope and Reusability
• S-Functions That Specify Sample Time Inheritance Rules
• S-Functions That Support Code Reuse

Write Fully Inlined S-Functions with mdlRTW Routine

Use the mdlRTW callback method in an inlined S-function.

S-Functions for Multirate Multitasking Environments

Explains how to handle rate-grouped tasks in multirate, port-based sample time S-functions.

Accelerate Simulation, Reuse Code, or Protect Intellectual Property by Using S-Function Target

Generate a shared library from a model or subsystem that you can load dynamically into another application.

Legacy Code Tool

Import Calls to External Code into Generated Code with Legacy Code Tool

Import calls to external code for utility functions, lookup tables, filters, and device drivers into the Simulink environment for simulation and code generation.

S-Function Builder Block

Generate S-Function from Subsystem

Apply Generate S-Function operation to create an S-Function from a subsystem block.
