datatypemanager
Purpose Open Data Type Manager
datatypemanager produces a warning and will be removed in a future
version.
Syntax datatypemanager(cc)
cc2 = datatypemanager(cc)
Description datatypemanager(cc) opens the Data Type Manager (DTM) with data
type information about the project to which
cc refers. With the type
manager open, you can add type definitions (typedefs) from your project
to MATLAB software so it can interpret them. You add your typedefs
because MATLAB software cannot determine or understand typedefs in
your function prototypes remotely across the interface to CCS.
Each custom type definition in your prototype must appear on the
Typedef name (Equivalent data type) list before you can use th e
typedef from MATLAB software with a fu n ction object.
When the DTM opens, a variety of information and options displays in
the Data Type Manager dialog box:
• Typedef name (Equivalent data type) — provide s a list of default
data types. When you create a typede f, it ap pears add ed to this list.
• Add typedef —openstheAdd T ypedef dialog box so you can add
one or more typedefs to your project. Your added typedef appears on
the Typedef name (Equivalent data type) list. Also, when you
pass the
cc object to the DT M, and then add a typedef, the command
cc.type
returns a list of the data types in the object including the typedefs
you added.
• Remove typedef — remov es a se lected ty pede f from the Typedef
name (Equivalent data type) list.
• Load session — loads a previously saved session so you can use the
typedefs you defined earlier without reentering them.
