B-2
Application Modules − With respect to Real-Time Workshop program
architecture, these are collections of programs that implement functions
carried out by the system dependent, system independent, and application
components.
Block Target File − A file that describes how a specific Simulink block is to be
transformed, to a language such as C, based on the block’s description in the
Real-Time Workshop file (
model.rtw). Typically, there is one block target file
for each Simulink block.
File Extensions − Below is a table that lists the file extensions associated with
Simulink, the Target Language Compiler, and the Real-Time Workshop.
