Construction of Generated Identifiers

For GRT and RSim targets, the code generator automatically constructs identifiers for variables and functions in the generated code. These identifiers represent:

• Signals and parameters that have Auto storage class

• Subsystem function names that are not user-defined

• Stateflow^® names

The components of a generated identifier include

• The root model name, followed by

• The name of the generating object (signal, parameter, state, and so on), followed by

• Unique name-mangling text

The code generator conditionally generates the name-mangling text to resolve potential conflicts with other generated identifiers.

To configure how the code generator names identifiers and objects, see:

• Specify Identifier Length to Avoid Naming Collisions

• Specify Reserved Names for Generated Identifiers

The code generator reserves certain words for its own use as keywords of the generated code language. For more information, see Reserved Keywords.

With an Embedded Coder^® license, you can specify parameters to control identifier formats, mangle length, scalar inlined parameters, and Simulink^® data object naming rules. For more information, see Customize Generated Identifier Naming Rules.
