run

Execute the specified MATLAB script in data source workspace

Since R2022b

Syntax

run(dsWks,mscript)

run(dsWks,mscript) executes the specified MATLAB^® script in the data source workspace represented by the Simulink.data.DataSourceWorkspace object dsWks.

While executing a script on the data source workspace, MATLAB temporarily changes the current folder to the folder that contains the script.

Write a short script that sets some variables in a data source workspace.

% myscript.m
x = 10;
p = p+1;

Before running the script, check the current value of variable p in the data source workspace object sourceWorkspace.

getVariable(sourceWorkspace,'p')

Also check the value of variable x.

getVariable(sourceWorkspace,'x')

Error: undefined variable 'x'

The output shows that x is not yet defined in the workspace.

Now run the script myscript.m and check the values of p and x again.

run(sourceWorkspace,'myscript.m');
getVariables(sourceWorkspace,["p" "x"])

ans =

1x2 cell array

    {[3]}  {[10]}

Data source workspace, specified as a Simulink.data.DataSourceWorkspace object.

MATLAB script, specified as a character vector or string scalar. The script must be a .m or .mlx file on the MATLAB path.

Example: 'mfun.m'

Introduced in R2022b
