Simulink.VariantManager class

Package: Simulink

Access Variant Manager functionality programmatically

Description

The variant manager class provides a set of methods to access Variant Manager functionality from the MATLAB command-line. Use an instance of Simulink.VariantManager class to:

• Convert the Subsystems or Model block to a Variant Subsystem.

• Find variant control variables used in variant control expressions.

• Generate a reduced model for specified variant configurations.

• Display or control behavior of variant condition legend.

Creation

variantmanager = Simulink.VariantManager creates a variant manager object.

Methods

Public Methods

findVariantControlVars	Find variables used in variant control expressions
reduceModel	Generate reduced model for specified variant configurations
convertToVariant	Convert Subsystem, or Model block, or Variant Model block to a Variant Subsystem block
variantLegend	Display or control behavior of variant condition legend

Examples

Find Variant Control Variables for a Model

Open the model slexVariantManagement.

cd(fullfile(matlabroot,'examples','simulink_variants','main'));
model = 'slexVariantManagement';
open_system(model); 

Create an object of the Simulink.VariantManager class.

varmngr=Simulink.VariantManager;

Find the variant control variables.

vars = varmngr.findVariantControlVars(model)

vars=6×1 struct array with fields:
    Name
    Value
    Exists
