Retrieve Source Library Info.

Is there any to retrieve the 'source library info' of any simulink block inside an already existing simulink model?

This will be useful for validating whether the simulink block belongs to particular Simulink library or not.

Hi jishnusekhar,

You can check the Source Library information of a Simulink block within a Simulink Model by right-clicking on the block and selecting "Help." This action will redirect you to the block's documentation page, where the Source Library information is displayed at the top.

Thank you.

I don't want to check the help, I want to know the block's source library path within an exisiting model. From which library path the particular block has been pulled from.

Hi @jishnusekhar,

If you are looking for the exact block's source path then you youuse the property of "get_params" for "blocks", I have found one as 'ReferenceBlock', which returns the name of the library block to which this block links.

Here is the code I have followed which you can convert into a matlab script to be an autonomous process-

>> blocks = find_system('untitled1', 'Type', 'Block');
>> block = blocks{1};
>> sourceLibrary = get_param(block, 'ReferenceBlock');
>> sourceLibrary

sourceLibrary =

    'hdlsllib/HDL RAMs/HDL FIFO'
