Replacement Name: single

Name for single data type in generated code

Model Configuration Pane: Code Generation / Data Type Replacement

Description

The Replacement Name: single parameter specifies the name to use for the built-in data type single in the generated code.

Dependencies

To enable this parameter, select the Specify custom data type names parameter.

Settings

no default

If a value is not specified, the code generator uses the Code Generation Name:

real32_T if Data type replacement is Use coder typedefs.
float if Data type replacement is Use C data types with fixed-width integers.

You can specify a replacement name by using one of the following:

A Simulink.AliasType object.
A Simulink.NumericType object.
The Simulink Name built-in data type name.

To use a Simulink.AliasType object:

Set the BaseType object property to single.
Set the HeaderFile object property to the name of the header file that provides the type definition.
In the Replacement Name column, specify the object name.

To use a Simulink.NumericType object:

Set the DataTypeMode object property to Single.
Set the HeaderFile object property to the name of the header file that provides the type definition.
In the Replacement Name column, specify the object name.

To use the Simulink Name, in the Replacement Name column, specify single.

An error occurs, if:

A replacement data type specification is inconsistent with the Simulink Name data type.
The Simulink.AliasType object has the Data scope parameter set to Exported.
