compare_model (Simulink Reference)

Compare two models.

Syntax

compare_model('model1', 'model2', 0)
compare_model('model1', 'model2', 1)

Description

compare_model('model1', 'model2', 0) compares model1 and model2 and returns a cell array that details the differences between the two models. compare_model('model1', 'model2', 1) returns only the nongraphical differences between the models.

The cell array returned by this function contains a cell array for each item compared between the two models. Each item cell array contains the following cells:

Cell
Contents

1
Name of compared item in first model

2
Name of compared item in second model

3
Type of the compared item (e.g., block, subsystem, state, etc.)

4
Comparison result: d if the two items differ, s if they're the same, u if the item is unique

5
Handle of the parent of the first item

6
Handle of the first item

7
Handle of the parent of the second item

8
Handle of the second item

Cell	Contents
1	Name of compared item in first model
