Stateflow

MATLAB Functions and Data

You can call MATLAB functions and access MATLAB workspace variables in action language, using the ml namespace operator or the ml function. See the following sections:

• ml Namespace Operator -- Shows you how to use MATLAB workspace variables or call MATLAB functions through the ml namespace operator.
• ml Function -- Shows you how to use MATLAB functions through the ml function.
• ml Expressions -- Shows you how to mix ml namespace operator and ml function expressions along with Stateflow data in larger expressions.
• ml Data Type -- Shows you how to use the MATLAB data type to keep MATLAB data in Stateflow instead of in the MATLAB workspace.
• Inferring Return Size for ml Expressions -- Gives you the rules for providing enough information to infer the size of the values returned from the ml namespace operator and the ml function in larger action language expressions.

Caution    Because MATLAB functions are not available in a target environment, do not use the ml namespace operator and the ml function if you plan to build an RTW target that includes code from Stateflow Coder.
