Stateflow

Overview of the Stateflow API

The Stateflow API is a textual programming interface with the Stateflow diagram editor from the MATLAB Command Window. Before you get started with the Quick Start for the Stateflow API, read the topics in this section for an introduction to some new concepts that are part of the Stateflow API.

• What Is the Stateflow API? -- Defines and describes the nature of the Stateflow API.
• Stateflow API Object Hierarchy -- Introduces you to the hierarchy of objects in the Stateflow API, which mimics the hierarchy of objects in Stateflow.
• Getting a Handle on Stateflow API Objects -- Introduces you to the concept of a handle that is used to represent a Stateflow API object in MATLAB.
• Using API Object Properties and Methods -- Introduces you to the properties and methods of each API object. Properties and methods do the work of the API to create and change Stateflow diagrams.
• API References to Properties and Methods -- Introduces you to the extensive reference information available in this guide on each individual property and method.

Caution    You cannot undo any operation to the Stateflow diagram editor performed through the Stateflow API. If you do perform an editing operation through the API, the undo and redo buttons are disabled from undoing and redoing any prior operations.
