The StructureLib toolbox from Podium Technology extends the capabilities of MATLAB^®/Simulink^® by adding the ability to handle multi-data typed structures and bitwords that can be nested to any depth.

Principle uses for this are to integrate models with existing functionality or simplify the path between user S-Functions.

The user is able to define the structures; each member can be any standard Simulink data type or could reference another structure definition to give a multi-leveled structure.  Each member can be also be given dimensions to make it into a vector or matrix.  StructureLib also supports bitword structures where bits or collections of bits can be collated into an integer.

The following blocks are supplied:

·        StructMux: Creates a structure type from its primitive elements - e.g. to feed a user S-Function.

·        StructDemux: Breaks out a structure into its primitive parts - e.g. to decode the output from S-Functions.

·        StructPicker: Pick out individual members, used instead of StructDemux when only one member is required.

·        StructPoker: Inserts individual members into a structure.

·        Struct Store Memory: Defines memory storage for saving structures to.

·        Struct Store Read: Reads the whole structure, sub structures or structure elements from the structure store.

·        Struct Store Write: Writes the whole structure, sub structures or structure elements to the structure store.

·        Bitword DTC: Writes the whole structure, sub structures or structure elements to the structure store.

Structure definitions are driven from a single source, either m-scripts where the ‘C’ header file is generated for creating S-Functions, alternatively, descriptions for Simulink can be driven from ‘C’ header files using the parser provided.
