Simulink Signal Lines Distribution

Since R2022b

Metric ID

slcomp.SignalLinesDistribution

Description

Use this metric to determine the distribution of the number of signal lines in a unit or component.

The metric uses find_system to find the signal lines.

The metric includes:

• Simulink^® signal lines that the model uses

• Commented lines

• Each individual branch line

• Unterminated lines

Supported Artifacts

You can collect this metric for Units and Components. To control what the dashboard classifies as a unit or component, see Categorize Models in Hierarchy as Components or Units.

Collection

To collect data for this metric, use getMetrics with the metric identifier slcomp.SignalLinesDistribution.

Results

For this metric, instances of metric.Result return Value as a distribution structure that contains these fields:

• BinCounts — The number of artifacts in each bin, returned as a vector.

• BinEdges — Bin edges for the number of signal lines, returned as a vector. BinEdges(1) is the left edge of the first bin and BinEdges(end) is the right edge of the last bin. The length of BinEdges is one more than the length of BinCounts.

The bins in this metric result correspond to the bins in the Signal Lines row and Distribution column in the Simulink Architecture section.
