Hi Vivin,
I understand that you want to convert .slx to .dll in MATLAB. Converting a Simulink model (.slx file) to a dynamically linked library (.dll file) is typically done through the code generation process. MATLAB and Simulink provide a tool called Simulink Coder that allows to generate C and C++ code from Simulink models, which can then be compiled into a DLL. Following are the steps one can follow:
1.Prepare Simulink Model:
- Open Simulink model and make sure it is ready for code generation. This means it should be free of errors and set up with the correct parameters and solver settings.
2. Install Required Tools:
- Ensure having MATLAB, Simulink, and Simulink Coder installed. One also needs a supported C/C++ compiler installed on the system. MATLAB supports various compilers, and one can check the supported compilers for specific MATLAB version using the “mex -setup” command in MATLAB.
3. Configure Model for Code Generation:
- Go to the Simulink model's Configuration Parameters dialog box. Open this by clicking on "Model Settings" in the Modelling tab or by pressing “Ctrl+E”.
- Under the Code Generation section, set the System target file to a target that supports DLL generation, like “grt.tlc” for generic real-time target.
- Set other code generation options as needed for application.
4. Generate the Code:
- From the Simulink model, select "C/C++ Code" > "Build Model" from the Simulation menu or click the "Build" button in the toolbar.
- Simulink Coder will generate C/C++ source code and a project or makefile for compiling the code.
5. Compile the Generated Code into a DLL:
- Use the generated makefile or project file to compile the code into a DLL. This can usually be done from within MATLAB or by using an external IDE or command-line compiler.
- The specific steps will depend on the compiler in use, but one needs to specify that they want to create a DLL and provide the appropriate flags and options.
