Is there any good video and documentation to convert from Simulink to C and C++ code

Hello,

Could you please let me know if there any good video and documentation to convert from Simulink to C and C++?

I have a simulink model but it does not convert successfully to C and to C++ with many issues sso what is the best way to learn and troubleshoot the issues?'

Thanks,

Charles

Hello,

I also found out 2 more options from Simulink

you can right click on the "subystem" that you want to generate c or c++ i.e. with 2 options listed below

Option 1:

"c/c++" --> "embedded code quick start" and generate the models by answer a few question. However, it gave difffererent errors compared to the link you sent where you have to go the "Simulation" " --->"Mode' Configuration Parameters"

Option 2:

"c/c++" --> "build this subsystems". I am able to get the C code generation with out errors. (Only C code generated) (I noted that there are NOT a lot of questions asked.

My questions are:

1. Why Options 2 only generate C code only? How can I use Option 2 to generate C++ code?
2. Should I trust the C code generation from this Option 2?
3. Option 1 give errors for C or C++ vs. Option 2 give me no errors for code C generation
4. Your suggestion from the link you sent i.e. from going to the "Simulation" " --->"Mode' Configuration Parameters" and select the require options for either C or C++. These provide different issues/errors compared to Option 1.
5. Why are there 3 different options for code generation and each option has different issues with no outputs provided except where Option 2 works (C code only).
6. So what option should we be choosing i.e. Your provided link Option, or Option 1, or Option 2? (Note Option 2 only works with C code only and why we cannot select C++ from this Option 2.

Thank you,

Charles
