New Features
This section introduces the new features and enhancements added in the Real-Time Workshop Ada Coder 4.0 since the Real-Time Workshop Ada Coder 3.0.1 (Release 11.0).
| Note The Real-Time Workshop Ada Coder 4.0 requires the Real-Time Workshop. |
Data-Logging Format Support
The Real-Time Workshop Ada Coder (Ada95 targets) now supports all data-logging formats (matrix, structure, and structure /time).
See Data Logging in the Real-Time Workshop User's Guide for further information.
Ada83 Support
The Ada Coder now generates Ada83 code, in addition to Ada95 code.
The Ada83 code does not support data logging, but is suitable for generating embedded code for use with legacy Ada83 compilers.
The Ada83 target is available from the System Target File Browser by selecting the system target file rt_ada83.tlc (Ada83 Target for GNAT). The accompanying template makefile gnat83.tmf uses the -gnat83 switch in the GNAT Ada95 compiler.
See Supported Targets in the Real-Time Workshop User's Guide for further information.
S-Function Support
Simulink now supports noninlined Ada S-functions. For Real-Time Workshop code generation purposes, you can create a wrapper S-function that calls an Ada S-function.
Block Comment Generation
The new Insert block descriptions in code option lets you insert text from the Description field of blocks in your model as comments in generated code. When this option is selected, comments are inserted into the code generated for any blocks that have text in their Description fields. See Generating Block Comments in the Real-Time Workshop User's Guide for further information.
