Export BUSES objects to a .mat file programmatically

I have multiple bus object in my Matlab workspace and non-virtual buses in working in SImulink.

If I use the Bus Editor I am able to export all of the buses I have in the workspace into a .mat file.

Anyone knows the way of doing this programmatically?

Thanks in advance

Hi Juan,

You can export bus objects programmatically in MATLAB by using a script to save them into a '.mat' file. Here is a simple approach:

1. List all variables using the "who" function.
2. Identify bus objects with "isa(var, 'Simulink.Bus')".
3. Save the bus objects using the "save" function.

% List variables in the workspace
allVars = who;

% Var for storing Bus objects
busObjects = {};

% Identify bus objects
for i = 1:length(allVars)
    var = evalin('base', allVars{i});
    if isa(var, 'Simulink.Bus')
        busObjects{end+1} = allVars{i};
    end
end

% Save bus objects to a .mat file
if ~isempty(busObjects)
    save('bus_objects.mat', busObjects{:});
