How to build a simulink model in order to prevent Embedded Coder generating repeat identical functions.

Within my Simulink Model there are multiple repeated MATLAB function blocks, with their only difference being their block identifiers. I have set the paramaters of these blocks to be atomic and a reusable function within the code generation tab in the hopes of the generated code sharing one function file for all instances.

However when i generate my code using Embedded Coder i'm met with repeated function files for every instance of each MATLAB function block, with these files containg identical code. How would i go about ensuring any identical function blocks all generate into one model wide function?

Hi,

• have you specified the "Function name" and "File name" in Block Parameters / Code Generation ?
• have you created a subsystem mask ?

A simple example would be:

The Code Generation Settings are:

The generated code looks like this:

("Slec_reusable_Sub" is the top model name, the MATLAB Function is default)

Best regards
