Error importing ARXML (TYPE_REFERENCE)

I'm trying to import an AUTOSAR ARXML to MATLAB but the following error appears:

Error using arxml.importer/createComponentAsModel (line 120)

The arxml import failed because of the following errors:

Error in AVPIM_AUTOSAR (line 266)

SWC_sys_handler = createComponentAsModel(ar,swc_import_pkg_path,...

Caused by:

Reference to implementation data type is missing from implementation data type element 'loc' of category TYPE_REFERENCE in file

C:/Inputs/Arxml/DataTypes.arxml:38487.

Hi @Diana Torres

I have also encountered a similar issue. The problem was with the parser's ability to handle certain nested structures in ARXML files. Specifically, the nesting of elements within types, such as arrays and structures, led to confusion during the import process.

A possible workaround is to adjust the ARXML export configuration to use type references instead of nesting definitions. This approach helps align the structure with the parser's expectations.

However, I checked nesting structures are supported from R2020a release onwards.
