What are the Simulink Coder limitations?

I can't find any documentation on the limitations of Simulink Coder. For example, what blocks of what toolboxes are supported?

I can find this information for MATLAB Coder here: http://www.mathworks.com/help/coder/ug/functions-supported-for-code-generation--categorical-list.html

And similar information for HDL Coder here: http://www.mathworks.com/help/hdlcoder/ug/summary-of-block-implementations.html

But nothing on Simulink Coder. Can every Simulink block of every toolbox be translated to code?

I know that the "Block Data Type Support Table" has a column for "Code Generation Support" which indicates when there are exceptions for code-generation.

For base Simulink, this table can be viewed by executing the command:

>> showblockdatatypetable

• For Communications System Toolbox: showcommblockdatatypetable
• For DSP System Toolbox: showsignalblockdatatypetable
• For Computer Vision System Toolbox: showvipblockdatatypetable

I'm not sure if this information is documented for other libraries.

Thanks! A little searching around in MATLAB help files for "Block Data Type Support Table" lead me to a more comprehensive solution: From an open Simulink model go to Help > Block Support Table > All Tables
