Coding philosophy : Is using Simulink observers blocks like using global variables?

Hi,

Must I considere that using observers blocks in a Simulink model is like using global variables in a code?

I dont' talk about the functionnal point of view, but about "coding philosophy".

In several companies I've worked for, I've come across coding rules that recommand to use global variables as less as possible, and more often totally avoid them...

In a code, global variables are shared between functions, while in Simulink, observers blocks allow to share variables between subsystems... But subsystems are not "functions"...

I am confused with your question, because the Observer blocks are related to facilitating a Simulink Test harness for testing models, they are not at all related to code generation. Simulink Test does not penetrate embedded generated code.
