ssGetBusElementOffset

Get the offset from the start of the bus data type to a bus element

Syntax

int_T ssGetBusElementOffset(SimStruct* S, int_T busTypeID, int_T elemIdx)

Arguments

S

SimStruct that represents an S-Function block

busTypeID

The bus data type identifier that represents the bus signal

elemIdx

The zero-based bus element index

Returns

int_T

Description

Use to get the offset, in bytes, from the start of the bus data type to the bus element that you specify and to obtain a pointer to the memory location of the bus element. The ssGetBusElementOffset S-function accounts for the data type, complexity, dimensions, and any padding between the start of the bus signal and the bus element that you specify.

Languages

C, C++

Examples

static void mdlOutputs(SimStruct *S, int_T tid)
 {
    DTypeId    dType    = ssGetOutputPortDataType(S, 0);
    const void *u       = ssGetInputPortSignal(S, 0);
    int        numElems = ssGetNumBusElements(S, dType);
    int        i;
    
    for(i=0; i<numElems; i++) {
        int_T offset = ssGetBusElementOffset(S, dType, i);
 
        /* Assume that the bus element is of type double */
        const double *in = (const double*) ((const char*)u + offset);
     }
  }
