Hi guys, I need to create structures inside the base workspace from inside one of my functions and populate them with values, the problem is I don't explicitly know the names of the structures. Why? My model uses from workspace blocks, 2D arrays need structure form, as per Mathworks documentation. See below.
%some function
function [SimulationData,Error,Warnings] = ExtractTestCaseData(TestCaseFile,TestCase,OutputType)
.
.
[NumericData,TextData,RawData] = xlsread(TestCaseFile,TestCase);
.
.
%logic to create and populate simulationData structure with data from excel file
.
.
if regularVector
assignin('base',SimulationData.Input(InputIndex).Name,SimulationData.Input(InputIndex).Values(1,:)); %no problem
elseif 2DArray
%now what? I need in the base workspace
%var.time=[TimeValues]
%var.signals.values=[DataValues]
%var.signals.dimensions=[DimValues]
assignin('base',SimulationData.Input(InputIndex).Name,'1');%create signal name with random value, I don't know the value of Name, need to convert to structure form as in the comments
evalin('base','nameIDontKnow.time=SimulationData.Time;'); %two problems actually, referencing a name I don't know in base workspace and base workspace has no concept of what SimulatinData.Time is, and so on if you catch my drift.
.
.
end
Does anyone have an idea of how to make this work??
Thanks
Dan
