change, chg

Generate implicit event when data changes value in Stateflow chart

Syntax

change(data_name)

chg(data_name)

Description

change(data_name) generates an implicit local event when the chart sets the value of the variable data_name. If more than one data object has the same name, use dot notation to specify the name of the data object. For more information, see Identify Data by Using Dot Notation.

chg(data_name) is an alternative way to execute change(data_name).

Examples
