Real-Time Workshop User's Guide

Directories Used in the Build Process

The Real-Time Workshop creates output files in two directories during the build process:

• The working directory

If an executable is created, it is written to your working directory. The executable is named model.exe (on PC) or model (on UNIX).

• The build directory

The build process creates a subdirectory, called the build directory, within your working directory. The build directory name is model_target_rtw, where model is the name of the source model and target is the name of the chosen target. The build directory stores generated source code and all other files created during the build process (except the executable).

The build directory always contains the generated code modules model.c, model.h, and model_export.h, and the generated makefile model.mk.

Depending upon the target and code generation and build options selected, additional files in the build directory may include:

• model.rtw
• Object (.obj) files
• Code modules generated from subsystems
• TLC profiler report files
• Block I/O (model_bio.c) and parameter tuning (model_pt.c) information files
• Real-Time Workshop project (model.tmw) files
