Giving tips to help M2SCI...
Syntax
%m2scideclare variable_name|sizes|data_type|property
Arguments
- variable_name
Name of the declared variable. It can be a Struct field (e.g.
x(1,2).name
) or describe the contents of a Cell using syntaxx(1,2).entries
.NOTE that for Cells and Structs,*
can be used as an index (see examples below).- sizes
Sizes of the variable declared, separated by blanks. Any unknown size can be specified with
?
.NOTE that a Matlab character string as defined between single quotes is considered as a vector of characters. Therefore, for instance the size of 'string' is|1 6|
.- data_type & property
data type and property (sub-type) of the variable. Possible values are documented in the Type page.
Property values that are not defined as a constant in m2ci -- like 'int8' or 'Axes' -- must be specified without quotes in the m2scideclare statement.
Description
The main difficulty for M2SCI (mfile2sci
) is to find what variables
are: dimensions, type...
To help this tool, just add comments beginning with %m2scideclare
in
the M-file to convert, (%m2sciassume
was used in previous Scilab
versions and is now obsolete).
All data given by m2scideclare
are compared with infered data.
In case of conflict, inferred data are kept and a warning message is displayed.
If you are sure about your data, report a bug.
Examples
%m2scideclare var1|2 3|Double|Real
var1 is declared as a 2x3 Double matrix containing real data.
%m2scideclare var2|2 3 10|Double|Complex
var2 is declared as a 2x3x10 Double hypermatrix containing complex data
%m2scideclare var3(1,2).name|1 10|String|?
var3 is declared as a Struct array containing a 1x10 character string in field 'name' of struct at index (1,2)
%m2scideclare var4(1,5).entries|1 ?|Boolean|?
var4 is declared as a Cell containing a row boolean vector at index (1,5)
%m2scideclare var4(1,6).entries|? ?|Int|?
var4 is declared as a Cell containing a row boolean vector at index (1,5) and integer data at index (1,6)
%m2scideclare var5(*,*).name|1 ?|String|?
var5 is declared as a Struct array containing a 1xn character string in all fields 'name'
%m2scideclare var6(2,*).entries|1 3|Double|Real
var6 is declared as a Cell array containing a 1x3 double vector in each element of its second row
