clear

Remove specified variables from connected data source

Since R2024a

Syntax

clear(connectionObj,varNames)

Description

clear(connectionObj,varNames) removes the specified variables from the connected data source. The function does not return an error if the variable does not exist.

If the data connection can see multiple definitions of the same variable (for example, in a data dictionary and in a referenced dictionary), the function removes all definitions matching the specified variable names.

Examples

Remove Specified Variable From Data Dictionary

dd = Simulink.data.connect('myDictionary.sldd');
clear(dd, 'x');

Remove Specified Variables from Model Workspace

mw = Simulink.data.connect("myModel.slx");
clear(mw,["y" "z"]);

varNames — Variable names

string | character vector | array of strings | cell array of character vectors
