Terminate Code Generation Process

I am using the ert_make_rtw_hook.m (before tlc stage) file to run several scripts during the code generation process. These scripts are used to validate some custom (masked) blocks that I have created. I'm wondering if there is a way to terminate the build process if I detect an error with a setting in one of these custom blocks.

You could just error() in the hook .m file. That would stop the process. Not most graceful but no harm done.

Hi David,

You could encapsulate your scripts in try-catch blocks. Threfore, if the script errors out, you can debug it easily by throwing a meaningful error. You could also use error() as suggessted by Fangjun.

Please refer the following documentation for more information on try-catch block: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/try.html
