The vmcExport function provides a
programmatic way to invoke the Vitis Model
Composer code generator.
Syntax
status = vmcExport('modelName')
status = vmcExport('MyModel', 'MyModel_hubInfo.json')
status = vmcExport('MyModel', 'closeProgressWindow', 1)
[status, designInfo] = vmcExport('MyModel', ...)
Description
vmcExport invokes the Vitis Model Composer code generator and returns a
status code.
It is functionally equivalent to opening the Model Composer Hub block and clicking the Validate button.
vmcExport is a blocking function that returns
0 when code generation completes successfully.
A non-zero return code indicates an error during code generation.
Example
To programmatically select the subsystem on which to operate, you can
use the vmchub_set_param function to set the
SelectSubsystem property. For example:
vmchub_set_param('modelName/Vitis Model Composer Hub', 'modelName/DUT_ss', 'SelectSubsystem', 1);Then call vmcExport.:
vmcExport('MyModel') uses the
settings of the Model Composer Hub block present in 'MyModel'.
[status, designInfo] = vmcExport('MyModel')
also gives an information struct for HDL designs. In the case of AIE and HLS this
struct is empty.
status = vmcExport('MyModel',
hubParams='MyModel_hubInfo.json') uses the settings from the JSON file
to export.
status = vmcExport('MyModel',
hubParams='MyModel_hubInfo.json',
targetSubsystem='MyModel/MySubsystem') selects the subsystem to
export.
status = vmcExport('MyModel',
closeProgressWindow=1) closes the progress window after the code
generation is done.
