Open GPU Coder app

Syntax

gpucoder

gpucoder projectname

gpucoder -open projectname

gpucoder -new projectname

gpucoder -ecoder false -new projectname

gpucoder -build projectname

gpucoder -tocode projectname -script scriptname

gpucoder -tocode projectname

gpucoder -toconfig projectname

cfg = gpucoder("-toconfig",projectname)

gpucoder -typeEditor

Description

gpucoder opens the GPU Coder™ app. To create a project, in the Create GPU Coder Project dialog box, enter a name for the project and select a file location. To open an existing project, click Open and select the project file.

If you have the Embedded Coder^® product, the app enables Embedded Coder features when it creates a project. To disable Embedded Coder features, in the project build settings, under Advanced, set Use Embedded Coder features to No.

gpucoder projectname or gpucoder -open projectname opens the existing project named projectname.coderprj by using the GPU Coder app.

gpucoder -new projectname creates a GPU Coder project named projectname.coderprj and opens the GPU Coder app. If the Embedded Coder product is installed, the app enables Embedded Coder features when it creates a project.

gpucoder -ecoder false -new projectname opens the GPU Coder app creating a project named projectname.coderprj. The app creates a project with the Embedded Coder features disabled, even if the Embedded Coder product is installed.

gpucoder -build projectname builds the existing project named projectname.coderprj.

gpucoder -tocode projectname -script scriptname creates a script named scriptname.m containing the equivalent MATLAB^® commands for the project settings in projectname.coderprj.

If scriptname.m exists, gpucoder overwrites it. The script:

• Creates a configuration object named cfg that contains project build configuration.

• Defines the variable inputTypes for the function input types.

• Defines the variable globalVariables for global data initial values.

• Runs the codegen command. When you run the script, the entry-point functions that are arguments to codegen must be on the search path.

cfg, inputTypes, and globalVariables appear in the base workspace only after you run the script.

gpucoder -tocode projectname converts the existing project named projectname.prj to the equivalent list of MATLAB commands and writes them to the Command Window.

gpucoder -toconfig projectname exports the code configuration settings stored in a GPU Coder project file to a code configuration object. Executing this command returns a code configuration object corresponding to projectname. For more information on which code configuration object is returned for different project file settings, see Share Build Configuration Settings.

cfg = gpucoder("-toconfig",projectname) returns the code configuration settings stored in a GPU Coder project file to a code configuration object. Executing this command returns a code configuration object corresponding to projectname. For more information on which code configuration object is returned for different project file settings, see Share Build Configuration Settings.

gpucoder -typeEditor opens an empty Coder Type Editor dialog. If a dialog is already open, this command brings it to the front of the screen.

See Create and Edit Input Types by Using the Coder Type Editor.

Examples

Convert a GPU Coder Project to a MATLAB Script

Convert the GPU Coder project named myGPU_project.coderprj to the MATLAB script named myGPU_script.m.

gpucoder -tocode myGPU_project -script myGPU_script.m

Input Arguments

projectname — Name of the GPU Coder project

character vector

Name of GPU Coder project that you want to create, open, or build. The project name must not contain spaces.

scriptname — Name of script file

character vector

Name of script that you want to create when using the -tocode option with the -script option. The script name must not contain spaces.

Output Arguments

cfg — Code configuration object

coder.MexCodeConfig | coder.CodeConfig | coder.EmbeddedCodeConfig

Code configuration object that stores the configurations in a GPU Coder project file.

Version History

Introduced in R2017b

R2025a: GPU Coder app saves projects with the .coderprj extension by default

The gpucoder function saves projects with the .coderprj extension instead of a .prj extension. If you open a GPU Coder project created in previous releases using gpucoder, the function saves a copy of the PRJ file as a CODERPRJ file. The GPU Coder app saves changes you make to the CODERPRJ file.

When opening a code generation project from a prior release, the app does not copy parameters specific to NVIDIA^® Jetson™ or NVIDIA DRIVE^® platforms from the PRJ file to the CODERPRJ file. If you open a project from a prior release that uses NVIDIA Jetson or NVIDIA DRIVE, verify the hardware settings before generating code.
