REACTIS BETA SUPPORTS FIXED-POINT DATA TYPES IN SIMULINK

We are pleased to announce the availability of Reactis V2004.3.1, a beta release that includes support for fixed-point data types in Simulink. We urge customers with fixed-point models to try the new version and report back any problems. Beta support for fixed-point data types in Stateflow is due out in a few weeks. The V2005 release is scheduled for May and will include support for fixed-point data types in both the Simulink and Stateflow portions of models.

This release also includes a number of other new features and enhancements implemented since the previous major release in December of 2004. Some highlights are below.

  • Support for Simulink version 6.2 (MathWorks R14.2)
  • Support for Simulink duplicate inports (also known as Shadow Inport blocks).
  • Support for UnaryMinus, SignalConversion, Bus Assignment, Bias blocks.
  • New controls in the Reactis Settings Dialog:
    • to specify the version of Matlab Reactis should use.
    • to specify whether integer overflows should produce an error or wrap around.
  • Limited support for 'set_param' in Mask Initialization functions.
  • The escape key now removes print region.
  • In the type editor dialog, the tab key now causes scrolling through the controls of the dialog.
  • In user-input mode of Simulator, double clicking on a top-level input port now opens a panel to enter values for that port.
  • Memory tuning for Update Outputs function in Simulator.
  • Report an error and terminate gracefully if a S-Function crashes.
Owners of active licenses may upgrade to V2004.3.1 by downloading the installer from the Reactis User Pages:
