Hi Steve
Are you preloading the libraries?
The missing XPS block error might be because your libraries did not
load. Newwer simulink versions seem to only load libraries as they are
required. Unless the library is loaded (eg, by "expanding" it in the
Simulink library browser) before trying to open your model and run the
scripts, the links might be broken.
You can automate this process (to happen on Matlab startup) by adding
the following commands into your startup.m:
addpath([getenv('MLIB_ROOT'), '\xps_library']);
load_system([getenv('MLIB_ROOT'), '\xps_library\xps_library.mdl']);
addpath([getenv('MLIB_ROOT'), '\casper_library']);
load_system([getenv('MLIB_ROOT'), '\casper_library
\casper_library.mdl']);
addpath([getenv('MLIB_ROOT'), '\gavrt_library']);
load_system([getenv('MLIB_ROOT'), '\gavrt_library\gavrt_library.mdl'])

Hi,
I'm moving forward but have hit a snag.
To move forward I have done the following:
• Added new version to switch in bee_xps.m
• Moved all Casper libraries to path without spaces after getting
complaints
I have now loaded all the libraries (XSG, Casper) into simulink,
created the tutorial model in Simulink, started bee_xps, but I'm
getting errors when running the XSG generator ("Run XPS" in BEE XPS
1.1).
The problems are in gen_xps_files.m. I started working through them
but I'm wondering if there's something systemic, so I'm posting to
the group. NOTE: I'm including a graphic with most of the details
of my description - hopefully it goes through.
Strangely, the script doesn't recognize I'm on windows, even though
system('ver') returns "Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]". I
modified the code to force the windows assertion (system_os =
'windows';) after the OS detection code, but I still get the
following error around line 200:
set_param(sys,'SimulationCommand','update');
The error is
Failed to find 'XSG core config' in library 'xps_library' referenced
by 'testborph/XSG core config'.
The value of 'sys' is "testborph".
I'm including mlib_devel_10_1/
[casper_library,gavrt_library,xps_library, xps_lib] in my path.
Any tips?
Thank,
Steve

I haven't yet tried 11.5 myself (nor has anyone at CASPER Berkeley),
but 11.4 works so it should be compatible. Just add the 11.5.2275 case
to the switch statement in bee_xps.m and let us know how if you have
any further problems.
