A system and method automatically generates graphical model from an object-oriented, textual program, and verifies the performance of the graphical model to the textual program. The textual program may include a plurality of system objects having properties. The objects may be mapped to graphical model blocks that have parameters. The properties of the system objects may be mapped to the parameters of the graphical model blocks.

System and method for automatically generating a graphical model from a text-based program

A system and method automatically generates an object-oriented, textual program from a graphical model, and verifies the performance of the textual program as compared to the graphical model. The graphical model may have a plurality of interconnected blocks, and each block may have a plurality of parameters. One or more of the blocks are mapped to a system object, and the block's parameters are mapped to properties of the system object. An object-oriented, executable textual string is generated automatically for the block. The generated string includes at least one command to: instantiate a system object having functionality that matches the block; set one or more properties of the system object based on the block's parameters; and run the instantiated object.
