use the Project Settings dialog to define USER_DEFINED_ISIM_MAIN preprocessor option for compiler as shown in Figure 2.22.

Figure 2.22. Specifying user-defined main() option

supply a C++ file or a library with user-defined main() function. A fragment of the standard IsimMan.cpp file is shown in Example 2.1for comparison:

#ifdef USER_DEFINED_ISIM_MAIN
// function that preforms command line parsing, 
// CADI system initialization and run model
extern int LoadInitAndRunCADIModel(int argc, char *argv[]);

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	return LoadInitAndRunCADIModel(argc, argv);
}

#endif // #ifndef  USER_DEFINED_ISIM_MAIN

The user-defined main() can implement processing of own command line options but must, after filtering out all user-defined switches, pass the remaining options to the Model Shell entry function LoadInitAndRunCADIModel().

Add the new source file containing the custom main() to the project. See Add Existing Files and Add New File dialogs (Component window).
