NumberOfOutputArguments - Number of arguments returned by task function

Description

When you create a task with the createTask function, you define how many output arguments are expected from the task function.

Characteristics

Usage	Task object
Read-only	While task is running or finished
Data type	Double

Values

A matrix is considered one argument.

Examples

Create a task and examine its NumberOfOutputArguments property.

jm = findResource('scheduler','type','jobmanager', ...
          'name','MyJobManager','LookupURL','JobMgrHost');
j = createJob(jm);
t = createTask(j, @rand, 1, {2, 4});
get(t,'NumberOfOutputArguments')
ans =
    1

This example returns a 2-by-4 matrix, which is a single argument. The NumberOfOutputArguments value is set by the createTask function, as the argument immediately after the task function definition; in this case, the 1 following the @rand argument.
