how to return a value after a pushbutton is pressed to main function

Vihang Patil — Thu, 03 Jan 2008 11:17:38 -0500

Hello
I am trying to send a value to the main function after I
press a pushbutton, but I am unable to do so
for example;

Create a small gui with 2 radiobuttons having tag viz,
radiobutton1 and radiobutton2 and a pushbutton with tag
pushbutton1

Now, after I press pushbutton1 I should be able to pass
some values corresponding to the radiobbutton which
is "On" to the main function. How do I do that. I am using
GUIDE for doing this and I am not able to understand,
whether I should use varargout for this purpose and how
can I use it?

ex:
varargout = selection(varargin)

If I select radiobutton1 and press pushbutton1 then
varargout should have string value "Radiobutton1 selected"
and if radiobutton2 is selected then varargout should have
string value "Radiobutton2 is selected".

Please guide
Thanks
Vihang
