Pass string values from textbox to code

I have three files in Matlab:

  1. mygui.fig
  2. mygui.m
  3. mycode.m

As the titles suggest, the first two deal with the simple user interface and the last is where my processing takes place.

I have created mygui.fig using GUIDE and it looks like this:

enter image description here

When I hit run, I want the two parameters from the interface to be transferred to mycode.m.

I currently have this code in mygui.m which captures the data from the textboxes:

function btnRun_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
     strPathTrain = get(handles.txtPathTrain,'String');
     strPathTest = get(handles.txtPathTest,'String');

mycode.m looks like this:

Trainset = 'C:\Users\blah1';   
Testset  = 'C:\Users\blah2';
...

How can I call and transfer these values to mycode.m?

You can transfer data among them using handles, try it this way.

For example, in the form code:

handles.k.tr = get(handles.txtTr,'String');
handles.k.te = get(handles.txtTe,'String');
guidata( hObject, handles );
somefunction( handles.k );

The function:

function [ output_args ] = somefunction( k )
     fprintf('tain=%s', k.tr);
     output_args = 0;
end

You can create a global structure to store all user inputs in mygui.m and use that in other functions. Alternatively, you can also write the value to a file inside the function and read process the file elsewhere.
