MATLAB - Saving all base workspace variables into a mat file using uisave

Question

I am trying to allow the user of my software to save all the base workspace variables into a mat* file, however I'm not sure how to accomplish this using 'uisave'.

Is there a better way to do this than calling every single workspace variable manually using evalin('base', 'var') and creating a list of strings to input as an argument into uisave?

Answer 1

The function save will do it:

save('filename.mat')

You also may save one or several variables with the same function:

save('filename.mat', 'variable1', 'variable2')
