MATLAB: How to access cell array of the base workspace variables from inside a GUI function

Question

I need to access the cell array of all the variables in the base workspace from inside a GUI function and I can not use the "who" command because it returns the variables defined inside the GUI function not the main workspace. And is there any for using "isempty" function for the main workspace from inside a GUI function? I mean I want it to return 1 if the base workspace is cleared.

can anyone help me? thanks in advance

You should not have to do this. I never do. Never have I needed to do that, not over years and years of MATLAB programming. However, if you think you do, then take a look at the assignin() and evalin() functions.
