Syntax
allPref = swpref.getpref
selPref = swpref.getpref(name)
val = swpref.getpref(name,[])
Description
allPref = swpref.getpref returns all preference in a struct where each
field-value pair corresponds to a prefernce name-value pair.
selPref = swpref.getpref(name) returns a struct that contains the
value, name and label of the selected preference.
val = swpref.getpref(name,[]) just returns the stored value
corresponding to name preference.
Note: The preferences are reset after every restart of Matlab, unlike the
Matlab built-in preferences that are persistent between Matlab sessions.
If you want certain preferences to keep after closing matlab, define them
in the
startup.m file.
Warning:
This is a legacy function. It is better to use
pref = swpref and then
use regular pref.name = value or set(pref, name, value) syntax.
