using load in nested fuctions error
bart Zaalberg
im quite new to matlab but trying to make a little game in matlab. when i started i used a new m file every time i made a new part. now i'm trying to put them all in 1 m-file using nested functions. the probleme is that i used load/save to store my information so you could continue an other time, but now it gives the next error(when combined in 1 m-file:
??? Error using ==> load
Attempt to add "keuzem" to a static workspace.
See MATLAB Programming, Restrictions on Assigning to Variables for
details.
Error in ==> RPGfinal at 7
load('BartRPG.mat')
i know i get a error because its i a static workspace but isn't there any way i can save my varaibles and load then an other time. predesignating then before loading also doesn't work.
i will post the m-file if its nessesary,
hope someone can help me.
bart,
Student

i can load the .mat file in my main function but not in the nested, so question is; is there a way to load a .mat file in a nested fuction?
sorry for the extra post

That is correct. You can't "poof" variables into the workspace of a nested
function like this.

Specify an output argument for LOAD.
mydata = load('BartRPG.mat');
Then you're not attempting to add variables to the workspace, you're simply
adding fields to a variable that already exists. Since the error message
indicates that one of the variables in that MAT-file is named keuzem, with
this approach you'd need to refer to it as mydata.keuzem -- or if you wanted
to change the rest of your code as little as possible, put this line
immediately after your LOAD call:
keuzem = mydata.keuzem;

Your English was fine. Just one suggestion, though -- "i" is sqrt(-1). "I"
is the person who's speaking :)

Hi,
I know, your problem is solved but for everybody, who has the same issue:
This error only occurs in nested functions. A classic case is the callback function of a button.
You can simply create a new function where you load the workspace normal. This is espacially useful if you have workspaces with a lot of variables.
An example:
function [obj] = myFrame()
.
.
.
myButton = uicontrol('Style','pushbutton',...
'String','push me','Position',[350,5,100,24],...
'Callback',{@callback_myButton});
.
.
.
function callback_myButton(source, eventdata)
myVar = loadMyWorkspace(); % this is a nested function
end
end
And the new function:
function [myVar] = loadMyWorkspace()
load('myWorkspace.mat'); % this is not.
end
