Pass output arguments obtained through GUI to calling script

Hello,

It's an eternally returning question, but I can't figure it out based on the available articles/Q&A's. The GUI is set up with GUIDE.

The scenario is as follows. A GUI window appears and the user enters some input. If the user cancels or closes this window, I want a boolean back (used for not to execute the remainder of the calling script). If the user clicks the OK button, I want a variable returned.

For example: I don't understand how to pass the variable (declared in OK_button_Callback), given the fact that on that click event the GUI window closes (by deleting its handles).

Someone that can help me? Thanks in advance!

I eventually made it. It's crucial to understand uiwait() and uiresume() and not deleting handles so that the program doesn't get the chance to produce some output :-)
