How to extract all variable names returned by Simulink.findVars?

I want to list all variables in my Simulink model, which I have collected via:
allVars = Simulink.findVars(bdroot)
It is easy to retrieve a single variable's name, for example:
allVars(2).Name
But listing them using allVars.Name puts many spaces between each name, so it's hard to see them together. How do I display all the variable names without spaces using a 1-line command? Or do I have to loop through each? Does Simulink.WorkspaceVar correspond to a more familiar data type like a cell array?

This loop does what I want, but is there a 1-line version?
for iName = 1:length(allVars)
disp(allVars(iName).Name)
end

Do you mean you have tried:
disp(char(allVars(:).Name));
That would pad each name with spaces due to conversion to a char matrix.
If you want a one-liner, you can do a poor-man's loop:
cellfun(@disp, cellstr(char(allVars(:).Name)));
Or indeed:
arrayfun(@(n) disp(allVars(n).Name), 1:length(allVars));
But I don't really see either of these as an advantage in terms of clarity. The benefit is you can wrap it into a lambda function when you want to do it often:
dispvars = @(v) cellfun(@disp, cellstr(char(v(:).Name)));
dispvars(allVars);

Oh, I never realised this, but it seems the usage of (:) indexing in this case is redundant. You can just use "allVars.Name".

Thanks, Geoff. This worked perfectly:
disp(char(allVars.Name))
It was also useful to learn about cellfun, arrayfun, and anonymous functions from your other solutions. I don't use these, but now I will.
Just wondering: Does Simulink.WorkspaceVar correspond to a more familiar Matlab item, like a cell array? If so, I would be able to make better use of it.

Sorry, I can't answer that question - I don't have simulink! =) But if you want to know what it is, do this: class(Simulink.WorkspaceVar)
Glad the first thing worked for you. I thought you wanted them displayed without the trailing spaces, hence the trickier options that do the same thing as your loop example.
