C++ matlab engine c++ callback function

Question

I'm writing an application which need to have some things done by the matlab engine. However, inside the matlab scripts I need some callback functions. Is it possible to create a callback function in a matlab script back to a c++ function?

Answer 1

Disclaimer : I never tested this approach by myself
You can do it by compiling your Matlab code as COM component using Matlab builder NE.
This component will be sending COM events, and your application will subscribe to them.
See the "Adding Events to COM Objects" section in Matlab Builder NE documentation.

You can read about COM here:
