Can I use matlab callback function in c++ engine API?

For example I make a c++ application using c++ engine API to draw some figures.

I need to get the mouse position [ x y ] in my c++ application when the user clicks on the figure, or implement some graph interaction by callback function. Can I do these job with c++ engine API?

Thanks!

Hi Su,

You can call MATLAB functions from a C++ application using the MATLAB Engine API for C++. This API facilitates communication between C++ and MATLAB, allowing you to launch MATLAB, evaluate MATLAB functions with specific arguments, and exchange data between the two environments.

For more information on how to call MATLAB functions from C++, you can refer to the following documentation:
