I would like to be able to programmatically query the session history in MATLAB (equivalent to what can be seen in the Command History). As there is no documented way to do this, I use the undocumented feature:
>> com.mathworks.mlservices.MLCommandHistoryServices.getSessionHistory
Unfortunately, in headless environment (no graphics), such as an SSH connection, this command throws:
Java exception occurred:
java.awt.HeadlessException
