A trick is to convert any OOP class object to a regular structure in the MATLAB side:
ME = MException('a:b','err');
s = struct(ME);
Note that a warning is issued that any private, protected, or hidden properties of the object will become public fields in the new structure:
>> s
s =
type: {[0] ''}
hasBeenCaught: 0
identifier: 'a:b'
message: 'err'
cause: {}
stack: [0x1 struct]
defaultstack: [0x1 struct]
arguments: {}
Now you can retrieve the new variable using the Engine API, and handle it as a regular structure:
mxArray *s = engGetVariable(ep, "s");
mxArray *identifier = mxGetField(s, 0, "identifier");
mxArray *message = mxGetField(s, 0, "message");
