What's the difference between using the MATLAB engine and MEX Functions in order to link MATLAB and C++?

Thanks!

They work in different directions:

MEX is to call C++ code from the MATLAB environment.

MATLAB Engine is to call MATLAB functionality from the C++ code using the engine API.

Is there an advantage to using one versus the other, or does it depend on the application?
