Description

Seems to be only an issue on windows.
Look at ZData: [1�0 double]
On linux this shows correctly 1×0

julia> using MATLAB
julia> x = linspace(0,1,10)
julia> eval_string("h=plot($x)")

h =

  Line with properties:

              Color: [0 0.4470 0.7410]
          LineStyle: '-'
          LineWidth: 0.8000
             Marker: 'none'
         MarkerSize: 6
    MarkerFaceColor: 'none'
              XData: [1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10]
              YData: [0 0.1111 0.2222 0.3333 0.4444 0.5556 0.6667 0.7778 0.8889 1]
              ZData: [1�0 double]

Research direction

Reproduce the Windows case using the issue's Julia entry points: using MATLAB, linspace, and eval_string. Inspect the Julia–MATLAB Engine boundary for character encoding; done means the reported ZData display renders 1×0 on Windows as it does on Linux.
