    I don't understand how to do this like for example:

    @void RequestMessage(SLOT *callback)
    {
    callback.Call(data);
    }@

    I want someone to be able to specify a function on which they get the callback.

      SLOT is a "function":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/signalsandslots.html#slots. It can either member of a class or standalone function.

      If you need to pass a slot to another function then declare that another function with pointer to a slot-function as a parameter and then call that parameter. An example with member function:
      @
      class A
      {
      ...
      public slots:
      void foo(int);
      ...
      };

      void otherFunction(void (A::*param)(int))
      {
      *param(10);
      }
      @
