ExeScript Host Language

If you set Execution Type to Compile, you can use the following properties and methods of the WScript object implemented in ExeScript:

WScript.FullName - Full path to the executable file+exe name. Example: c:\test\1.exe
WScript.Name = "ExeScript Host"
WScript.ScriptFullName - Work Directory + script name. Example: "C:\Documents and Settings\Login\Local Settings\Temp\untitled1.vbs"
WScript.ScriptName - Script file name. Example: untitled1.vbs
WScript.Sleep(time) - Script delay, in milliseconds.
WScript.Version = 5.6
WScript.BuildVersion = 8820
WScript.Interactive = (true or false). Shows the ExeScript property - SilentMode.

Note: The relation is inverse here: If interactive=true, then silentmode=false.

WScript.Echo [arg1] [,arg2] [,arg3] : - For displaying on the screen according to the SilentMode and ScriptType properties.
WScript.Arguments - Command line arguments either specified in ExeScript properties or sent as exe file parameters.
WScript.Quit(result) - Terminating the script with the specified error code result.

WScript.StdErr - Exposes the write-only error output stream for the current script.
WScript.StdIn - Exposes the read-only input stream for the current script.
WScript.StdOut - Exposes the write-only output stream for the current script.

WScript.GetObject(strPathname [,strProgID], [strPrefix]) - Returns an existing object with the specified ProgID or creates a new one from the file.

strPathname - The fully qualified path name of the file that contains the object persisted to disk.

strProgID
Optional. The object's program identifier (ProgID).

strPrefix
Optional. Used when you want to sync the object's events. If you supply the strPrefix argument, ExeScript connects the object's outgoing interface to the script file after creating the object.

WScript.CreateObject(strProgID[,strPrefix]) - Creates a COM object.

strProgID
String value indicating the programmatic identifier (ProgID) of the object you want to create.

strPrefix
Optional. String value indicating the function prefix.

Wscript.ConnectObject(objEventSource, strPrefix) - Connects the object's event sources to functions with a given prefix.

objEventSource
Required. Object you want to connect.

strPrefix
Required. String value indicating the function prefix.

Wscript.DisconnectObject(obj) - Disconnects a connected object's event sources.

Obj - String value indicating the name of the object to disconnect.
