VBScriptEngineExecuteCommand Method

Executes script code as a command.

Namespace:  Microsoft.ClearScript.Windows.Core
Assembly:  ClearScript.Windows.Core (in ClearScript.Windows.Core.dll) Version: 7.2.4
Syntax
public override string ExecuteCommand(
	string command
)

Parameters

command
Type: SystemString
The script command to execute.

Return Value

Type: String
The command output.
Remarks

This method is similar to Evaluate(String) but optimized for command consoles. The specified command must be limited to a single expression or statement. Script engines can override this method to customize command execution as well as the process of converting the result to a string for console output.

The VBScriptEngine version of this method supports both expressions and statements. If the specified command begins with "eval " (not case-sensitive), the engine executes the remainder as an expression and attempts to use CStr to convert the result value. Otherwise, it executes the command as a statement and does not return a value.
