A sample showing how to run VBScript, JScript snippets from C++

RunScriptDemo

I've put together a "Hello World" IActiveScript C++ ATL console application that:

• Define CSimpleScriptSite class
  • Implement IActiveScriptSite interface (mandatory)
  • Implement IActiveScriptSiteWindow interface (optional)
  • Minimum implementation with most functions implemented with a dummy stub
  • Has no error handling. Consult MSDN IActiveScriptError.
• Use CoCreateInstance a new IActiveSite object
  • Create instances of both VBScript and JScript
  • Link the IActiveSite to IActiveScriptSite using IActiveSite::SetScriptSite
  • Call QueryInterface to get an IActiveScriptParse interface
  • Use IActiveScriptParse to execute VBScript or JScript code
• The sample:
  • Evaluates an expression in JScript
  • Evaluates an expression in VBScript
  • Runs a command in VBScript
