• status LoadModule( moduleFileName )

see jshost

Properties

• _Object global

is the global object.

• _Array arguments

is the host path 0 and whole command line 1.

• _boolean isfirstinstance

is true ic the current instance is the first one. This can help to avoid jswinhost to be run twice at the same time.

Configuration object

see jshost

Remarks

There is no way to specify the script to execute using the command line. You have to create a .js file using the name of the host. By default, jswinhost.exe is the name of the host and jswinhost.js is the script the host execute.

Because jwinshost do not use a console window, errors and printed messages will not be displayed.

However, you can write your own output system:

LoadModule('jswinshell');
_configuration.stdout = new Console().Write;
_configuration.stderr = MessageBox;
LoadModule('jsstd');
Print('toto');
hkqjsfhkqsdu_error();
