Microsoft Windows Script Host 2.0 Developer's Guide Comments and Corrections (305467)

MORE INFORMATION

CD-ROM: Code Error In ErrorTest2.js Sample

The sample file ErrorTest2.js found in the \WSHDevGuide\Chapter02 directory of the companion CD contains an error. This error prevents the debugger from starting at the debugger statement. Change line 22 from:
"WScript.Quit(); ' Quit the script"

To:
"WScript.Quit();"

The apostrophe was a comment character in the original VBScript, but is understood as an opening quotation mark by the JScript interpreter. Since there is no closing quotation mark, a syntax error occurs before the debugger statement is executed.

Page 31: WSH File Extension Should Be WSF

There is an error in step 3 at the top of page 31.

Change:
"3. Repeat step 2, and add DWORD values for js and wsh."

To:
"3. Repeat step 2, and add DWORD values for js and wsf."

Page 66: 0011 Decimal Should Be 0011 Binary

There is an error at the top of page 66.

Change:
"...value 3 is equivalent to 0011 decimal,"

To:
"...value 3 is equivalent to 0011 binary,"

Page 216: Invalid Element In Code Sample

The code sample on page 216 includes an invalid element.

The "</hr>" element should be completely removed from the bottom of the page.

Page 289: Incorrect Reference To RegDel Method

There is an incorrect reference to the DelReg method on page 289.

Change:
"To delete a value or a key, you can use the RegDel method with ..."
