Permission Denied For Msgbox about clearscript

[ClearScriptLib]

Hi @jaskaran0001,

You need to set the engine's HostWindow property to a non-null value. Once you've done that, VBScript's MsgBox and InputBox functions should work.

Here's a full sample program:

using System;
using Microsoft.ClearScript.Windows;

namespace TestApp {
    internal class Window : IHostWindow {
        public IntPtr OwnerHandle {
            get { return IntPtr.Zero; }
        }
        public void EnableModeless(bool enable) {
            throw new NotImplementedException();
        }
    }
    public static class Program {
        public static void Main() {
            using (var engine = new VBScriptEngine()) {
                engine.HostWindow = new Window();
                engine.Evaluate("MsgBox(\"Ready?\", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, \"Let's Go!\")");
            }
        }
    }
}

Cheers!

Hi @jaskaran0001,

For the MsgBox and InputBox functions to work, you must provide an implementation of IHostWindow. Here's a minimal example:

internal class HostWindow : IHostWindow {
    public IntPtr OwnerHandle {
        get { return IntPtr.Zero; }
    }
    public void EnableModeless(bool enable) {
        throw new NotImplementedException();
    }
}

And then:

engine.HostWindow = new HostWindow();
engine.Execute("result = MsgBox(\"Ready?\", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, \"Let's Go!\")");

Good luck!

Thanks for the reply, but i could not figure out where do this implementation.
It would be very kind of you , if you could elaborate more.

Thanks !
