Description
See this Comm Center thread by Stacey Mills. There are some problems with this, including the conditional #if DEBUG logic which causes //NoLogo to be applies twice in Debug more. Also, per the discussion:
  • The help text in the bottom box should say that paths with spaces need to be quoted, and also that the program "cscript.exe" is treated with care, the path to the 32-bit one is specifically used. Be sure to just use "cscript.exe" if your tool is a script.
  • If execution fails for a bad path it still returns success, then it pops that exit status balloon. Sort of cheesy. The error is in standard output when cscript can't find the script. Weird.
