inline-vbs

inline-vbs is a crate that allows you to embed VBScript code inside Rust code files. It uses the Active Scripting COM APIs to dynamically parse and execute (optionally, evaluate) code.

Basic usage

use inline_vbs::*;

fn main() {
    vbs! { On Error Resume Next } // tired of handling errors?
    vbs! { MsgBox "Hello, world!" }
    let language = "VBScript";
    assert_eq!(vbs_!['language & " Rocks!"], "VBScript Rocks!".into());
}

Macros:

vbs! - Executes a statement or evaluates an expression (depending on context)
vbs_! - Evaluates an expression
vbs_raw! - Executes a statement (string input instead of tokens, use for multiline code) See more examples in tests/tests.rs

Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
inline-vbs = "0.2.1"

Important: You need to have the MSVC Build Tools installed on your computer, as required by cc.

Limitations

Many. Most notably, IDispatch objects (i.e. what CreateObject returns) can't be passed to the engine (let x = vbs! { CreateObject("WScript.Shell") }; vbs! { y = 'x } won't work).

Motivation

N/A
