ScriptEngine Property
Returns a String representing the runtime currently in use.
ReadOnly Public Property ScriptEngine As String
Remarks
The ScriptEngine property returns the string "VB".
You can use ScriptEngine when your application is running as a standalone program, in a script, or in a host application.
Example
The following example uses the ScriptEngine property and related properties to return a string describing the current run-time information:
Function getRuntimeInfo() As String
Dim runtime As String = ScriptEngine & " Version "
runtime &= CStr(ScriptEngineMajorVersion) & "."
runtime &= CStr(ScriptEngineMinorVersion) & "."
runtime &= CStr(ScriptEngineBuildVersion)
' Return the current runtime information.
Return runtime
End Function
Smart Device Developer Notes
This property is not supported.
Requirements
Namespace: Microsoft.VisualBasic
Module: Globals
Assembly: Visual Basic Runtime Library (in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll)
Because ScriptEngine is a member of a module, rather than of a class, you do not need to create an object on which to access ScriptEngine.
