VBScript - Development Tools

Development Tools

Microsoft does not routinely make available an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for VBScript, although the Microsoft Script Editor has been reported. However, there are VBScript debuggers available from third-party sources, and there is syntax high-lighting either for VBScript or languages with similar syntax in many editors in the list of text editors. Apart from this, any text editor can be used to create a VBScript program; the important thing is to give the text file the necessary file extension i.e. .vbs.

During execution, when an error occurs, the script host reports an error message stating the error type (e.g. “syntax error”) together with the line number and position within the line where the error occurred.

Famous quotes containing the words development and/or tools:

    Understanding child development takes the emphasis away from the child’s character—looking at the child as good or bad. The emphasis is put on behavior as communication. Discipline is thus seen as problem-solving. The child is helped to learn a more acceptable manner of communication.
    Ellen Galinsky (20th century)

    Machinery is aggressive. The weaver becomes a web, the machinist a machine. If you do not use the tools, they use you. All tools are in one sense edge-tools, and dangerous.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
