    void Execute(
    	string documentName,
    	bool discard,
    	string code
    )

    Sub Execute (
    	documentName As String,
    	discard As Boolean,
    	code As String
    )

    void Execute(
    	String^ documentName,
    	bool discard,
    	String^ code
    )

    abstract Execute :
            documentName : string *
            discard : bool *
            code : string -> unit

#### Parameters

documentName String
  A document name for the script code. Currently, this name is used only as a label in presentation contexts such as debugger user interfaces.
discard Boolean
  True to discard the script document after execution, false otherwise.
code String
  The script code to execute.

Remarks

In some script languages the distinction between statements and expressions is significant but ambiguous for certain syntactic elements. This method always interprets the specified script code as a statement.

If a debugger is attached, it will present the specified script code to the user as a document with the specified name. Discarding this document removes it from view but has no effect on the script engine. Only Windows Script engines honor discard.
