SourceText Property

Contains the line of source code that caused an error.

Copy 

                      Object.SourceText

Object

WshRemoteError object.

The SourceText property returns a string.

It is not always possible to obtain the source text. If that is the case, the SourceText property returns an empty string.

The following JScript code demonstrates how the WshRemoteError object exposes the line of source code that caused an error.

VBScript
Copy 
Dim Controller, RemoteScript
Set Controller = WScript.CreateObject("WSHController")
Set RemoteScript = Controller.CreateScript("test.js", "remoteserver")
WScript.ConnectObject RemoteScript, "remote_"
RemoteScript.Execute

Do While RemoteScript.Status <> 2 
    WScript.Sleep 100
Loop

Sub remote_Error
    Dim theError
    Set theError = RemoteScript.Error
    WScript.Echo "Error - Line: " & theError.Line & ", Char: " & theError.Character & vbCrLf & "Description: " & theError.Description & vbCrLf & "Source Text: " & theError.SourceText
    WScript.Quit -1
End Sub
JScript
Copy 
var Controller = WScript.CreateObject("WSHController");
var RemoteScript = Controller.CreateScript("test.js", "remoteserver");
WScript.ConnectObject(RemoteScript, "remote_");
RemoteScript.Execute();

while (RemoteScript.Status != 2) {
    WScript.Sleep(100);
}

function remote_Error()
{
    var theError = RemoteScript.Error;
    WScript.Echo("Error - Line: " + theError.Line + ", Char: " + theError.Character + "\nDescription: " + theError.Description + "\nSource Text: "_+ theError.SourceText);
    WScript.Quit(-1);
}
