//  This example demonstrates using the built-in console object.
//  The Javascript run in this example is shown below.

//  Load the JavaScript from a file.
Chilkat.StringBuilder sbScript = new Chilkat.StringBuilder();

Chilkat.Js js = new Chilkat.Js();
Chilkat.JsonObject result = new Chilkat.JsonObject();

//  Run the JavaScript
//  Results (not console output) go to result.
//  Note: Eval returns the completion value of the script. This is generally the value of the last evaluated expression.
//  In this case, the last evaluated expression is console.log which does not calculate a value. Therefore, it returns undefined.
success = js.Eval(sbScript,result);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(sbScript.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  We can look at the result, which is "undefined", which is normal and expected.
Debug.WriteLine(result.Emit());
//  The result JSON is: {"type":"undefined","value":"undefined"}

//  The console output is retrieved by calling ConsoleOutputSb
