Hello there!
What if I want to give my desktop application some scripting
capabilities by exposing the object model of it. How do we do that?
Are their any JavaScript Execution Engines out their?

If you want to build local desktop applicaitions..microsoft have
something called as HTAs : HTML Applications.. if you have idea about
HTCs (HTML components).. you can build them right away using
JavaScript

My answer may not answer your question though please elaborate..what
exactly you want to do

I mean that some applications expose their object model to be consumed
by clients. For example, Microsoft word itself exposes and object
model which you can utilize to automate the tasks for your routine
work. And for that, Visual Basic is the language. Suppose I have an
application of my own in C++ and I expose the object model of it but I
want that it should be programmable in JavaScript.
Definately, for that I would need some execution engine that can
execute the javascript. So is there any open source implementation out
their?
Not sure I conveyed what I am trying to say... But anyhow thank you
very much for your response!

Microsoft also has the MS Script Control, which will host VbScript / JScript
(and supposedly any IActiveScript capable script Engine). It is an ActiveX
component that Is pretty easy to work with.
