where are you using this script?

Hey I have a Ui script in which eval is used I want to replace it with GlideScopedEvaluator-->is it posibble

e: function() {

            var a = this.H();

            if (a.length > 0) return eval(this.B.CallFunction('<invoke name="executeCommand" returntype="javascript"><arguments><string>' + a.join("&#0;") + "</string></arguments></invoke>"))

        }-------->here

But I see in example scripts of GlideEvaluator It asks for glideRecord

@RiteshI 

UI script is client side and you cannot use GlideScopedEvaluator as it's server side.

Your use case is different
