I have customer cmdlet implemented in .net. I would like to know all the parameters user passed to it.
My-Cmdlet -foo -bar -foobar
Basically i would like to know that user executed this cmdlet with parameter foo, bar, foobar programmatically.
Looks like in script we can do it using: $PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('WhatIf')
I need equalent of that in .net (c#)
As far as I remember: $PSBoundParameters is just shortcut for $MyInvocation.BoundParameters: $MyInvocation.BoundParameters.Equals($PSBoundParameters) True
If you want to get the same information in cmdlet that you wrote, you can get it like that...:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Management.Automation;
namespace Test
{
[Cmdlet(VerbsCommon.Get, "WhatIf", SupportsShouldProcess = true)]
public class GetWhatIf : PSCmdlet
{
// Methods
protected override void BeginProcessing()
{
this.WriteObject(this.MyInvocation.BoundParameters.ContainsKey("WhatIf").ToString());
}
}
}
The code is quick'n'dirty, but you should get the picture. Disclaimer: I'm not a developer, so I'm probably doing it wrong. ;)

InvocationInfo.UnboundParameters for any not bound to a paramter (eg. when there is a parameter has ValueFromRemainingArguments true).Off the top of my head, you can't without having access to the code, unless you create a proxy command around the cmdlet (wrap the command with a function) and add your custom code to it. Another idea would be to check the last executed command in the console history or a similar method.
Some how this.GetVariable for whatifpreference always returned false.
i worked around this by using myinvocation.buildparameters dictionary.
public bool WhatIf
{
get
{
//if (this.GetVaribaleValue<bool>("WhatIfPreference", out whatif))
return this.MyInvocation.BoundParameters.ContainsKey("WhatIf")
&& ((SwitchParameter)MyInvocation.BoundParameters["WhatIf"]).ToBool();
}
}
