When PowerShell hash table magic backfires(tellingmachine.com)

submitted by Klaus(755) 3 years, 1 month ago

We just made it through the holidays and I finally found time to write about the most annoying thing in PowerShell: Hash table semi-automatic, which can easily result in some subtle bugs. And all of that, just because the hash tables don't behave as I would expect. I assumed hash tables to be implicitly sorted by the keys using the Sort-Object cmdlet and to always stay hash tables and not get converted into arrays of Dictionary Entries or even a single Dictionary entry when piped into a Where-Object cmdlet. To workaround these strange defects you need to apply some unnatural constructs and roll your own select statements. It just doesn't feel fair to make your children call GetEnumerator() before they try to find today's window on their Advents Calendar. read more...

One PowerShell Script to download PDC2008 Videos, Code and PowerPoints(tellingmachine.com)

submitted by Klaus(755) 3 years, 2 months ago

Yes I did it. I downloaded all 65,563,667,714 bytes and saved them as 407 files on my nice new WD Passport hard drive that I brought home from the PDC2008. And, yes I did it the old fashioned manual way: Right-Click on link and Save-As. But you don't have to do it. In this blog post I provide the metadata of all the files I downloaded and a PowerShell script that will help you automating the download process. Besides the PDC content you also get to a treasure trove of PowerShell scripting techniques ranging from dynamically generating Regular Expressions to loading meta-data form XML and CSV files. read more...

PowerShell & WebServices(cglessner.blogspot.com)

submitted by cglessner(75) 3 years, 5 months ago

In this posting I'm going to show how you can generate a Webservice-Proxy on the fly in PowerShell. After that we'll use it with a SharePoint WebService. To generate the Webservice-Proxy Source Code we will use the Windows SDK Tool wsdl.exe. Then we'll compile the generated code with the .NET Framework Compiler csc.exe and load it into the PowerShell. read more...

Speeding Up PowerShell Startup(blogs.msdn.com)

submitted by wisemx(8074) 3 years, 7 months ago

I talked about this before but a number of people have missed it so here it is under a better title. In V1, we had a problem which caused our assemblies to not get ngen'ed during installation. If you don't know what "ngen" is, don't worry - you don't need to. All you need to know is that we didn't do the step that makes things go fast on your machine. The instructions for how to fix this are HERE. http://blogs.msdn.com/powershell/archive/2007/11/08/update-gac-ps1.aspx You should stop what you are doing and go run that script. If you've already done this in the past, it will be harmless but if you haven't, you'll be amazed at the improvement in startup times. Please tell all your friends to do this as well. A lot of people don't know about it and have a bad opinion about PowerShell startup times. After people run it, the typical reaction is, "WOW!". Cheers!
