* Fixing Invoke-WebRequest InFile parameter
* Adding aliases for Invoke-RestMethod and Invoke-WebRequest
* Adding test cases for Web cmdlets -InFile parameter
* Adding tests for Invoke-WebRequest (iwr) and Invoke-RestMethod (irm) using the cmdlet aliases.
* Remove the extra leading space
The tokenizer did multiple scans the script line to get tokens. Before
the fix the tokenizer on the first pass examined that string as
double-quoted (Expandable) string not as here string, figured the
average double quotation mark as a closing and then starting with the
single quotation mark continued processing the line as single-quoted
string which had no closing single quotation mark.
The fix is to stop the first scan pass after getting '=' (assume
assignment-expression '$a=' for next pass).
Type completion would behave strangely when there were multiple aliases for a given type (currently only possible with type accelerators).
The fix is to only select the accelerator that matches what the user typed.
Closes#2295
* Refactor 'FindMatchingHandler' to get rid of recursion
Search state can be saved and used throughout the searching process without the recursion.
* Rank the exception types based on how specific they are
* Refactor code to find handler based on the rank of given handlers
When a PS class is defined in a module and the module gets reloaded, the class would still use the SessionState from the old module for execution, and thus it doesn't reflect changes to the module state during the reload. This fix is to make sure we always use the current EngineSessionState for PS class execution.
Using LanguagePrimitives.ConvertTo (to emulate what would happen if the property were a regular .Net property typed as string), we now convert the value assigned to an XML property to string.
* RFC 0010 SSH remoting cmdlet updates.
* Tweaks to SSH remoting cmdlets
* SSHTransport parameter is now optional instead of mandatory. Aded fix for CoreCLR entry point when hosted in SSH as a subsystem.
* Added tests
* Code review feedback
* Code review comment changes
* Making SSHTransport switch parameter mandatory because otherwise existing Invoke-Command parameter set
* The new SSH parameter set was causing legacy positional based parameters to no longer work. This fix separates the SSH parameter sets from the existing WinRM parameter sets.
* Fixed region name spelling error.
Our private implementation of FailFast was likely introduced
when each individual application needed it's own code to
get Watson reports. The CLR takes care of this for us now,
so we don't need our implementation.
Our method CheckForSevereException was also introduced in
the early days of the CLR - the exceptions it was checking
for aren't actually raised the CLR anymore, they just FailFast.
I removed them as there is a tiny bit of overhead (in code size)
and also in the generated code, e.g. dynamic sites called the method.
- Start native process in Prepare() instead of Complete()
in NativeCommandProcessor.
- Remove unneeded input, output, error threads. Replaced by
simpler primitives.
An InformationRecord instance is created when calling Write-Host,
but many of the properties aren't read.
It can be expensive to initialize some of those properties, so
the code has been changed to initialize those properties on first access.
People use Out-Null despite much faster alternatives:
$null = Do-Stuff
[void] = Do-Stuff
Do-Stuff > $null
This change makes Out-Null work in roughly the same say as the above.
The optimization is to detect that we're calling the built-in Out-Null
cmdlet when invoking a pipeline from script (the change won't have any
effect in the PowerShell api). If we detect Out-Null, we rewrite the
pipe to look similar to `Do-Stuff > $null`.
There was a NullReferenceException after turning on constrained language mode
if creating a binding on a thread with no runspace.
The fix is to assume if there is no runspace that we are not in constrained language
mode, and also generate a binding restriction that assumes the same.
This is the fix to MSFT:9039127 [RFC] : SMA Jobs stop processing, show various status but never change or progress; due to deadlock in sandbox process.
The fix is brought to GitHub to make sure GitHub powershell always has the latest changes.
This is because with the latest .NET Core packages (1.1.0 preview), calling static members from 'Microsoft.Win32.Registry' will raise 'PlatformNotSupportedException'.
In PS Core on windows, we try to locate the default web browser and use it for online help. If we cannot find the default web browser (in NanoServer/IoT), we error out.
