protected:
virtual System::Collections::ObjectModel::Collection<System::Management::Automation::PSDriveInfo ^> ^ InitializeDefaultDrives();protected virtual System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection<System.Management.Automation.PSDriveInfo> InitializeDefaultDrives ();abstract member InitializeDefaultDrives : unit -> System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection<System.Management.Automation.PSDriveInfo>
override this.InitializeDefaultDrives : unit -> System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection<System.Management.Automation.PSDriveInfo>Protected Overridable Function InitializeDefaultDrives () As Collection(Of PSDriveInfo)Returns
A collection of the drives the provider wants to be added to the session upon initialization.
The default implementation returns an empty PSDriveInfo collection.
Remarks
After the Start method is called on a provider, the InitializeDefaultDrives
method is called. This is an opportunity for the provider to
mount drives that are important to it. For instance, the Active Directory
provider might mount a drive for the defaultNamingContext if the
machine is joined to a domain.
All providers should mount a root drive to help the user with discoverability.
This root drive might contain a listing of a set of locations that would be
interesting as roots for other mounted drives. For instance, the Active
Directory provider my create a drive that lists the naming contexts found
in the namingContext attributes on the RootDSE. This will help users
discover interesting mount points for other drives.
