StopProcessSample01 Sample

Articolo
09/15/2023

This sample shows how to write a cmdlet that requests feedback from the user before it attempts to stop a process, and how to implement a PassThru parameter indicating that the user wants the cmdlet to return an object. This cmdlet is similar to the Stop-Process cmdlet provided by Windows PowerShell 2.0.

How to build the sample by using Visual Studio

With the Windows PowerShell 2.0 SDK installed, navigate to the StopProcessSample01 folder. The default location is C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Samples\sysmgmt\WindowsPowerShell\csharp\StopProcessSample01.
Double-click the icon for the solution (.sln) file. This opens the sample project in Microsoft Visual Studio.
In the Build menu, select Build Solution to build the library for the sample in the default \bin or \bin\debug folders.

How to run the sample

Create the following module folder:

[user]\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\StopProcessSample01
Copy the sample assembly to the module folder.
Start Windows PowerShell.
Run the following command to load the assembly into Windows PowerShell:

Import-Module stopprossessample01
Run the following command to run the cmdlet:

stop-proc

Requirements

This sample requires Windows PowerShell 2.0.

Demonstrates

This sample demonstrates the following.

Declaring a cmdlet class by using the Cmdlet attribute.
Declaring a cmdlet parameters by using the Parameter attribute.
Calling the ShouldProcess method to request confirmation.
Implementing a PassThru parameter that indicates if the user wants the cmdlet to return an object. By default, this cmdlet does not return an object to the pipeline.

Example

This sample shows how to implement a PassThru parameter that indicates that the user wants the cmdlet to return an object, and how to request user feedback by calls to the ShouldProcess and ShouldContinue methods.
