Methods
| Compare(Object, Object, Boolean, IFormatProvider) |
Compare first and second, converting second to the type of the first, if necessary. |
| Compare(Object, Object, Boolean) |
Compare first and second, converting second to the type of the first, if necessary. |
| Compare(Object, Object) |
Compare first and second, converting second to the type of the first, if necessary. |
| ConvertPSObjectToType(PSObject, Type, Boolean, IFormatProvider, Boolean) |
Converts PSObject to resultType. |
| ConvertTo(Object, Type, IFormatProvider) |
Converts valueToConvert to resultType possibly considering formatProvider. |
| ConvertTo(Object, Type) |
Converts valueToConvert to resultType. |
| ConvertTo<T>(Object) |
Generic convertto that simplifies working with workflow. |
| ConvertTypeNameToPSTypeName(String) |
BUGBUG - brucepay Mar. 2013 - I don't think this is general enough for dynamic keywords to support arbitrary target languages with arbitrary type representations so we may need an extension point here... Maps a .NET or CIM type name string (e.g. SInt32) to the form expected by PowerShell users, namely "[typename]" If there is no mapping, then it returns null. If the string to convert is null or empty then the function returns "[object]" as the default typeless type. |
| Equals(Object, Object, Boolean, IFormatProvider) |
Used to compare two objects for equality converting the second to the type of the first, if required. |
| Equals(Object, Object, Boolean) |
Used to compare two objects for equality converting the second to the type of the first, if required. |
| Equals(Object, Object) |
Used to compare two objects for equality converting the second to the type of the first, if required. |
| GetEnumerable(Object) |
Retrieves the IEnumerable of obj or null if the language does not consider obj to be IEnumerable. |
| GetEnumerator(Object) |
Retrieves the IEnumerator of obj or null if the language does not consider obj as capable of returning an IEnumerator. |
| GetPSDataCollection(Object) |
This method takes a an arbitrary object and wraps it in a PSDataCollection of PSObject. This simplifies interacting with the PowerShell workflow activities. |
| IsObjectEnumerable(Object) |
Returns True if the language considers obj to be IEnumerable. |
| IsTrue(Object) |
Returns true if the language considers obj to be true. |
| TryCompare(Object, Object, Boolean, IFormatProvider, Int32) |
Tries to compare first and second, converting second to the type of the first, if necessary. If a conversion is needed but fails, false is return. |
| TryCompare(Object, Object, Boolean, Int32) |
Tries to compare first and second, converting second to the type of the first, if necessary. If a conversion is needed but fails, false is return. |
| TryCompare(Object, Object, Int32) |
Tries to compare first and second, converting second to the type of the first, if necessary. If a conversion is needed but fails, false is return. |
| TryConvertTo(Object, Type, IFormatProvider, Object) |
Sets result to valueToConvert converted to resultType considering formatProvider for custom conversions, calling the Parse method and calling Convert.ChangeType. |
| TryConvertTo(Object, Type, Object) |
Sets result to valueToConvert converted to resultType. |
| TryConvertTo<T>(Object, IFormatProvider, T) |
Sets result to valueToConvert converted to resultType considering formatProvider for custom conversions, calling the Parse method and calling Convert.ChangeType. |
| TryConvertTo<T>(Object, T) |
Sets result to valueToConvert converted to resultType. |
