'GetTypeInfo()' were added when porting PowerShell to early version of .NET Core (prior .NET Core 1.0).
Most properties and methods in 'System.Type' were missing at that time. Now the call is not needed anymore and should be removed.
Clean up workflow logic in the module loading component.
Workflow module is not supported in PSCore.
Currently, Import-Module throws a terminating error when seeing .xaml modules. After the change, Import-Module throws a non-terminating error when seeing .xaml modules.
Based on standard practices, we need to have a copyright and license notice at the top of each source file. Removed existing copyrights and updated/added copyright notices for .h, .cpp, .cs, .ps1, and .psm1 files.
Updated module manifests for consistency to have Author = "PowerShell" and Company = "Microsoft Corporation". Removed multiple line breaks.
Separate PR coming to update contribution document for new source files: #6140
Manually reviewed each change.
Fix#6073
* Adding PowerShellHelpFiles package which contains default.help.txt to powershell-win-core
* Adding test case to validate that <pshome>/<culture>/default.help.txt is present. This is done by calling 'Get-Help'
* Updating get-help to skip searching for the help file when the InternalTestHooks.BypassOnlineHelpRetrieval is enable. This way, we force get-help to generate a metadata driven help object, which includes a helpUri that points to the fwlink defined in the cmdlet code.
* Updating get-help -online <cmdletName> tests to not delete the help files. Instead, I've added logic to get-help to not find the help file when the test hook BypassOnlineHelpRetrieval is enable.
Mostly using R# to automatically refactor, with some manual
fixups where it wouldn't work automatically (e.g. xml comments
on fields) or some it seemed to miss.
Some minor code reformatting was also done on properties near
other stuff I was manually inspecting.
I (Jason Shirk) ran https://github.com/dotnet/codeformatter with the default rules, basically:
codeformatter /nocopyright "/c:DEBUG,UNIX,CORECLR" @files.rsp
This caused a few problems building, which were fixed up manually.
Notable changes:
`this.` is removed unless needed to disambiguate.
private instance fields are renamed to have a `_` prefix.
private static fields are renamed to have a `s_` prefix.
I left some projects alone (like PackageManagement) and also left some generated code alone.
