Expands line continuance for pipelines to allow lines to continue automatically without backticks with the pipe symbol at the start of a line.
This adds to the existing functionality where pipes can be used to continue lines by placing them at the end of a line.
Fix#8028
This change adds support for specifying the underlying type for an enum:
```powershell
enum MyEnum : long
{
A = 0x0FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
B
}
# or
enum MyByte : byte
{
A = 0x01
B = 0x02
C = 0x03
D
}
```
After parsing `if () { }`, new lines are skipped in order to see if either `elseif` or `else` is present. When neither is present, we should resync back to the pointer before skipping those possibly available new lines, so that the new line tokens can be utilized by the subsequent parsing.
Many error messages in PowerShell currently use a LINQ expression to pass both the name of the error and the message through in the error processing. This PR uses the `nameof` feature to carry the error name/ID and gets rid of LINQ expression reflection, hopefully improving performance, especially in editor scenarios.
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
Implements support for backgrounding pipelines with &. Putting & at the end of a pipeline will cause the pipeline
to be run as a PowerShell job. When a pipeline is backgrounded a job object is returned. Once the pipeline is
running as a job, all of the normal job cmdlets can be used to manage the job. Variables (ignoring process-specific
variables) used in the pipeline are automatically copied to the job so
copy $foo $bar &
just works. The job is also run in the current directory instead of the user's home directory as is the case with Start-Job.Implement
Interactive hosts expect an `IncompleteParseException` to signal that more input is expected.
When detecting errors, the parser can report 2 positions:
* where the error should be reported
* where the error was detected
Typically these are the same, so most error reporting methods have a single parameter.
For missing braces, the pattern is supposed to be to report the error after the opening brace, but the error is typically detected at the end of the file.
There were a few places where we were not consistent in reporting such errors, this PR corrects those places.
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.
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.
