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
Using the assembly name to hint at the source of the classes was
problematic in multiple ways.
This change stores the actual filename in an attribute on the assembly.
So for a given type, one can get the assembly this way:
[SomeType].Assembly.GetCustomAttributes() |
? { $_ -is [System.Management.Automation.DynamicClassImplementationAssemblyAttribute] } |
% { $_.ScriptFile }
To improve code clarity and give better error messages when using ValidateRange, you can now specify:
```
[ValidateRange(ValidateRangeKind.Positive)]
```
instead of
```
[ValidateRange(1, 2147483647)]
```
Valid kinds are:
Positive
Negative
NonPostiive
NonNegative
- Fix invalid value error message on some properties of ParameterAttribute to point to the specific properties.
- Avoid wrapping argument exception into not a useful 'requires' exception.
Currently `ValidateSetAttribute` accepts only explicit constants as valid values. This is a significant limitation. Sometimes we need to get valid values dynamically, ex., Azure VMs, logged-on users and so on. The PR add follow possibilities:
- pass a _custom type_ (a valid values generator) implementing `IValidateSetValuesGenerator` interface to get valid values dynamically.
- pass a _custom type_ (a valid values generator) derived from `CachedValidValuesGeneratorBase` abstract class to get valid values dynamically and _cache_ the list to share with other ValidateSetAttribute attributes.
This makes it possibe to write for example
[ValidatePattern('[A-Z]:', ErrorMessage='The Drive should be specified as a single letter followed by a colon, for example "D:"')]
[string] $Drive,
The element being validated is also passed, so {0} can be used in the custom error message
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.
