When you extend .NET Framework objects, you can add alias properties, code properties, note properties, script properties, and property sets to the objects. The XML that defines these properties is described in the following sections.

Note

The examples in the following sections are from the default Types.ps1xml types file in the PowerShell installation directory ($PSHOME). For more information, see About Types.ps1xml.

Alias properties

An alias property defines a new name for an existing property.

In the following example, the Count property is added to the System.Array type. The AliasProperty element defines the extended property as an alias property. The Name element specifies the new name. And, the ReferencedMemberName element specifies the existing property that is referenced by the alias. You can also add the AliasProperty element to the members of the MemberSets element.

<Type>
  <Name>System.Array</Name>
  <Members>
    <AliasProperty>
      <Name>Count</Name>
      <ReferencedMemberName>Length</ReferencedMemberName>
    </AliasProperty>
  </Members>
</Type>

Code properties

A code property references a static property of a .NET Framework object.

In the following example, the Mode property is added to the System.IO.DirectoryInfo type. The CodeProperty element defines the extended property as a code property. The Name element specifies the name of the extended property. And, the GetCodeReference element defines the static method that is referenced by the extended property. You can also add the CodeProperty element to the members of the MemberSets element.

<Type>
  <Name>System.IO.DirectoryInfo</Name>
  <Members>
    <CodeProperty>
      <Name>Mode</Name>
      <GetCodeReference>
        <TypeName>Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.FileSystemProvider</TypeName>
        <MethodName>Mode</MethodName>
      </GetCodeReference>
    </CodeProperty>
  </Members>
</Type>

Note properties

A note property defines a property that has a static value.

In the following example, the Status property, whose value is always Success, is added to the System.IO.DirectoryInfo type. The NoteProperty element defines the extended property as a note property. The Name element specifies the name of the extended property. The Value element specifies the static value of the extended property. The NoteProperty element can also be added to the members of the MemberSets element.

<Type>
  <Name>System.IO.DirectoryInfo</Name>
  <Members>
    <NoteProperty>
      <Name>Status</Name>
      <Value>Success</Value>
    </NoteProperty>
  </Members>
</Type>

Script properties

A script property defines a property whose value is the output of a script.

In the following example, the VersionInfo property is added to the System.IO.FileInfo type. The ScriptProperty element defines the extended property as a script property. The Name element specifies the name of the extended property. And, the GetScriptBlock element specifies the script that generates the property value. You can also add the ScriptProperty element to the members of the MemberSets element.

<Type>
  <Name>System.IO.FileInfo</Name>
  <Members>
    <ScriptProperty>
      <Name>VersionInfo</Name>
      <GetScriptBlock>
        [System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo]::GetVersionInfo($this.FullName)
      </GetScriptBlock>
    </ScriptProperty>
  </Members>
</Type>

Property sets

A property set defines a group of extended properties that can be referenced by the name of the set. For example, the Format-Table Property parameter can specify a specific property set to be displayed. When a property set is specified, only those properties that belong to the set are displayed.

There's no restriction on the number of property sets that can be defined for an object. However, the property sets used to define the default display properties of an object must be specified within the PSStandardMembers member set. In the Types.ps1xml types file, the default property set names include DefaultDisplayProperty, DefaultDisplayPropertySet, and DefaultKeyPropertySet. Any additional property sets that you add to the PSStandardMembers member set are ignored.

In the following example, the DefaultDisplayPropertySet property set is added to the PSStandardMembers member set of the System.Serviceprocess.Servicecontroller type. The PropertySet element defines the group of properties. The Name element specifies the name of the property set. And, the ReferencedProperties element specifies the properties of the set. You can also add the PropertySet element to the members of the Type element.

<Type>
  <Name>System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController</Name>
  <Members>
    <MemberSet>
      <Name>PSStandardMembers</Name>
      <Members>
        <PropertySet>
           <Name>DefaultDisplayPropertySet</Name>
           <ReferencedProperties>
            <Name>Status</Name
            <Name>Name</Name>
            <Name>DisplayName</Name>
          </ReferencedProperties>
        </PropertySet>
      </Members>
    </MemberSet>
  </Members>
</Type>
