ArgumentTransformationAttribute Class

Definition

Serves as the base class for attributes that perform argument transformation.

public ref class ArgumentTransformationAttribute abstract : System::Management::Automation::Internal::CmdletMetadataAttribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Field | System.AttributeTargets.Property)]
public abstract class ArgumentTransformationAttribute : System.Management.Automation.Internal.CmdletMetadataAttribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Field | System.AttributeTargets.Property)>]
type ArgumentTransformationAttribute = class
    inherit CmdletMetadataAttribute

Remarks

Argument transformation attributes can be attached to Cmdlet and CmdletProvider parameters to automatically transform the argument value in some fashion. The transformation might change the object, convert the type, or even load a file or AD object based on the name. Existing argument transformation attributes include System.Management.Automation.ArgumentTypeConverterAttribute. Custom argument transformation attributes should derive from ArgumentTransformationAttribute and override the Transform(EngineIntrinsics, Object) abstract method, after which they can apply the attribute to their parameters. It is also recommended to override ToString() to return a readable string similar to the attribute declaration, for example "[ValidateRangeAttribute(5,10)]". If multiple transformations are defined on a parameter, they will be invoked in series, each getting the output of the previous transformation.

Constructors

Methods
