param with array

[tdubb123]

is it possible to specify an array in param

script.ps1 $vmhosts ?

[LucD]

Of course, see this snippet for example.
Same goes for a script in a .ps1 file, define the param as an array ([PSObject[]]$VMHost for example)

function Do-Something

{

   param(

   [int[]]$Array

   )

   0..$Array.Count | % {

   $Array[$_]

   }

}

Do-Something -Array 1, 2, 3

thanks luc

any idea why write-host doesnt list them in column?

function Do-Something

{

param(

[PSObject[]]$VMHost

)

write-host $vmhost

}

$vmhost contents is

test1

test2

test3

test4

[LucD · Accepted solution]

Same reason the following is not listed in a column.

$vmhost = 'test1','test2','test3','test4'

Write-Host $vmhost

That is the way the PS output engine formats an array of strings.

If you want them on separate lines, you could do

$vmhost = 'test1','test2','test3','test4'

Write-Host ($vmhost -join "`n")
