Add-Type. Create .NetFramework Class equivalent in PowerShell
There's a possibility to create and use .NetFramework class in PowerShell via cmdlet "Add-Type". You should use New-Object cmdlet to instantiate objects.
The code below is an example to initialize Class "CarCL" and to create 2 objects of this class - $box and $car.
if (-not ([System.Management.Automation.PSTypeName]'CarCL').Type)
{
Add-Type @'
public class CarCL
{
public string Width;
public string Height;
}
'@
}
$obj = New-Object CarCL
$obj.Height = 50
$obj.Width = 100
$box = New-Object CarCL
$box.Height = 200
$box.Width = 200
Write-Host $obj.Height $obj.Width
Write-Host $box.Height $box.Width
If you don't use construction like ' if (-not ([System.Management.
Add-Type : Cannot add type. The type name 'CarCL' already exists.
