Cmdlet Output Object in Windows PowerShell
What is the output object of a cmdlet in Windows PowerShell?
✍: FYIcenter.com
When PowerShell executes a cmdlet, it actually calls the .NET class that implements the cmdlet.
When the cmdlet class finishes execution, it will return a data object to PowerShell. This allows PowerShell to:
For example, the "get-date" cmdlet returns a DateTime object. If you run it at the end of the cmdlet pipeline, the output DateTime object will be converted to a string representing the DateTime object:
PS C:\fyicenter> get-date 07-01-2016 Friday, July 01, 2016 12:00:00 AM
Now, if we pipe the output object into the "format-list" cmdlet, individual properties of the output object will be displayed in a list format:
PS C:\fyicenter> get-date 07-01-2016 | format-list DisplayHint : DateTime Date : 7/1/2016 12:00:00 AM Day : 1 DayOfWeek : Friday DayOfYear : 183 Hour : 0 Kind : Unspecified Millisecond : 0 Minute : 0 Month : 7 Second : 0 Ticks : 636029280000000000 TimeOfDay : 00:00:00 Year : 2016 DateTime : Friday, July 01, 2016 12:00:00 AM
