2.2.3.16 InformationalRecord (DebugRecord, WarningRecord or VerboseRecord)

  • Article

InformationalRecord (that is, DebugRecord, WarningRecord or VerboseRecord) is a structure that contains additional information that a pipeline can output in addition to the regular data output.

This data type is a Complex Object (section 2.2.5.2) with the following extended properties (see section 2.2.5.2.9):

  • The message that a higher-layer pipeline or command wants to associate with the informational record.

  • Flag indicating whether or not other properties (section 2.2.3.15.1) listed below have been included in the object or not.

    • Property name: InformationalRecord_SerializeInvocationInfo

    • Property type: Boolean (section 2.2.5.1.3) value. When set to TRUE, indicates that InvocationInfo-specific extended properties (section 2.2.3.15.1) are present in the ErrorRecord.

  • The status, when this record was created, of the pipeline provided by the higher-layer. This SHOULD be set to the same value as InvocationInfo_PipelineIterationInfo (section 2.2.3.15.1). This property is present if and only if the SerializeExtendedInfo property is set to TRUE.

The Complex Object described in this section SHOULD include the following type names (section 2.2.5.2.3):

  • System.Management.Automation.InformationalRecord

  • System.Object

For a complete list of type names and for examples, see sections 2.2.2.22, 2.2.2.23, and 2.2.2.24.
