RunSpace06 Code Sample
Here is the source code for the Runspace06 sample described in Configuring a Runspace Using a Windows PowerShell Snap-in. This sample application creates a runspace based on a Windows PowerShell snap-in, which is then used to run a pipeline with a single command. To do this, the application creates the runspace configuration information, creates a runspace, creates a pipeline with a single command, and then executes the pipeline.
Note
You can download the C# source file (runspace06.cs) by using the Windows Software Development Kit for Windows Vista and Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 Runtime Components. For download instructions, see How to Install Windows PowerShell and Download the Windows PowerShell SDK. The downloaded source files are available in the <PowerShell Samples> directory.
