Invoking Cmdlets and Scripts Within a Cmdlet

A cmdlet can invoke other cmdlets and scripts from within the input processing method of the cmdlet. This allows you to add the functionality of existing cmdlets and scripts to your cmdlet without having to rewrite the code.

The Invoke Method

All cmdlets can invoke an existing cmdlet by calling the System.Management.Automation.Cmdlet.Invoke method from within an input processing method, such as System.Management.Automation.Cmdlet.BeginProcessing, that is overridden by the cmdlet. However, you can invoke only those cmdlets that derive directly from the System.Management.Automation.Cmdlet class. You cannot invoke a cmdlet that derives from the System.Management.Automation.PSCmdlet class.

The System.Management.Automation.Cmdlet.Invoke* method has the following variants.

System.Management.Automation.Cmdlet.Invoke This variant invokes the cmdlet object and returns a collection of "T" type objects.

System.Management.Automation.Cmdlet.Invoke This variant invokes the cmdlet object and returns a strongly typed enumerator. This variant allows the user to use the objects in the collection to perform custom operations.
