Parameters
- sendToPipeline
The object to be written to the output pipeline.
| Exception type | Condition |
|---|
| PipelineStoppedException | The pipeline is stopped. The pipeline was terminated either before the call was made or while the call was in progress. By default, the cmdlet should allow the caller of the processing record method to catch this exception. |
| InvalidOperationException | The call cannot be completed at this time or cannot be completed from this thread. For more information, see the following Remarks section. |
This method can be called only from within the implementation of an input processing method (BeginProcessing, ProcessRecord, and EndProcessing) and only from that thread. If the call is made from outside these implementations or from another thread, an InvalidOperationException exception is thrown.
This method sends a single object to the pipeline, regardless of whether the object is or is not a collection. To send a collection that is then enumerated by Windows PowerShell, see the Cmdlet.WriteObject(Object,Boolean) method.
Cmdlets can also write to the debug, error, progress, warning, and verbose data streams by using the following methods:
For more information about cmdlets, see Windows PowerShell Cmdlets.
