IPropertyCmdletProvider Interface
Namespace: System.Management.Automation.Provider
Assembly: System.Management.Automation (in System.Management.Automation)
Developers should implement this interface under the following conditions:
-
When users must use cmdlets such as the Get-ItemProperty and Set-ItemPropertyy cmdlets.
-
For providers that derive from the ItemCmdletProvider, ContainerCmdletProvider, or NavigationCmdletProvider classes.
In this context, an "item" is an element of data within a data store. For example, the items exposed through the FileSystem provider can be files or directories. This interface provides the base operations for the other property provider interfaces.
Windows PowerShell provides a TemplateProvider.cs file that is available on the Windows SDK. To start writing your own provider make a copy of this file and use that copy to create your provider, removing any functionality that you do not need. For more information about designing a provider, see Designing Your Windows PowerShell Provider.
