Command Class

The Command object can be used in two ways.

• The AddCommand method of the PowerShell object can use the Command object when creating a pipeline.

• The Invoke or InvokeAsync methods of the Pipeline object can use the Command object when invoking the pipeline.

  In this case, the Command objects are contained in a CommandCollection that is accessed through the Commands property.

Windows PowerShell provides two classes that can define a command. The PSCommand class allows you to build a pipeline of commands (A|B|C) that contain one or more cmdlets and scripts. In contrast, the Command class allows you to specify only a single cmdlet or script in the command.
