Defines an attribute that uses minimum and maximum values to validate a cmdlet parameter argument (This attribute can also be used by Windows PowerShell functions.)
Namespace: System.Management.Automation
Assembly: System.Management.Automation (in system.management.automation.dll)
Usage
Syntax
<AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Property Or AttributeTargets.Field)> _
Public NotInheritable Class ValidateRangeAttribute
Inherits ValidateEnumeratedArgumentsAttribute
[AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Property|AttributeTargets.Field)]
public sealed class ValidateRangeAttribute : ValidateEnumeratedArgumentsAttribute
[AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets::Property|AttributeTargets::Field)]
public ref class ValidateRangeAttribute sealed : public ValidateEnumeratedArgumentsAttribute
/** @attribute AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Property|AttributeTargets.Field) */
public final class ValidateRangeAttribute extends ValidateEnumeratedArgumentsAttribute
AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Property|AttributeTargets.Field)
public final class ValidateRangeAttribute extends ValidateEnumeratedArgumentsAttribute
Example
This example specifies a range of 0 to 5 for the InputData parameter.
[ValidateRange(0, 5)]
[Parameter(Position = 0, Mandatory = true)]
public int InputData
{
get { return inputData; }
set { inputData = value; }
}
private int inputData;
Remarks
There are no established scenarios for explicitly creating a ValidateRangeAttribute object from within a cmdlet. The ValidateRangeAttribute object is created and used indirectly when the attribute is declared.
The cmdlet declares this attribute when implementing a cmdlet parameter. For more information about the syntax and parameters used to declare this attribute within a cmdlet, see ValidateRange Attribute Declaration.
