ValidateRangeAttribute Class

[This topic is pre-release documentation and is subject to change in future releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]

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)
VB
Copy 
'Usage
Dim instance As ValidateRangeAttribute
C#
C++
VB
Copy 
[AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Property|AttributeTargets.Field)] 
public sealed class ValidateRangeAttribute : ValidateEnumeratedArgumentsAttribute
J#
Copy 
/** @attribute AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Property|AttributeTargets.Field) */ 
public final class ValidateRangeAttribute extends ValidateEnumeratedArgumentsAttribute
JScript
Copy 
AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Property|AttributeTargets.Field) 
public final class ValidateRangeAttribute extends ValidateEnumeratedArgumentsAttribute

This example specifies a range of 0 to 5 for the InputData parameter.

C#
Copy 
[ValidateRange(0, 5)]
[Parameter(Position = 0, Mandatory = true)]
public int InputData
{
  get { return inputData; }
  set { inputData = value; }
}

private int inputData;

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.


Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
