如何在将PowerShell数组传递给函数时展开它

I have two PowerShell functions, the first of which invokes the second. They both take N arguments, and one of them is defined to simply add a flag and invoke the other. Here are example definitions:

我有两个PowerShell函数,第一个调用第二个函数。它们都带有N个参数,其中一个被定义为简单地添加一个标志并调用另一个。以下是示例定义:

function inner
{
  foreach( $arg in $args )
    {
      # do some stuff
    }
}

function outer
{
  inner --flag $args
}

Usage would look something like this:

用法看起来像这样:

inner foo bar baz

or this

outer wibble wobble wubble

The goal is for the latter example to be equivalent to

目标是后一个例子等同于

inner --flag wibble wobble wubble

The Problem: As defined here, the latter actually results in two arguments being passed to inner: the first is "--flag", and the second is an array containing "wibble", "wobble", and "wubble". What I want is for inner to receive four arguments: the flag and the three original arguments.

问题:如此处所定义,后者实际上导致两个参数传递给内部:第一个是“--flag”,第二个是包含“wibble”,“wobble”和“wubble”的数组。我想要的是内部接收四个参数:标志和三个原始参数。

So what I'm wondering is how to convince powershell to expand the $args array before passing it to inner, passing it as N elements rather than a single array. I believe you can do this in Ruby with the splatting operator (the * character), and I'm pretty sure PowerShell can do it, but I don't recall how.

所以我想知道如何说服powershell扩展$ args数组,然后将其传递给内部,将其作为N个元素而不是单个数组传递。我相信你可以使用splatting运算符(*字符)在Ruby中执行此操作,我很确定PowerShell可以做到这一点,但我不记得如何。

There isn't a good solution to this problem in PowerSHell V1. In V2 we added splatting (though for various reasons, we use @ instead of * for this purpose). Here's what it looks like:

PowerSHell V1中没有很好的解决方案。在V2中我们添加了splatting(虽然由于各种原因,我们使用@而不是*来实现此目的)。这是它的样子:

PS (STA-ISS) (2) > function foo ($x,$y,$z) { "x:$x y:$y z:$z" }

PS(STA-ISS)(2)> function foo($ x,$ y,$ z){“x:$ x y:$ y z:$ z”}

PS (STA-ISS) (3) > $a = 1,2,3

PS(STA-ISS)(3)> $ a = 1,2,3

PS (STA-ISS) (4) > foo $a # passed as single arg

PS(STA-ISS)(4)> foo $ a#作为单个arg传递

x:1 2 3 y: z:

x:1 2 3 y:z:

PS (STA-ISS) (5) > foo @a # splatted

PS(STA-ISS)(5)> foo @a #splatted

x:1 y:2 z:3

Well, there may be a better way, but see if this works:

好吧,可能有更好的方法,但看看这是否有效:

inner --flag [string]::Join(" ", $args)

#3

Building on @EBGreen's idea, and a related question I noticed in the sidebar, a possible solution is this:

基于@ EBGreen的想法以及我在侧边栏中注意到的相关问题,可能的解决方案是:

function outer
{
    invoke-expression "inner --flag $($args -join ' ')"
}

Note: This example makes use of the Powershell 2.0 CTP's new -join operator.

注意:此示例使用Powershell 2.0 CTP的新-join运算符。

However, I'd still like to find a better method, since this feels like a hack and is horrible security-wise.

但是,我仍然希望找到一个更好的方法,因为这感觉就像一个黑客,并且在安全方面是可怕的。

    .SYNOPSIS
    Asks a question and waits for user's answer

    .EXAMPLE
    Usage with shortcuts and without ReturnValue
    Invoke-Question -Question "What would you like" -Answers "&Eggs", "&Toasts", "&Steak"

    Shows the quesiton and waits for input. Let's assume user input is 'S', the return value would be 2 (index of "&Steak")

    .EXAMPLE
    Usage without shortcuts and with ReturnValue
    Invoke-Question -Question "What would you like" -Answers "Eggs", "Toasts", "Steak" -ReturnValue

    Shows the quesiton and waits for input. The answers are prefixed with numbers 1, 2 and 3 as shortcuts.
    Let's assume user input is 2, the return value would be "Toasts" (prefixed numbers are "index + 1")

    .EXAMPLE
    Usage from pipeline with default value
    @("Eggs", "Toasts", "Steak") | Invoke-Question -Question "What would you like" -ReturnValue -Default 2

    Shows the quesiton and waits for input. The answers are taken from pipeline and prefixed with numbers 1, 2 and 3 as shortcuts.
    Steak is marked as default. If user simply continues without a choice, Steak is chosen for her.
    However, let's assume user input is 1, the return value would be "Eggs" (prefixed numbers are "index + 1")
