Hi,
Does anyone know how many parameters or arguments I can pass to a
function?

Thanks,

Just tried 10000 arguments here, which worked fine
(got bored waiting for 100000 to finish , sorry ;-) ....


function HowManyArgs {

$i=0
ForEach ($k in $Args) {$i=$i+1}
$i

}

$expr = "HowManyArgs "
foreach ($m in 1..10000) {$expr = $expr + ($m.ToString()) + ' '}
invoke-expression $expr

$args is an array object, I don't think there's a limit unless there's a
limit to the array object.

Well the max index is 2GB - 1. But even with 10000 args tested (and
verified), I'd say there is no "practical" limit. :-)

Correct. The only limits are [int32]::MaxValue and the amount of memory you
have on your system.
