| | Books on Powershell with .net framework All I am not looking for books for syntax. I know powershell works with .net . There are so many classes in .net and i m looking for a book that is PURELY powershell using the classes of .net . I am looking for book that talks "deeply" using .net classes with examples towards powershell. |

| | Re: Books on Powershell with .net framework IMHO you need to develop the skills (which I'm sure you already have) needed to interact with .NET classes. Spend some time on MSDN and try to understand how this classes and its methods/properties can be used in you scripts, After all, PowerShell's underlying layer is .NET. For instance, use the $var = new-object system.something.something if it doesn't return errors check its members $var | gm You can also use this in the console [system.something.something] if it doesn't return error check its static members [system.something.something] | gm -static If it has a method called "DoIT" you can access it [system.something.something]:  oIT(parametrs)Check its parameters in the definition column to find out what parameters it takes. Personally, I like the self investigation process, it is much more satisfying. Hope that helps  Shay http://scriptolog.blogspot.com Quote: > All > > I am not looking for books for syntax.

| | Re: Books on Powershell with .net framework Also take a look at Richard Siddaway's Weblog, the last two posts (and maybe the sequential ones) deals with how to .NET classes in PowerShell and offer some insights.
