Hello,

I was just wondering how try-catch works in powershell. Let's take the code below:




What I want to do, is that if there is no activesync device, no error message gets shown in powershell. Is this correct way or do I have to change something?

This seems more complex than I thought, no answer yet. Gotta find time to read more documentation some day.

Here is some great example code, oh wait, I'm not allowed to post links cuz I'm a very bad person!

google "Hey, Scripting Guy! How Can I Use Try/Catch/Finally in Windows PowerShell?"

this doesn't really help. If answer to everything is google, they might as well shut down this subforum. I have build try/catch, but I still get error messages printed out.

I've never used this language, but it appears you need to declare what kind of exception you want to catch, ex.:

Try
{
// Do Stuff
}
Catch [System.Management.Automation.PSArgumentException]
{

]
Catch [system.exception]
{

}

actually it does help. if you took the 20 seconds to actually google his search term he gave you it would lead you to a tech blog which tells you that you need to include catch cases within your catch line, such as `system.exception`. the layout is much like schwag posted and is pretty much common sense if you programed in any other language which uses try catch final based error handling.

if powershell is anything like the other languages you should be able to do this



next time take the time to read and follow the post when someone decides to help you rather than trying to be foon fed. also posting any link outside of the jsp domain is now a suspendable offence which is loosly moderated to everyone but a select few people who the mods seem to hate. so deal with it.
