Host Sample 05 ============== This sample application shows building a fairly complete interactive console-based host which allows users to run cmdlets and see the output. This sample reads commands from the command line, executes them, and displays the results to the console. The sample user interface classes are built on top of System.Console. For Windows PowerShell information on MSDN, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=178145 Sample Objectives ================= This sample demonstrates the following: 1. Creating your own host interface, host user interface, and host raw user interface classes. 2. Building a console application that uses these host classes to build an interactive PowerShell shell. 3. Creating the $profile variable and loading the four different profiles: * Current user, current host * Current user, all hosts * All users, current host * All users, all hosts 4. Implementing the IHostUISupportsMultipleChoiceSelection interface. 5. Implement the IHostSupportsInteractiveSession interface to support interactive remoting via the Enter-PSSession and Exit-PSSession cmdlets.
