Hello, I created a powershell object via .net to invoke commands. When I invoke normal commands like 'Get-Process' I had no problems:
ps.AddCommand("Get-Process").AddParameter(...).Invoke()
but I'm not able to invoke a .net method with the syntax "[namespace.class]::method", just to make an example to invoke [System.IO.File]::Exists("c:\boo.txt").
I tried with
ps.AddCommand("[System.IO.File]::Exists(\"c:\\boo.txt\")").Invoke()
ps.AddCommand("[System.IO.File]::Exists").AddArgument("c:\\boo.txt").Invoke()
and some others. It always throws an exception which says that the command specified is not recognized.
There is a way to invoke that type of command? Thanks
