Enabling Strict Mode – SID-500.COM


PowerShell

PowerShell could be very forgiving of errors. For instance, if you happen to name one thing that doesn’t exist, then no error message is displayed. On this quick article I wish to present you easy methods to make PowerShell a bit extra strict with the strict mode.

Think about you’re calling a variable that doesn’t exist. PowerShell will show no errors.

One other instance. Why is it displaying true? $a doesn’t exist.

With strictmode mode, nonetheless, PowerShell will return an error. First we have to allow it.

Set-StrictMode -Model Newest

Now PowerShell will show an error: “The variable ‘$a’ can’t be retrieved as a result of it has not been set.

That was what I wished to point out. Have enjoyable with PowerShell.
