Hello

I want to know if it is possible to create a cmdlet in any language other than C# or VB.
 
I specifically want to know if it is possible to develop a new cmdlet in powershell itself?

Thanks
Chris

In PowerShell v2 you can create advanced functions (formerly known as Script Cmdlets). The syntax C# like. Check these help files (in v2) for more information:

PS > help about_functions*

Thanks Shay, I will look into these functions..

All the cmdlets which come with PS are C# based implementations. Am I right in saying this? That's what I see when I look on internet for cmdlet development and on MSDN

Yes, all the cmdlets that come with the core PowerShell installation are in C#. Other teams may have written them in VB.NET, and an end-user wouldn't notice the difference.

But like Shay says, some of these can be v1 and/or v2 functions.
