Powershell to C# - Get-WMIObject

Question

So here's the powershell:

$app = Get-WmiObject -Class SMS_UserApplicationRequest -Namespace root/SMS/site_sitename -
 ComputerName computername | Select-Object User, Application, RequestGUID

$app

It works fine, returns the info with no problem.

Running in c#:

Runspace runspace = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace();
runspace.Open();

PowerShell powerShell = PowerShell.Create();
powerShell.Runspace = runspace;
powerShell.AddScript(script);

Collection<PSObject> results = powerShell.Invoke();

foreach (PSObject result in results)
{
    MessageBox.Show(result.ToString());
}

runspace.Close();

This shows the baseObject, which is the UserApplicationRequest, but how do I access the data in the request? (That was the Select-Object User, Application, RequestGUID)

Answer 1

If you are on PowerShell V3 (System.Management.Automation.dll 3.0), don't forget that it is now sitting on the DLR. That means that PSObject can be used via the dynamic keyword in C# e.g.:

foreach (dynamic result in results)
{
    var msg = String.Format{"User: {0}, Application: {1}, RequestGUID: {2}", 
                            result.User, result.Application, result.RequestGUID);
    MessageBox.Show(msg);
}
