Jeffrey Hicks follows up on a prior post:
Last week I shared a little nugget about making PowerShell life easier by using the built-in variable, $PSDefaultParameterValues. This is a special hashtable where you can define default parameter values for any PowerShell command. This means any PowerShell script or function that has defined parameters AND uses [cmdletbinding()]. If you have a simple function that only uses a Param() block, $PSDefaultParameterValues won’t work for that function. I recommend that all PowerShell functions use [cmdletbinding()] so hopefully, this won’t be an issue. Since I received some positive feedback and a few questions on the previous post, I thought a quick follow-up might be in order.
Read on for additional useful information regarding $PSDefaultParameterValues.
