I have a powershell script that calls an executable to do some data crunching and the script needs to retrieve the results from by the executable file. Wondering what options I have on plate for this inter process communication

  • Can I have the executable file directly return a string array or an object (I don’t think this is possible)?
  • Volatile variable that the exe file sets and the powershell script reads from?
  • Spawn a temporary .Net remoting server within the executable and have the powershell ping that server to get the results

    You could just spit out the results from the EXE to stdout in XML or CSV format and have PowerShell slurp it up with either a cast to [xml] or ConvertFrom-Csv.
