I’m trying to get this simple PowerShell script working, but I think something is fundamentally wrong. 😉
ls | ForEach { "C:\Working\tools\custom-tool.exe" $_ } I basically want to get files in a directory, and pass them one by one as arguments to the custom tool.
As each object comes down the pipeline the tool will be run against it. Putting quotes around the command string causes it to be… a string! The local variable ‘$_’ it then likely doesn’t know what to do with so pukes with an error.
