PowerShell - Find-PInvoke.ps1
I had a need to find all PInvokes in an assembly. At first I thought about searching the source code since I had it but ran into various problems:
- Commented out PInvokes
- DLL names specified via constants
[Updated: 11-02-2009] I decided to go with the "reflection only load" approach to extract the PInvoke (DllImport) information. The script file has been updated to reflect (pun intended) this new and better approach. In fact, more data is gathered for each PInvoke including all of the values for the associated DllImportAttribute. Now to see if I can get this included in the next version of PSCX. It seems that the reflection only load is sensitive to assembly load failures. Once an assembly fails to load you pretty much have to start a new PowerShell session to try again. I'll keep looking into this. For what appears to be a really neat capability (ReflectionOnlyLoad) it has some unfortunate short-comings.
Here is some sample output when run on the PSCX snapin dlls.
