Here is a quick and dirty function I wrote after getting PO’d at having to look up documentation for constructors:<\/p>\n
NOTE: Jim Truher thinks long typenames are useful so I added a switch (-FullName) so you could get them if you want them.<\/p>\n
function get-Constructor ([type]$type, [Switch]$FullName)
{
foreach ($c in $type.GetConstructors())
{
$type.Name + “(“
foreach ($p in $c.GetParameters())
{
if ($fullName)
{
“`t{0} {1},” -f $p.ParameterType.FullName, $p.Name
}else
{
“`t{0} {1},” -f $p.ParameterType.Name, $p.Name
}
}
“)”
}
}<\/p>\n
