Hello. I think i'm doing this correctly, but I want to create an object and have primalsense show the members of that object.

so i did,
[System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection] $connection = New-Object "System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection" $connectionString

But when i type $connection. nothing shows up. Shouldn't it expand the members of the SqlConnection class?

Yes it should. What's the OS and what framework versions do you have installed?

Please look in your PrimalScript application folder and tell us what size and version PSInfo.dll is.
Please also include the complete PrimalScript version and build number.

We have found an issue that relates to an update to the .NET framework. One of the types prior to the System.Data assembly throws an exception and terminates loading. A fix is included in the next service build.



Explicit declaration of types should not be required if you use New-Object with the full type.

Sorry for the delay

Windows 7 Professional x32
All .NET Versions including 4.0 (Visual Studio is also installed)
PSInfo.dll version is 2.0.379.27495

Pre-upgrade, PrimalScript version was 5.0.637greatbarrier862010-12-06 11:26:17

Update: the new version fixed the issues i was describing.

Question though, should it expand this?

$oShell = New-Object -ComObject WScript.Shell

I only ask because $oShell. does not expand the primalsense box.

Enclose ProgIds in quotes:


$oShell = New-Object -ComObject "WScript.Shell"

Much appreciated Alex. That worked great!
