Trying to get the name of my running EXE

[MarkMelanson]

I can't seem to get the name of my compiled script. Does this look right?

Code: Select all

function Get-ScriptName
{
	if ($HostInvocation -ne $null)
	{
		$ScriptName = $HostInvocation.MyCommand.Name
	}
	else
	{
		$ScriptName = $script:MyInvocation.MyCommand.Name
	}
}

Code: Select all

#Sample function that provides the location of the script
function Get-ScriptDirectory{
<#
	.SYNOPSIS
		Get-ScriptDirectory returns the proper location of the script.

	.OUTPUTS
		System.String
	
	.NOTES
		Returns the correct path within a packaged executable.
#>
	[OutputType([string])]
	param ()
	if($hostinvocation){
		Split-Path $hostinvocation.MyCommand.path
	}else{
		Split-Path $script:MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path
	}
}

#Sample variable that provides the location of the script
$ScriptDirectory = Get-ScriptDirectory

In an EXE this is the name of the EXE:

$MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path
