Hello,
Can someone please help me with the following question.
I have .NET 4.5 installed
From PowerGUI if I do
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('System.IO.Compression.FileSystem')
[IO.Compression.ZipFile]
Works as expected (i.e. can create zip files)
However if I do the above from the command line, script or PowerShell ISE I receive the following error
Unable to find type [IO.Compression.ZipFile]: make sure that the assembly containing this type is loaded.
At line:2 char:25
+ [IO.Compression.ZipFile] <<<<
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (IO.Compression.ZipFile:String) [], RuntimeException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : TypeNotFound
I assume PowerGUI is loading (or autoloading) I am on PS v2 some thing the other are not,
Thanks in advance
Ernie

Interestingly when I do the following from the PowerGUI editor
cls
Add-Type -path C:WindowsMicrosoft.NetassemblyGAC_MSILSystem.IO.Compression.FileSystemv4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089System.IO.Compression.FileSystem.dll
I receive no errors,
when I do the above from the Powershell prompt or ISE I receive
Add-Type : Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:WindowsMicrosoft.NetassemblyGAC_MSILSystem.IO.Compression.FileSystemv4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089System.IO.Compression.FileSystem.dll' or one of its dependencies. This assem
bly is built by a runtime newer than the currently loaded runtime and cannot be loaded.

Do I need to reinstall PowerShell v2 following the addition of .net 4.5?
Thanks all

Cannot load type from command line or script or ISE but can from PowerGUI script editor
I confirmed it is definately note loading i.e.
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.VisualBasic')
[appdomain]::currentdomain.getassemblies() | select fullname
Shows the new Assembly loaded as one would expect, where as
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('System.IO.Compression.FileSystem)
[appdomain]::currentdomain.getassemblies() | select fullname
Does not show any more assembiles loaded.
But I do now know why, at the end of the say I need to invoke my script from the command line.
As mentioned above if I run my script from within the PowerGUI script editior it runs, i.e. load the Assembly, so I am thinking PowerGUI when started loads an Assembly (or what ever) that helps the above to load.
I would be most grateful if someone could help me out on this odd issue.
Thanks

The answer has got to be here
[reflection.assembly]::LoadFile('C:WindowsMicrosoft.NetassemblyGAC_MSILSystem.IO.Compression.FileSystemv4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089System.IO.Compression.FileSystem.dll')

I am using PS v2, shorly I do need to upgrade to v3, after all it worked when run from within PowerGUI script editor, but that is not good to me as I need to execute the script from the command line
Thanks all in advance

Sorry but the answer si still that you cannot use this with 2.0 and you cannot use it without installing Net 4.5 which will not install on XP or WS2003.
