powershell - How do I conditionally add a class with Add-Type -TypeDefinition if it isn't added already? -


consider following powershell snippet:

$csharpstring = @" using system;  public sealed class myclass {     public myclass() { }     public override string tostring() {         return "this class. there many others " +             "like it, 1 mine.";     } } "@ add-type -typedefinition $csharpstring; $myobject = new-object myclass write-host $myobject.tostring();

if run more once in same appdomain (e.g. run script twice in powershell.exe or powershell_ise.exe) following error:

add-type : cannot add type. type name 'myclass' exists. @ line:13 char:1 + add-type -typedefinition $csharpstring; + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~     + categoryinfo          : invalidoperation: (myclass:string) [add-type],  exception     + fullyqualifiederrorid :  type_already_exists,microsoft.powershell.commands.addtypecommand

how wrap call add-type -typedefinition called once?

this technique works me:

if (-not ([system.management.automation.pstypename]'myclass').type) {     add-type -typedefinition 'public class myclass { }' }
  • the type name can enclosed in quotes 'myclass', square brackets [myclass], or both '[myclass]' (v3+ only).
  • the type name lookup not case-sensitive.
  • you must use full name of type, unless part of system namespace (e.g. [system.datetime] can looked via 'datetime', [system.reflection.assembly] cannot looked via 'assembly').
  • i've tested in win8.1; powershell v2, v3, v4.

internally, pstypename class calls languageprimitives.convertstringtotype() method handles heavy lifting. caches lookup string when successful, additional lookups faster.

i have not confirmed whether or not exceptions thrown internally mentioned x0n , justin d.

keyboard - C++ GetAsyncKeyState alternative -

i using windows.h library's getasynckeystate function define key pushed on keyboard . here program returns int value of pushed key example. #include <iostream> #include <windows.h> using namespace std; int main (){ char i; for(i=8;i<190;i++){ if(getasynckeystate(i)== -32767){ cout<<int (i)<<endl; } } return 0; } but trying make opengl simple game , function appeared slow . there function not need cycle 180 times , if statement . thanks you're trying make opengl game, you're going use glfw. if that's case can away using glfwgetkey() such: if (glfwgetkey(glfw_key_up) == glfw_press) {...} if (glfwgetkey(glfw_key_down) == glfw_press) {...} that method nicely explained in tutorial 6 opengl-tutorial.org . should start first tutorial of beginners tutorials , later intermediate tutorials . if you're going make win32 window can listen wm_keydown or wm_keyup messages , virtua...
