Steps to reproduce
Code to reproduce error:
function Test-Function {
param(
[Parameter(Mandatory = $true, ValueFromPipeline = $true)]
[string]$InputTst,
[Parameter(Mandatory = $false)]
[switch]$ShowInput
)
if ($ShowInput) {
Write-Host "You wrote: $( $InputTst )"
}
}
function Start-Main {
[CmdletBinding()]
param()
begin {}
process {
$Close = $false
Write-Host "Process block runs."
# Test 1 - Does not work.
# $Testing = Read-Host "Please type something: "
# Test 2 - Does not work.
# Test-Function -ShowInput
# Test 3 - Works properly.
# Write-Host "Start Sleep"
# Start-Sleep("10")
}
end {}
clean {
Write-Host "Clean block runs."
Write-Host "Cleaning...."
$Close = $true
Write-Host "Value: $( $Close )"
}
}
try {
Start-Main
}
finally {
Write-Host "Finally block runs."
Write-Host "Finally...."
$Close = 8
Write-Host "Value: $( $Close )"
}Test 1
Uncomment the "Test 1" part of the process. Run the code. Ctrl+C when prompted for function parameter input. Sometimes, none of the "Clean" block output even shows at all. I have another personal script where this is the case. Other times, only the first Write-Host is run. However, in every case, the full "Clean Block" does not run. This seems to occur whenever Ctrl+C is used and the user is prompted for input.
Test 2
Comment the "Test 1" and uncomment the "Test 2" part of the process. Run the code. Ctrl+C when prompted for user input. Exactly the same issue as in "Test 1".
I questioned the Microsoft documentation that states:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_functions_advanced_methods?view=powershell-7.4
Test 3
Comment the "Test 2" and uncomment the "Test 3" part of the process. Run the code. Ctrl+C when the program is sleeping. The output is correct. It seems that Microsoft's documentation is in general correct, but fails specifically when terminated from a user input. I hope that this can be fixed, so that I can properly use the clean block.
