    Package PowerShell script in PowerShell Studio 2012

    Post by bjorn80 »

    Hi

    I have a working Powershell Tool that i created in PowerShell Sudio 2012 for working with SharePoint.
    If i choose to export the program to PowerShell and run the ps1 file on my sharePoint servers everything works fine.

    However, when i try the fancy Package button to create an .exe file of my program, certain functions no longer work. An example of this being openfiledialogue, savefiledialogue. Nothing happens.

    What do i have to consider when creating an exe-file through PowerShell studio?

    Anyone else experienced this?

    Where are you getting these functions? If they are in your profile then you will need to load them explicitly in a package.

    Certain controls require STA mode. Make sure you package your GUI scripts using this option.

    Hi thanks for replies!
    The "Sta mode" is enabled allready.

    So when i go ahead and create the exe package, my program goes to not responding then i have to force it to close.

    All the code i am using is withing the script.
    This is strange.

    Duh... :shock:

    Ok i put on STA mode in the package menu, then it worked :D
    I thought i was only needed to be enabled on the standard "Home" tab..
    Thanks!
