Stop PoSH script execution

Post by **rbarbour** » Thu Feb 14, 2008 2:46 am

One of the things I really like about the VBScript "run" command is the ability to stop the script when one sees it isn't working as expected. This feature seems to be missing from the PowerShell script "run" environment. When I choose to "run" a PowerShell script, PrimalScript Ent 2007 simply goes unresponsive. I cannot change tabs, open menus or anything. I must wait for the script to finish running before I can return to the editor.

Please add the ability to stop PowerShell scripts from running inside the internal shell environment.

We'd love to. The PowerShell API unfortunately has no API for doing that.
We are investigating options though.

I agree - this would be really nice to have. Rather than having to end the task - just have it gracefully stop the process or sub-process.
