Get-ScriptAnalyzerRule throws exception despite common parameter '-ErrorAction SilentlyContinue' is defined

Open Marc013 opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

When running the command provided in the reproduce an exception is thrown. This is unexpected and undesirable.

It would be great when exceptions could be silenced by specifying common parameter -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue. The documentation of this cmdlet describes <CommonParameters> can be used.

Steps to reproduce

Get-ScriptAnalyzerRule -CustomRulePath C:\someExistingPathWithoutPSSARules\ -RecurseCustomRulePath -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

Expected behavior

#no output

Actual behavior

Get-ScriptAnalyzerRule: Exception of type 'System.Exception' was thrown.

If an unexpected error was thrown then please report the full error details using e.g. $error[0] | Select-Object *
