Well that was short lived. Turns out no changes are needed in PowerShell 7 to get this working. Add `-CompilerOptions '-debug:embedded'` to the Add-Type call and ensure you have these options set in the VSCode launch config "attachDotnetDebugger": true, "createTemporaryIntegratedConsole": true

Ever wanted to debug C# code compiled through Add-Type in PowerShell? The function Add-DebuggableType at gist.github.com/jborean93/bc... can be used in PowerShell 7 to do just that. Going to try and send a PR through so that the builtin Add-Type can do the same thing.

New #PowerShell @vscode.dev Extension 2025.2.0 released!

Mostly the usual boring bugfix/infra stuff, but I added one change that lets you run Temporary Consoles under a different PS than your PowerShell extension. Great for 5.1 Testing! Check out the PR in the release notes for details.

Fantastic post, nice use of animations as well to help illustrate what is going on here.
Do you know what bound and unbound script blocks are in PowerShell?

I did not know but they are sometimes talked about in GitHub issues or in the community.

I might be a bit biased as I’ve contributed code here but this is a very well rounded library with some pretty great features. Tom is also ver vigilant in looking at PRs and implementing new features and bugfixes as well! Highly recommend people look at this if you have a need for SSH on .NET.

For anyone interested in making Azure Trusted Signing a good fit for #PowerShell signatures please have a look and add +1 or comments if you think of anything else to github.com/PowerShell/P... so the team can see how important this would be to have.
February 13, 2025 at 1:54 AM
Pushed a new version of my #PowerShell module OpenAuthenticode github.com/jborean93/Po.... It adds support for signing using Azure's Trusted Signing service. I've found it has been pretty easy to setup as an individual to use but a pity pwsh's trust model won't work nicely with it.

New Sixel Module release, now with GIF support 😆

Actually two releases, prerelease where im testing out Audio support with gifs.
Not entirely sure that's staying, but fun to test out.
As Windows Terminal v1.22 is now stable, Sixel should work for all Windows 11 😀
