Hi everyone,

I've been using pSake for a few weeks now and everything was working
great!
We currently call the builds sucessfully on both desktops and the CI
server like this:

However, for various reasons (I can elaborate if needed), I realised I
needed to invoke pSake like this:

However this approach failed, giving the following error message:

The variable '$script:context' cannot be retrieved because it has not
been set.
At C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Powershell\pSake
\pSake.psm1:24 char:42
+ [system.collections.stack]$script:context <<<<
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (script:context:Token)
[], ParentContainsErrorRecordException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : VariableIsUndefined

I could not find any information on this online, and I have reproduced
it on a few machines.
Note that I get the same error message when running build.ps1 from the
ISE, which would be nice for debugging purposes.

Would anyone have any ideas on what could be the cause of this, and
how to fix it?

Thanks,

Romain

Hi again,

I finally found what was causing the error!
Since Powershell 2.0 came out I usually always start my scripts with:

Set-StrictMode -Version 2

This catches any unset variables, non-existent properties....
It seems that it does not play well with pSake.

Why it took me so long to realize, is that I just found out there is a
difference between

powershell.exe .\build.ps1           >  ignores the strict mode cmdlet
and runs fine
powershell.exex -File build.ps1    >  applies the strict mode cmdlet
and fails to load pSake

For the moment I will simply remove strict mode from my scripts.
Is this something that pSake might handle in the future?

Thanks,

Romain
