Error using Parameters in PSake 4.1.0

[Danny Douglass]

Hi All,

I'm trying to utilize the parameter feature introduced in the v4 release, but I'm running into an error.  I can only seem to get properties to work...and I have tried passing the parameters using single quotes and double quotes around both.  I used this post as an example:
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/psake-users/UKX3tBzOASE 

Any help here is greatly appreciated - I can also zip up the files if someone wants to try and run them locally.

Executing Call:

 

PowerShell .\_nuget\packages\psake.4.1.0\tools\psake.ps1 sampleScript.ps1 -parameters @{environmentNumber=%TestEnvironmentNumber%}

sampleScript.ps1 contents:

parameters {

    $environmentNumber = $null

}

Task default -depends Print-Properties

Task Print-Properties {

    

    Assert($environmentNumber -ne $null) "environmentNumber should not be null"

     Write-Host "Environment Number: $environmentNumber"}

Execution Output:

c:\dev\HgSilver\_Provision\NebTestEnvironment>PowerShell .\_nuget\packages\psake.4.1.0\tools\psake.ps1 sampleScript.ps1 -parameters @{environmentNumber=0} 

psake version 4.1.0
