This is the folder where project XML files go, notably:

• Format XML
• Type Extension XML

External help files should not be placed in this folder!

There should be only one format file and one type extension file per project, as importing them has a notable impact on import times.

• The Format XML should be named þnameþ.Format.ps1xml
• The Type Extension XML should be named þnameþ.Types.ps1xml

This function will take an input object and generate format xml for an auto-sized table.

It provides a simple way to get started with formats.

C# Warning!
This section is only interest if you're using C# together with PowerShell.

This function generates type extension XML that allows PowerShell to convert types written in C# to be written to file and restored from it without being 'Deserialized'. Also works for jobs or remoting, if both sides have the PSFramework module and type extension loaded.

In order for a class to be eligible for this, it needs to conform to the following rules:

• Have the [Serializable] attribute
• Be public
• Have an empty constructor
• Allow all public properties/fields to be set (even if setting it doesn't do anything) without throwing an exception.

non-public properties and fields will be lost in this process!
