Parameters don't work with PowerShell v2

[ALuckyGuy]

Try the following script:

1..2|start-rsjob -Name {$_} -ScriptBlock {
param($parm)
        new-object psobject -Property @{
            Result=($parm)
        }
}            
Get-RSjob | Receive-RSJob

With v3 & later, produces the following:

 Result
 ------
      1
      2

With v2 (run with PowerShell -version 2), the output is blank.

 Result
 ------

This problem seems to be with Start-RSJob and how PowerShell v2 deals with references to the count property on $null parameters: $null.count returns 0 in v3 and later but in v2 it returns nothing.

So, in Start-RSJob.ps1 if you change the two references to $ArgumentList.count to ($ArgumentList) -and $ArgumentList.count, the example I gave in the OP works in v2 and later:

    $SBParamCount = @(GetParamVariable -ScriptBlock $ScriptBlock).Count
    If ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('InputObject')) {
        If ($ArgumentList.Count -gt 0) {
            $SBParamCount++
        } Else {
            $SBParamCount--
        }
    }
    If ($ArgumentList.Count -ne $SBParamCount -AND $IsPipeline) {
        Write-Verbose 'Will use $_ in Param() Block'
        $Script:Add_ = $True
    } Else {
        $Script:Add_ = $False
    }

to:

    $SBParamCount = @(GetParamVariable -ScriptBlock $ScriptBlock).Count
    If ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('InputObject')) {
        If ( ($ArgumentList) -and $ArgumentList.count -gt 0) {
            $SBParamCount++
        } Else {
            $SBParamCount--
        }
    }
    If ( ($ArgumentList) -and $ArgumentList.count -ne $SBParamCount -AND $IsPipeline) {
        Write-Verbose 'Will use $_ in Param() Block'
        $Script:Add_ = $True
    } Else {
        $Script:Add_ = $False
    }

Great! I appreciate the reports that you have been providing. It definitely helps to make this module better for everyone!

This one appears to break the following attempt with a single item:

1|Start-RSJob -ScriptBlock {$_}

In which there appears to be no data being received.

Made some adjustments and it appears to be working now with the new version that I am working on.

This one should be fixed in the latest release

This looks good for my tests as well. Closing it.
