Steps to reproduce
When I try to get help for PlatyPS cmdlet parameters (like New-CommandInfo -CommandInfo
and press ALT+h) it throws and error.
Repro:
Update-Help -Module Microsoft.PowerShell.PlatyPS # make sure not to use the autogenerated help
New-CommandHelp -CommandInfo # press ALT+h when cursor is at the end of -CommandInfo parameter to trigger ShowParameterHelp function
I think it can be related to #801 (if the PlatyPS help is generated with PlatyPS itself) since PSReadline expects a default value and it is typically set to None if it is not provided. https://github.com/PowerShell/PSReadLine/blob/ceaad10f3d49df1b62957cf282f15b5a2fb2017f/PSReadLine/DynamicHelp.cs#L238C14-L238C226
Expected behavior
The focused parameter help should be shown for the parameter
Actual behavior
Oops, something went wrong.
