# Known Issues
|
|
|
|
## SecureString
|
|
|
|
The `SecureString` class is *not* the well-known C# `SecureString`, as the
|
|
library is not available in .NET Core. However, PowerShell continues to use the
|
|
type for two main reasons: FullCLR compatibility, and as a specially-treated
|
|
type (that is, behavior is dependent on the type being `SecureString`). Instead,
|
|
the `SecureString` is Mono's completely not secure whatsoever, but open-source
|
|
and "compatible" stub that acts just like a plaintext `StringBuilder`. **It has
|
|
no encryption.**
|
|
|
|
Additionally `ReadLineSafe` is not implemented, meaning `Get-Credential` fails
|
|
with `PlatformNotSupportedException`.
|
|
|
|
## `ControlPanelItemCommand.cs`
|
|
|
|
The file `monad/src/commands/management/ControlPanelItemCommand.cs` has been removed
|
|
temporarily from `Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.Management` because we
|
|
cannot resolve `[Shell32.ShellFolderItem]` for FullCLR builds. This must be
|
|
fixed ASAP.
|
|
|
|
## `GetComputerInfoCommand.cs`
|
|
|
|
The file
|
|
`src\Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.Management\commands\management\GetComputerInfoCommand.cs`
|
|
is not currently compiled because it needs resources.
|
|
|
|
## Jobs
|
|
|
|
The PowerShell jobs fail, see [#1010][].

|
|
## xUnit
|
|
|
|
The xUnit tests can only be run on Linux.
|
|
|
|
## Console Output
|
|
|
|
Performance issues have been seen in some scenarios, such as nested SSH
|
|
sessions. We believe this is likely an issue with `Console.ReadKey()` and are
|
|
investigating.
|
|
|
|
## Non-interactive console bugs
|
|
|
|
The `ConsoleHost` is buggy when running under an environment without a proper
|
|
TTY. This is due to exceptions thrown in the `RawUI` class from `System.Console`
|
|
that are silenced in the formatting subsystem. See issue [#984][].

|
|
|
|
## Sessions
|
|
|
|
PowerShell sessions do not work because of remoting requirements, so
|
|
`New-PSSession` etc. crash.
|
|
|
|
## Aliases
|
|
|
|
The aliases that conflict with native Linux / OS X commands are removed. This is
|
|
an open discussion in issue [#929][]. See commit 7d9f43966 for their removal,
|
|
and 3582bb421 for the merge.

## Unavailable cmdlets
|
|
|
|
This project includes the CoreCLR versions of the `Commands.Management`,
|
|
`Commands.Utility`, `Security`, and `PSDiagnostics` modules.
|
|
|
|
The `Archive`, `Diagnostics`, `PSGet`, and `Host` modules are not yet included.
|
|
|
|
The `WSMan.Management` module cannot be included unless the
|
|
`Management.Infrastructure.Native` library is ported.
|
|
|
|
The CoreCLR version of the `Commands.Utility` module does not contain the
|
|
following cmdlets that exist in the FullCLR version:
|
|
|
|
- ConvertFrom-String
|
|
- ConvertTo-Html
|
|
- Export-PSSession
|
|
- Get-TraceSource
|
|
