Trap-with-continue

trap with continue

continue in a trap block tells PowerShell to resume after the statement that caused the error. But this is the statement in the scope where the trap is defined, not the statement that actually failed. In other words, PowerShell resumes where the trap is, not where an error is.

Scripts

• test1.trap.same.scope.ps1 - trap in the same scope resumes in the same scope.
• test2.trap.parent.scope.ps1 - trap in the parent scope resumes in the parent scope.
