ARM 0.9.7 :: Get-AzureRemoteDesktopFile missing -Launch parameter

[pcgeek86]

Problem

In the Azure Service Management (ASM) PowerShell module, the Get-AzureRemoteDesktopFile command had two parameter sets:

• Download the RDP file onto the local filesystem
• Invoke the RDP file directly (-Launch switch parameter)

The same command in the Azure Resource Manager (ARM) PowerShell module no longer offers the -Launch parameter.

Expected Result

The Get-AzureRemoteDesktopFile command should include the -Launch parameter, on its own, separate parameter set.

@DeepakRajendranMsft Can you take a look at this?

added the launch option in this PR #806

Thanks,

@DeepakRajendranMsft Thank you -- I checked out the PR and the parameter sets look good.

However, I'm curious about the implementation of the mstsc.exe invocation. Is there a reason that you're wrapping the invocation inside a batch file? Isn't that going to leave a bunch of .bat files on the user's filesystem?

Closing issue report, as parameter has been reimplemented.
