Get-SmallFiles example with PSDefaultValue attribute does not work

[adrimus]

Type of issue

Code doesn't work

Feedback

Under Named Parameters, In the section where you can add PSDefaultValue to provide a brief help string, for example:

function Get-SmallFiles {
  param (
      [PSDefaultValue(Help = '100')]
      $Size = 100
  )
}

If I then execute the function it doesn't do anything, I think it should be:

function Get-SmallFiles  {
  param (
      [PSDefaultValue(Help = '100')]
      $Size = 100
  )
  Get-ChildItem $HOME | Where-Object {
    $_.Length -lt $Size -and !$_.PSIsContainer
  }
}
