I'm working on writing something that will allow you to create distribution groups in Exchange 2010.

The problem I am having is I am passing string arrays to my service for the Members and ManagedBy parameters.

This is how I attempted to make this work:

C#

var members = new MultiValuedProperty<object>();
foreach (string s in group.Members)
     members.Add(s);

cmd.AddParameter("Members", members);

The problem I'm having is it is returning an error because it appears it wants Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.RecipientWithAdUserGroupIdParameter within the MultiValuedProperty.

I'm a little confused because it then looks like the RecipientWithAdUserGroupIdParameter contains an array of RecipientIdParameter:

C#

Error: System.ServiceModel.FaultException: System.Management.Automation.RemoteException: Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'Members'. Cannot convert value "8caf8910-86d0-4d00-a452-8c30c0f62373 cfa01a55-6b35-4e61-bf0e-9050308623c7" to type "Microsoft.Exchange.Data.MultiValuedProperty`1[Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.RecipientWithAdUserGroupIdParameter`1[Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.RecipientIdParameter]]". Error: "Cannot convert the "8caf8910-86d0-4d00-a452-8c30c0f62373" value of type "Deserialized.Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.RecipientIdParameter" to type "Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.RecipientWithAdUserGroupIdParameter`1[Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.RecipientIdParameter]"." at System.Management.Automation.PowerShell.CoreInvoke[TOutput](IEnumerable input, PSDataCollection`1 output, PSInvocationSettings settings) at System.Management.Automation.PowerShell.Invoke(IEnumerable input, PSInvocationSettings settings) at System.Management.Automation.PowerShell.Invoke() at CloudPanel.Exchange.ExchPs.RunPowershell(PSCommand pscmd, String script) at CloudPanel.Exchange.ExchPs.RunPowershell(PSCommand pscmd, String script) at CloudPanel.Exchange.ExchPs.New_DistributionGroup(DistributionGroup group, String companydn)

Anyone have an idea what I can do to accomplish this? There are some stuff out on the web about using ICollection when reading from Exchange but i'm trying to send commands to exchange.

RecipientIdParameter is the baseclass for RecipientWithAdUserGroupIdParameter so I think by passing the RecipientWithAdUserGroupIdParameter with the MultiValuedProperty might solve this error.

Note:I havent used this before.

The problem is RecipientWithAdUserGroupIdParameter is another array.

so it has to be done like this:

C#

var members = new MultiValuedProperty<RecipientWithAdUserGroupIdParameter<RecipientIdParameter>>();

But then I can't add to the RecipientWithAdUserGroupIdParameter because it doesn't have that method.

C#

new RecipientWithAdUserGroupIdParameter<RecipientIdParameter>().

Only has these methods:
Equals
GetHashCode
GetObjects<>
GetType
ToString
