PowerShell and SharePoint 2007: Cannot find an overload for "Add" and the argument count: "2" - sharepoint

I am trying to write a PowerShell script to enable a feature on all subwebs of a given site collection and everything was going swimmingly until I tried to get the actual feature to be enabled. I am successful in using the SharePoint API everywhere, but when i get to this:
$activatedFeature = $web.Features.Add($Feature.Id, $true)
I am getting a ridiculous exception that I cant seem to figure out.
System.Management.Automation.MethodException: Cannot find an overload for "Add" and the argument count: "2".
at System.Management.Automation.Adapter.FindBestMethod(String methodName, MethodInformation[] methods, Object[] arguments, Boolean& expandParamsOnBest)

at System.Management.Automation.AssignmentStatementNode.Execute(Array input, Pipe outputPipe, ExecutionContext context)
at System.Management.Automation.StatementListNode.ExecuteStatement(ParseTreeNode statement, Array input, Pipe outputPipe, ArrayList& resultList, ExecutionContext context)
I cant say that this exception makes much sense to me, nor can I find anything helpful from resources here or searching on key terms.
Has anyone experienced something like this before? If so, how do i correct it.

I had written a function to return the SPFeatureDefinition of the feature being activated and apparently it was returning an array of two items. The second item in the array was the SPFeatureDefinition and I was not aware of this. So, after calling that function i did this:
$Feature = $Feature[1]
After this, everything worked fine.

I am getting error when trying to save Checks and Payments record.
The process is when I click on 'Pay Bill/Apply Adjustments' (AP301000) under 'Actions', I am redirected to the Checks and Payments (AP302000) screen. And when I try to save the record, I get the below stack trace.

The coincidence is I have the customization that has a custom field the Display Text 'Invoice Date'. So, the first thing I did was I put the PersistingCheck to nothing in PXDefault attribute.
[PXDefault(PersistingCheck = PXPersistingCheck.Nothing)]
But that still didn't solve the problem.
So, I unpublish the customization and the issue was still there. Then finally I even removed the custom field (NB: The field is nullable) from database to make sure that my customization isn't causing the issue. But that also didn't work.
Upon trying to find DAC fields with the particular display text I find some fields but that doesn't seem to be associated with the graph for those screens.
Thank you.
It looks strange, I don't see any related fields with "Invoice Date" display name, which may cause an issue. I faced similar strange issues due to IIS data caching.
I would recommend do the following:
Restart IIS
Remove temp ASP.NET files which are located somewhere here C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files
Remove temp Customization files
Then to be sure the problem is not in your customization
Rename your custom field from "Invoice Date" to "Invoice Date 1" for example
Publish your customization again
Try your steps again and verify an error message if it still exists - which display name do you see, "Invoice Date" or "Invoice Date 1"?

Can not select value in a combo box in coded UI test using coded UI test builder

I am working on a WPF application which has several custom controls. I am using coded UI test builder to create a script for my application testing. When I run the test, it gives me an exception and the exception occurs at the line shown below.
uIRadComboBoxComboBox.SelectedItem = this.SelectingWeddingParams.UIRadComboBoxComboBoxSelectedItem;
I have tried using mouse clicks and changing the coordinates but that does not work as well.
The code for the function is
region Variable Declarations
WpfCustom uIItemCustom = this.UIIntelliClientWindow.UIItemCustom;
WpfComboBox uIRadComboBoxComboBox = this.UIIntelliClientWindow.UIEventInfoRegionCustom1.UIPleasewaitProgressBar.UIRadComboBoxComboBox;
#endregion
// Click custom control
Mouse.Click(uIItemCustom, new Point(448, 307));
// Select 'Wedding' in 'RadComboBox' combo box
uIRadComboBoxComboBox.SelectedItem = this.SelectingWeddingParams.UIRadComboBoxComboBoxSelectedItem;
The exception is pasted below.

I face the same issue when I try to automate the wpf controls with coded UI.
The best solution I would like to suggest is to use Appium WinAppDriver(If it is possible for you) as it supports the wpf controls as mentioned my Microsoft team.
here is the guide to : How to use WinAppDriver
CodedUI will be deprecated after Visual studio 2019(mentioned by one of the member of microsoft team in a video) although support will be there.
And for the work around I would suggest you to use the Keyboard.Sendkeys() to set the combobox.
for exmaple :-
UITestControl combobox = new UITestControl();
//add properties of combobox
WinEdit textboxOfCombobox = new WinEdit(comboBox);
textboxOfCombobox.SendKeys("value to enter");
// Add code to verify if the combobox has the correct value selected.
This workaround I use personally and it works for me.
I hope this helps.

How to get file stream from the sharepoint file url in dynamic crm plugin?

I have requirement to get file stream of share point file, for the that I have share point file URL.
https://mysite.sharepoint.com/sites/documents/contact/test/Beat01_07262017.pdf
I’m trying to connect to SharePoint Online (using CSOM) from within a plugin in CRM Online . For that to work, I merged the SharePoint Client and Client.Runtime DLL’s with ilmerge.exe into my plugin DLL. But as soon as the following code:
ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext(server);
clientContext.Credentials = new SharePointOnlineCredentials(UserId, Password); // This line throws an below exception:
Request for the permission of type
‘System.Security.Permissions.RegistryPermission, mscorlib,
Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089′
failed.
Is there any way to make it working?
I have checked with SharePoint Integration from CRM Online Workflow/Plugin but not able to get it working
and getting error as below

Find out is property has SET accessor

I am iterating through all class properties and need to find out which properties has only GET accessors and which both GET and SET. I tried to use propertyInfo.GetAccessors() but not sure how to find out from MethodInfo[] returned object what accessors assigned to property. Any ideas?
var type = typeof(Word2Pdf);
foreach (var propertyInfo in type.GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance))
{
MethodInfo[] methodInfos = propertyInfo.GetAccessors();
}
If all you want to know is whether the property can be written to, PropertyInfo.CanWrite is the easiest way to find out.
If you want to get a MethodInfo for the setter for further processing use GetSetMethod. The parameterless overload only get public setters; the one with a boolean argument can also get nonpublic ones.

Casting to types that are know only at Runtime by their string names. C#

I've got a problem here. (C#)
There's a collection in another assembly (I cannot change it) that takes a string as parameter and returns an object.
Like:
object Value = ThatCollection.GetValue("ParameterName");
The problem is, for each parameter string, it returns a DIFFERENT type as object.
What I want is to cast those objects to their respective types, knowing the types only at runtime by their string names.
I need to do some operations with those returned values.
And for that I need to cast them properly in order to access their members and so.
Limitations:
I cannot use "dynamic" since my code needs to be done in an older framework: 3.5 (because of interop issues).
I need to do operations with MANY returned values of different types (no common interfaces nor base classes, except "object", of course)
All I have is a table (containing string values) correlating the parameter names with their returned types.
Yes, I could transform that table into a biiig "switch" statement, not very nice, don't want that.
Any hints??
You want to look into reflection, something like the following should work to cast an object to type T. Set up a simple cast method:
public static T CastToType<T>(object o)
{
return (T)o;
}
Invoke this using reflection:
Type t = Type.GetType(stringName)
MethodInfo castTypeMethod = this.GetType().GetMethod("CastToType").MakeGenericMethod(t);
object castedObject = castTypeMethod .Invoke(null, new object[] { obj });
