In Powershell I'm reading in a text file. I'm then doing a Foreach-Object over the text file and am only interested in the lines that do NOT contain strings that are in $arrayOfStringsNotInterestedIn
Does anybody know the syntax for this?
Get-Content $filename | Foreach-Object {$_}

You can probably use -notmatch or -notlike in conjunction with each of the strings in your array.
From Jason Navarrete -
You can use the -nomatch operator to get the lines that don't have the characters you are interested in.
Get-Content $FileName | foreach-object { if ($_ -nomatch $arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn) { $) }jms : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc137764.aspxOwenP : Has anyone even tried this? When I try it the syntax is incorrect and it returns every line in the file.From Mark Schill -
If $arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn is an [array] you should use -notcontains:
Get-Content $FileName | foreach-object { ` if ($arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn -notcontains $_) { $) }or better (IMO)
Get-Content $FileName | where { $arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn -notcontains $_}From Chris Bilson -
To exclude the lines that contain any of the strings in $arrayOfStringsNotInterestedIn, you should use:
(Get-Content $FileName) -notmatch [String]::Join('|',$arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn)The code proposed by Chris only works if $arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn contains the full lines you want to exclude.
