Should Write-Host still be avoided?

It's always been recommended to avoid using Write-Host because it outputs only to the console and not to any of the standard output streams. As of PowerShell 5.0, Write-Host is just a wrapper for Write-Information and thus outputs to the standard output streams similar to the other Write-* cmdlets.

Should the use of Write-Host still be flagged as something to be avoided? Is it possible to implement a rule that only flags the use of Write-Host if the computer is running a version of PowerShell earlier than 5.0?

Thanks!

首先检查现有的 analyzer rule，该规则会标记 Write-Host，并查看所链接的 PowerShell 文档中关于 5.0 及更高版本中 Write-Host 行为的说明。确定 analyzer 如何处理不同 PowerShell 版本之间的差异；当 issue 请求的版本感知行为已实现，并由适当的 rule tests 覆盖时，即表示完成。
