Importing RubrikSecurityCloud does not return you to the original working directory

[fourpastmidnight]

When importing the RubrikSecurityCloud module, the module does not return you to the original working directory as is expected:

#
# Load Core DLL:
#
try {
    # Record the user's current working directory so that we can return to it when we 
    # are done loading the module
    $currentPath = Get-Location

    # Other code below ....
}
catch {
    Write-Error "Unable to load Rubrik Security Cloud Module: $_"
}
finally {
    # Ensure the working directory has been set back to the original when the script exits
    Set-Location $currentPath
}

The problem with this code is that $currentPath has a different scope inside the try block than the same variable inside the finally block, and therefore, when Set-Location $currentPath is run inside the finally block, $currentPath eveluates to $null and therefore, the default value for the -Path parameter of Set-Location is used, which is ., or, the current working directory, which in this case, effectively does nothing.

Instead, you need to set the $currentPath variable outside the try block.

#
# Load Core DLL:
#

# Record the user's current working directory so that we can return to it when we 
# are done loading the module
$currentPath = Get-Location
try {
    # Other code below ....
}
catch {
    Write-Error "Unable to load Rubrik Security Cloud Module: $_"
}
finally {
    # Ensure the working directory has been set back to the original when the script exits
    Set-Location $currentPath
}

Now this will properly reset the current working directory.

I tested this change in our own deployment environment and this change resolved the issue we encountered during our deployment.
