Starting a process in PowerShell with dynamic command-line parameters

Starting a command-line process from PowerShell is very easy. A simple java -jar helloworld.jar works just fine. However when I’m starting nodes in my Selenium Grid I need to dynamically create a different number of parameters. The following code will fail because the various strings wont be correctly mapped to the usual argv[] input parameters for the java.exe process:

$arguments = ''
$arguments += ' ' + '-jar xxxx.jar'
$arguments += ' ' + '-browser'
$arguments += ' ' + 'browserName=firefox,version=3.6,platform=WINDOWS'
$arguments += ' ' + '-browser'
$arguments += ' ' + 'browserName=internet explorer,version=10,platform=WINDOWS'
java $arguments

Instead, just create an array of command-line arguments like this (assume that $Capabilities is an array of hash tables)

        $arguments = @()
        $arguments += '-jar'
        $arguments += $Jar
        $arguments += '-role'
        $arguments += 'node'
        $arguments += '-port'
        $arguments += 5555
        $arguments += '-hub'
        $arguments += '"' + 'http://127.0.0.1:4444/grid/register' + '"'

        foreach ($hashTable in $Capabilities)
        {
            $arguments += '-browser'
            $strCaps = ($hashTable.GetEnumerator() | ForEach-Object { '$($_.Key)=$($_.Value)' }) -join ','
            $strCaps = '"' + $strCaps + '"'
            $arguments += $strCaps
        }
        java $arguments
