The ManagementEntity attribute indicates that a class provides management information exposed through a WMI provider.

Note: the WMI .NET libraries are now considered in final state, and no further development, enhancements, or updates will be available for non-security related issues affecting these libraries. The MI APIs should be used for all new development.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the ManagementEntity attribute to mark a class.

// Use the ManagementEntity attribute on the class to specify that this // class contains management information that is available from
// provider.

    [ManagementEntity(Name = "MortgageCalc")]
    public class MortgageCalcWMIProvider
    {
    }

Remarks

The class marked by this attribute must be public.

Constructors

ManagementEntityAttribute()

Initializes a new instance of the ManagementEntityAttribute class. This is the parameterless constructor.

Properties

External	Gets or sets a value that specifies whether the class represents a WMI class in a provider implemented external to the current assembly.
Name	Gets or sets the name of the WMI class.
Singleton	Specifies whether the associated class represents a singleton WMI class.
TypeId	When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute)

Methods

Equals(Object)	Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
GetHashCode()	Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
IsDefaultAttribute()	When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute)
Match(Object)	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)

Explicit Interface Implementations

_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)	Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)	Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32)	Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr)	Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute)
