ResourceLocator object
An object that supplies the path to a resource. You can use a ResourceLocator object instead of a resource URI in Session object operations such as Session.Get, Session.Put, or Session.Enumerate.
This object enables you to:
- Add one or more selectors that identify a particular instance of a resource. This is the same as supplying a key value in the resource URI for a resource that uses keys. For more information, see ResourceLocator.AddSelector. You can do a similar operation using the filter parameter in a call to Session.Enumerate.
- Specify a fragment path and dialect to get only one property of a resource. You can also specify one or all of the elements of an array property by supplying the array index. For more information, see ResourceLocator.FragmentPath.
- Add one or more options that a data source may require to process a request. For more information, see ResourceLocator.AddOption.
For more information, see Querying for Specific Instances of a Resource.

Examples
The following VBScript code example obtains the NumberOfLogicalProcessors and NumberOfCores properties from a specific instance of Win32_Processor.
Option Explicit
Dim strUri
strUri = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/" _
& "wmi/root/cimv2/Win32_Processor"
Const FragmentDialect = _
"https://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xpath-19991116"
Dim WSMan
Set WSMan = CreateObject("WSMan.Automation")
Dim Session
Set Session = WSMan.CreateSession
Dim Locator
Set Locator = WSMan.CreateResourceLocator(strUri)
Locator.AddSelector "DeviceID", "CPU0"
Dim NumberOfCores_XML
Locator.FragmentPath = "NumberOfCores"
Locator.FragmentDialect = FragmentDialect
NumberOfCores_XML = Session.Get(Locator)
DisplayOutput NumberOfCores_XML
Dim NumberOfLogicalProcessors_XML
Locator.FragmentPath = "NumberOfLogicalProcessors"
Locator.FragmentDialect = FragmentDialect
NumberOfLogicalProcessors_XML = Session.Get(Locator)
DisplayOutput NumberOfLogicalProcessors_XML
'****************************************************
' Displays WinRM XML message using built-in XSL
'****************************************************
Sub DisplayOutput( strWinRMXml )
Dim xmlFile, xslFile
Set xmlFile = CreateObject( "MSXml2.DOMDocument.3.0" )
Set xslFile = CreateObject( "MSXml2.DOMDocument.3.0" )
xmlFile.LoadXml( strWinRMXml )
xslFile.Load( "WsmTxt.xsl" )
Wscript.Echo xmlFile.TransformNode( xslFile )
End Sub
