How to View Available Programs on a Configuration Manager Client

Applies To: System Center Configuration Manager 2007, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R3, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 SP1, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 SP2

In Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007, you view the available programs on a Configuration Manager 2007 client by using the resource manager (UIResourceMgrClass) object GetAvailableApplication method to get a Programs collection.

To view the available programs on a Configuration Manager client

  1. Get the Configuration Manager client resource manager object (UIResourceMgrClass).

  2. From the UIResourceMgrClass object, call GetAvailableApplications to get a Programs collection of available programs.

  3. Loop through the Programs collection to display each Program.

Example

The following example method displays a list of available programs.

For information about calling the sample code, see How to Call Configuration Manager COM Automation Objects.

Sub ShowPrograms

    On Error Resume Next

    Dim oUIResource 
    Dim oPrograms 
    Dim oProgram 

    Set oUIResource = CreateObject ("UIResource.UIResourceMgr")

    If oUIResource Is Nothing Then 
        wscript.echo "Could not create Resource Object - quitting"
        Exit Sub
    End If

    Set oPrograms = oUIResource.GetAvailableApplications

    If oPrograms Is Nothing Then
        wscript.echo "Failed to get programs object - quitting"
        Set oUIResource=Nothing
        Exit Sub
    End If

    wscript.echo "There are " & oPrograms.Count & " programs"
    wscript.echo

    For Each oProgram In oPrograms
        WScript.Echo "Program Name: " & oProgram.FullName
        WScript.Echo "  Comments:   " & oProgram.Comments
        WScript.Echo "  Package ID: " & oProgram.PackageId
        WScript.Echo 
    Next 

    Set oProgram=Nothing
    Set oUIResource=Nothing

End Sub
public void ShowPrograms()
{
    try
    {
        UIResourceMgrClass uiResMgr = new UIRESOURCELib.UIResourceMgrClass();
        Programs progs = uiResMgr.GetAvailableApplications();

        Console.WriteLine("There are " + progs.Count + " programs");
        Console.WriteLine();
        
        foreach (ProgramCls prog in progs)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Program Name: " + prog.FullName);
            Console.WriteLine("  Comments: " + prog.Comments);
            Console.WriteLine("  Program ID: " + prog.Id);
            Console.WriteLine("  PackageID: " + prog.PackageId);
        }
    }
    catch (COMException e)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Exception occurred: " + e.Message);
        throw;
    }
}
