CIM_RemoveDirectoryAction class

The CIM_RemoveDirectoryAction class removes directories for software elements.

Important

The DMTF (Distributed Management Task Force) CIM (Common Information Model) classes are the parent classes upon which WMI classes are built. WMI currently supports only the CIM 2.x version schemas.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of its inherited properties. Properties are listed in alphabetic order, not MOF order.

Qualifiers: maxlen (64)

Short textual description of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_Action.

Description

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Description of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_Action.

Direction

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Indicates whether a particular CIM_Action object is part of a sequence of actions to transition the current software element to its next state, such as "Install", or to remove the current software element, such as "Uninstall".

This property is inherited from CIM_Action.

Install (0)

Uninstall (1)

DirectoryName

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: maxlen (1024)

Name of the directory to which the action applies.

This property is inherited from CIM_DirectoryAction.

MustBeEmpty

Data type: boolean

Access type: Read-only

If TRUE, the directory must be empty to be removed.

Name

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Propagated ("CIM_SoftwareElement.Name"), CIM_key, maxlen (256)

Identifies the software element.

This property is inherited from CIM_Action.

SoftwareElementID

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Propagated ("CIM_SoftwareElement.SoftwareElementID"), CIM_key, maxlen (256)

Identifier for the software element.

This property is inherited from CIM_Action.

SoftwareElementState

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Propagated ("CIM_SoftwareElement.SoftwareElementState"), CIM_key

State of a software element.

This property is inherited from CIM_Action.

Deployable (0)

Describes the details necessary for successful distribution and the details (conditions and actions) required to create a software element in the installable state (that is, the next state).

Installable (1)

Describes the details necessary for successful installation and the details (conditions and actions) required to create a software element in the executable state (that is, the next state).

Executable (2)

Describes the details necessary for successful execution and the details (conditions and actions) required to create a software element in the running state (that is, the next state).

Running (3)

Describes the details necessary to monitor and operate on a start element.

TargetOperatingSystem

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Propagated ("CIM_SoftwareElement.TargetOperatingSystem"), CIM_key, Mappingstrings ("MIF.DMTF|Software Component Information|002.5")

Target operating system of the owning software element.

This property is inherited from CIM_Action.
