CIM_SoftwareElement class (CIMWin32 WMI Providers)

The CIM_SoftwareElement class decomposes a CIM_SoftwareFeature object into a set of individually manageable or deployable parts for a particular platform. A software element's platform is uniquely identified by its underlying hardware architecture and operating system.

As such, to understand the details of how the functionality of a particular software feature is provided on a particular platform, the CIM_SoftwareElement objects referenced by CIM_SoftwareFeatureSoftwareElements associations are organized in disjoint sets based on the TargetOperatingSystem property. A CIM_SoftwareElement object captures the management details of a part or component in one of four states characterized by the SoftwareElementState property.

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.

Members

The CIM_SoftwareElement class has these types of members:

Properties

The CIM_SoftwareElement class has these properties.

BuildNumber

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Maxlen (64), Mappingstrings ("MIF.DMTF|Software Component Information|002.4")

Internal identifier for the compilation of this software element.

Caption

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (64), DisplayName ("Caption")

Short textual description of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

CodeSet

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Maxlen (64)

Code set used by the software element.

Description

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: DisplayName ("Description")

Textual description of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

IdentificationCode

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Maxlen (64), Mappingstrings ("MIF.DMTF|Software Component Information|002.7")

Manufacturer's identifier for the software element, often a stock-keeping unit (SKU) or part number.

InstallDate

Data type: datetime

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|ComponentID|001.5"), DisplayName ("Install Date")

Date and time the object was installed. This property does not need a value to indicate that the object is installed.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

LanguageEdition

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Maxlen (32), Mappingstrings ("MIF.DMTF|Software Component Information|002.6")

Language edition of the software element. The language codes defined in ISO 639 should be used. Where the software element represents multilingual or international versions of a product, the string "multilingual" should be used.

Manufacturer

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Maxlen (256), Mappingstrings ("MIF.DMTF|ComponentID|001.1")

Manufacturer of the software element.

Name

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: key, maxlen (256), override ("Name")

Name used to identify the software element This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

OtherTargetOS

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Maxlen (64), ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_OperatingSystem.OtherTypeDescription")

Manufacturer and operating system type for a software element when the TargetOperatingSystem property has a value of 1 ("Other"). When the TargetOperatingSystem property has a value of 1, this property must have a non-null value. For all other TargetOperatingSystem values, this property is null.

SerialNumber

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Maxlen (64), Mappingstrings ("MIF.DMTF|ComponentID|001.4")

Serial number of the software element.

SoftwareElementID

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: key, maxlen (256)

Identifier for the software element. It is designed to be used in conjunction with other keys to create a unique representation of this CIM_SoftwareElement.

SoftwareElementState

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: key

State of a software element.

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.

Status

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (10), DisplayName ("Status")

Current status of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

Values include the following:

OK ("OK")

Error ("Error")

Degraded ("Degraded")

Unknown ("Unknown")

Pred Fail ("Pred Fail")

Starting ("Starting")

Stopping ("Stopping")

Service ("Service")

Stressed ("Stressed")

NonRecover ("NonRecover")

No Contact ("No Contact")

Lost Comm ("Lost Comm")

TargetOperatingSystem

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: key, Mappingstrings ("MIF.DMTF|Software Component Information|002.5"), ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_OperatingSystem.OSType")

Operating system environment. The value of this property does not ensure binary executability, more information is needed. The operating system version must be specified using the operating system version check. Also needed, is the architecture on which the operating system runs. The combination of these constructs allows the provider to clearly identify the level of operating system required for a particular software element.
