SELECT List

Each attribute denotes the name of a column that maps to a property of a CIMInstance in WQL. The AttributeExp has an apply method that, when passed in a CIMInstance, returns the value of the property that the AttributeExp represents. The SelectList has an apply method that, when passed in a CIMInstance, returns a CIMInstance containing only the properties that the SelectList AttributeExp instances denote.
