Example — Calling a Method

The code segment in Example 4–17 gets the instances of the CIM_Service class (services that manage device or software features) and uses the invokeMethod method to stop each service.

Example 4–17 Calling a Method (invokeMethod)

{
    ...
    /* Pass the CIM Object Path of the CIM_Service class 
    to the CIM Object Manager. We want to invoke a method defined in
    this class. */ 
     
    CIMObjectPath op = new CIMObjectPath("CIM_Service"); 
     
    /* The CIM Object Manager returns an enumeration of instance
    object paths, the names of instances of the CIM_Service 
    class. */
     
    Enumeration e = cc.enumInstances(op, cc.DEEP); 
     
    /* Iterate through the enumeration of instance object paths.
    Use the CIM Client getInstance class to get 
    the instances referred to by each object path. */
     
    while(e.hasMoreElements()) {
		    // Get the instance
		    CIMInstance ci = cc.getInstance(e.nextElement(), true);
		    //Invoke the Stop Service method to stop the CIM services.
		    cc.invokeMethod(ci, "StopService", null, null);
		}
