About the Sample Programs

When you install the Solaris WBEM SDK, a sample Java applet and several programs are installed in file:/usr/demo/wbem. You can use these samples as a basis for developing your own applets and programs.

To use the applet and sample programs, make sure that /usr/java points to at least JDK 1.2.2, and that the Solaris WBEM SDK files are installed in the /usr directory.

The following samples are provided:

• Applet – Lists and describes the Solaris software packages that are installed on a system running Solaris WBEM Services, and connects to the CIM Object Manager running on a local or a remote system.

• Client programs – Uses the Java APIs to make requests to the CIM Object Manager.

• Provider programs – Communicates with managed objects to access data.
