Getting and Setting CIM Qualifiers

A qualifier flavor is a flag that governs the use of a qualifier. Flavors describe rules that specify whether a qualifier can be propagated to derived classes and instances and whether or not a derived class or instance can override the qualifier's original value.

Example 3-19 Setting CIM Qualifiers

This example sets a list of CIM qualifiers for a new class to the qualifiers in its superclass.

{

 try {
     cimSuperClass = cimClient.getClass(new CIMObjectPath(scName));
        Vector v = new Vector();
        for (Enumeration e = cimSuperClass.getQualifiers().elements();
                         e.hasMoreElements();) { 
CIMQualifier qual = (CIMQualifier)((CIMQualifier)e.nextElement()).clone();
        v.addElement(qual);
        }
        cimClass.setQualifiers(v); 
 } catch (CIMException exc) {
          return;
        }
    }
}
