Passing Instances to the Association Methods

You use the enumerateInstances method to return all instances of a given class, and a loop structure to iterate through the instances. In the loop, you can pass each instance to an association method.

Example 3-14 Passing Instances

This example enumerates the instances in the op class and its subclasses, uses a while loop to cast each instance to a CIMObjectPath (op), and passes each instance as the first argument to the associators method.

 {
    ...
    Enumeration e = cc.enumerateInstances(op, true);
    while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
        op = (CIMObjectPath)e.nextElement();
        Enumeration e1 = cc.associators(op, null, null, 
                null, null, false, false, null);
    ...
    }
