The IWbemClassObject::GetNames method retrieves the names of the properties in the object. Furthermore, depending on user-supplied selection criteria, it can retrieve all or a subset of the properties. These properties can then be accessed by using IWbemClassObject::Get for each name. This method can also return system properties.
A parameter that can be NULL. If not NULL, it must point to a valid LPCWSTR specifying a qualifier name which operates as part of a filter. This is handled as read-only. For more information, see Remarks.
For more information, see Remarks.
A parameter that can be NULL. If not NULL, it must point to a valid VARIANT structure initialized to a filter value. This VARIANT is handled as read-only by the method. Thus, the caller must call VariantClear on it, if required. For more information, see Remarks.
A parameter that cannot be NULL, but on entry this parameter must point to NULL. A new SAFEARRAY structure is always allocated, and the pointer is set to point to it. The returned array can have 0 elements, but is always allocated when WBEM_S_NO_ERROR returns. On error, a new SAFEARRAY structure is not returned.
This method returns an HRESULT indicating the status of the method call. The following list lists the value contained within an HRESULT. For general HRESULT values, see System Error Codes.
The names returned are controlled by a combination of flags and parameters. For example, all names of all properties can be specified, or only the key properties can be specified, and so on. The primary filter is specified in the lFlags parameter; the other parameters vary depending upon it.
The flag values are bit fields, and can be combined. One flag from each of the following groups can be combined with a flag from each of the other groups. Flag values within a group are mutually exclusive.
| Group 1 flags | Description |
|---|---|
| WBEM_FLAG_ALWAYS | Return all property names. The strQualifierName and pQualifierVal parameters are not used. |
| WBEM_FLAG_ONLY_IF_TRUE | Return only properties that have a qualifier of the name specified by the parameter strQualifierName. If this flag is used, you must specify strQualifierName. |
| WBEM_FLAG_ONLY_IF_FALSE | Return only properties that do not have a qualifier of the name specified by the parameter strQualifierName. If this flag is used, you must specify strQualifierName. |
| WBEM_FLAG_ONLY_IF_IDENTICAL | Return only properties that have a qualifier of the name specified by the parameter QualifierName, and also have a value identical to the value specified by the VARIANT structure pointed to by pQualifierVal. If this flag is used, you must specify both QualifierName and pQualifierVal. |
| Group 2 flags | Description |
|---|---|
| WBEM_FLAG_KEYS_ONLY | Return only the names of the property or properties that define the keys. |
| WBEM_FLAG_REFS_ONLY | Return only property names that are object references. |
| Group 3 flags | Description |
|---|---|
| WBEM_FLAG_LOCAL_ONLY | Return only property names that belong to the derived-most class. Exclude properties from the parent class or parent classes. |
| WBEM_FLAG_PROPAGATED_ONLY | Return only property names that belong to the parent class or parent classes. |
| WBEM_FLAG_SYSTEM_ONLY | Return only system properties. |
| WBEM_FLAG_NONSYSTEM_ONLY | Return only property names that are not system properties. |
It is not an error for an empty list to be returned in cases where no properties match the specified filters.
