I like the idea of this approach - I think it will help with scalability in the future if we decide to add support for new VMs. I have a few comments though. =) I'm not sure about this change here. If you return true here, then you're accepting just about anything as a possible result class. ECTP for example, the following query accepts Xen_Processor as a valid result class: wbemcli ain -ac Xen_ElementConformsToProfile -arc Xen_Process 'http://root:elm3b41@localhost/root/interop:Xen_RegisteredProfile.InstanceID="CIM:DSP1042-SystemVirtualization-1.0.0"' I tried modifying this line so that it is + if (CMClassPathIsA(broker, rop, comp_class, NULL)) However, the problem with this is that it only allows result class to be one of the items in the list supplied by the handler. For example, ETCP has: +char* managed_element[] = { + "Xen_HostSystem", + "Xen_ComputerSystem", + "KVM_HostSystem", + "KVM_ComputerSystem", + NULL +}; The result class in the following query would not be valid because it doesn't appear in the list. wbemcli ain -ac Xen_ElementConformsToProfile -arc CIM_ManagedElement 'http://root:elm3b41@localhost/root/interop:Xen_RegisteredProfile.InstanceID="CIM:DSP1042-SystemVirtualization-1.0.0"' We can't just add CIM_ManagedElement to the list because this same list is being used for the source class. The source class needs to be specific. Thoughts? I'm not sure if I'm correct in this line of thinking. =) -- Kaitlin Rupert IBM Linux Technology Center karupert@us.ibm.com
