A CIMMethod is generally defined in the context of a CIMClass. A CIMMethod consists of:
  • A CIMName containing the name of the method
  • A CIMType defining the method return type
  • Zero or more CIMQualifier objects
  • Zero or more CIMParameter objects defining the method parameters
In addition, a CIMMethod has these internal attributes:
  • propagated - An attribute defining whether this CIMMethod is propagated from a superclass. Note that this is normally set as part of completing the definition of objects (resolving) when they are created as part of a CIM schema and is NOT automatically set when creating a method object. It can only be logically set in context of the schema in which the CIMMethod is defined.
  • classOrigin - An attribute defining the class in which this CIMMethod was originally defined. This is normally set within the context of the schema in which the CIMMethod is defined. This attribute is available from objects retrieved from the CIM Server, for example, and provides information on the defintion of this method in the class hierarchy. The propagated and ClassOrigin attributes can be used together to determine if methods originated with this object or were inherited from higher levels of the hiearchy.

The CIMMethod class uses a shared representation model, such that multiple CIMMethod objects may refer to the same data copy. Assignment and copy operators create new references to the same data, not distinct copies. An update to a CIMMethod object affects all the CIMMethod objects that refer to the same data copy. The data remains valid until all the CIMMethod objects that refer to it are destructed. A separate copy of the data may be created using the clone method. */ class PEGASUS_COMMON_LINKAGE CIMMethod { public: /** Constructs an uninitialized CIMMethod object.
