      <h2>RETURN Results</h2>
      <p>If successful, the return value is a single CIM Class.If unsuccessful, one of the
      CIM status codes show below MUST be returned by this method,
	where the first applicable error in the list (starting with the first element of the list,
	and working down) is the error returned. Any additional method-specific interpretation of
	the error in is given in parentheses.&nbsp;
	<UL>
	<LI>CIM_ERR_INVALID_NAMESPACE
	<LI>CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER (including missing, duplicate,
	    unrecognized or otherwise incorrect parameters)
	<LI>CIM_ERR_ACCESS_DENIED
	<LI>CIM_ERR_INVALID_CLASS (the CIM Class does not exist in the
	    specified namespace)
	<LI>CIM_ERR_NOT_FOUND (the CIM Class does exist, but the
	requested 	CIM Instance does not exist in the specified namespace)
	<LI>CIM_ERR_FAILED (some other unspecified error occurred)
	</LI>
    </UL>

      <h2>ADDITIONAL Description of Fields</h2>
      <p><a name="LocalOnly"><b>LocalOnly</b></a> -
      If the <TT>LocalOnly</TT> input parameter is true, this specifies that only CIM
      Elements (properties, methods and qualifiers) overriden within the definition of
      the Class are returned.  If false, all elements are returned.  This parameter
      therefore effects a CIM Server-side mechanism to filter certain elements of the
      returned object based on whether or not they have been propagated from the parent
      Class (as defined by the PROPAGATED attribute).
      <p><b><a name="IncludeQualifiers">IncludeQualifiers</a></b> -
      If the <TT>IncludeQualifiers</TT> input parameter is true, this specifies that
      all Qualifiers for that Class (including Qualifiers on the Class and on any
      returned Properties, Methods or Method Parameters) MUST be included as <QUALIFIER>
      elements in the response.  If false no QUALIFIER elements are present in the
      returned Class.<p><b><a name="IncludeClassOrigins">IncludeClassOrigin</a>s</b>
      -
      If the <TT>IncludeClassOrigin</TT> input parameter is true, this specifies that
      the CLASSORIGIN attribute MUST be present on all appropriate elements in the returned
      Class. If false, no CLASSORIGIN attributes are present in the returned Class.
      <p><b><a name="PropertyList">PropertyList</a> -&nbsp; </b>If the <TT>PropertyList</TT> input parameter is not NULL, the members of the array
      define one or more Property names.  The returned Class MUST NOT include elements for any
      Properties missing from this list. Note that if <TT>LocalOnly</TT> is specified as true this acts
      as an additional filter on the set of Properties returned (for example, if Property A is
      included in the <TT>PropertyList</TT> but <TT>LocalOnly</TT> is set to true and A is not local to the
      requested Class, then it will not be included in the response). If the <TT>PropertyList</TT>
      input parameter is an empty array this signifies that no Properties are included in
      the response. If the PropertyList input parameter is NULL this specifies that all
      Properties (subject to the conditions expressed by the other parameters) are included
      in the response.
      <p>If the <TT>PropertyList</TT> contains duplicate elements, the Server MUST ignore
      the duplicates but otherwise process the request normally. If the PropertyList contains
      elements which are invalid Property names for the target Class, the Server MUST ignore
      such entries but otherwise process the request normally.
