Implementing a method that can be called with WMI *dead but unresolved*

[toto]

Here is what I have right now:

//Class1.cs

using System;
using System.Management;
using System.Configuration.Install;
using System.Management.Instrumentation;

namespace WmiTest
{
	[System.ComponentModel.RunInstaller(true)]
	public class MyInstaller : DefaultManagementProjectInstaller {}   

	class Class1
	{
		//[STAThread]
		public static int Main(string[] args) 
		{
			InstanceClass instClass = new InstanceClass();
			instClass.Name = "Hello World 01";
			instClass.Number = 1;

			Instrumentation.Publish(instClass);        

			InstanceClass instClass2 = new InstanceClass();
			instClass2.Name = "Hello World 02";
			instClass2.Number = 2;

			Instrumentation.Publish(instClass);        
			Instrumentation.Publish(instClass2);        

			Console.WriteLine("Instance now visible through WMI");
			Console.ReadLine();
			Instrumentation.Revoke(instClass); //optional
			Instrumentation.Revoke(instClass2); //optional
			
			return 0;
		}
	}


	[InstrumentationClass(InstrumentationType.Instance)]
	public class InstanceClass 
	{
		public string Name = "";
		public int Number = 0;

		public void TestMethod()
		{
			Console.WriteLine("asdf");
		}
	}

//AssemblyInfo.cs
//This also was added to this file.

using System.Management.Instrumentation;

[assembly:Instrumented("root/test")]

I'm trying to call the method TestMethod from a wmi script and it says it doesn't exist, however I can access the Name or Number properties!


Here is my wmi script:

' put this code in a file with an extension .vbs to run it
set wmi = GetObject("winmgmts:root/test")

wql = "SELECT * from InstanceClass"
set result = wmi.ExecQuery(wql)

For Each instance in result
	MsgBox instance.Name & ": " & instance.Number
	instance.TestMethod
Next

Thanks guys,

What's WMI?

Maybe you need some attribute on the function too?

[CornedBee]

Try giving it a different name using ManagedNameAttribute, maybe it finds it by that name.

WMI is Windows Management Instrumentation it's something windows software implements for simple management. IIS uses it and with a simple script you can add and remove IIS websites for example without using a DLL.

I'll look into that attribute.. thanks.

* one last bump * =)

If it isn't possible I guess I'll just have to give up on it.

Thanks anyways guys,
