The CIMConstMethod class provides a const interface to a CIMMethod object. This class is needed because the shared representation model used by CIMMethod does not prevent modification to a const CIMMethod object. Note that the value of a CIMConstMethod object could still be modified by a CIMMethod object that refers to the same data copy.
Constructor & Destructor Documentation
Constructs an uninitialized CIMConstMethod object. A method invocation on an uninitialized object will result in the throwing of an UninitializedObjectException. An uninitialized object may be converted into an initialized object only by using the assignment operator with an initialized object.
CIMConstMethod::CIMConstMethod ( const CIMConstMethod & x ) Constructs a CIMConstMethod object from the value of a specified CIMConstMethod object, so that both objects refer to the same data copy.
Example:
CIMConstMethod cm1(CIMName ("getHostName"), CIMTYPE_STRING); CIMConstMethod cm2(m1);
- Parameters:
x The CIMConstMethod object from which to construct a new CIMConstMethod object.
CIMConstMethod::CIMConstMethod ( const CIMMethod & x ) Constructs a CIMConstMethod object from the value of a specified CIMMethod object, so that both objects refer to the same data copy.
Example:
CIMMethod m1(CIMName ("getHostName"), CIMTYPE_STRING); CIMConstMethod cm1(m1);
- Parameters:
x The CIMMethod object from which to construct a new CIMConstMethod object.
CIMConstMethod::CIMConstMethod ( const CIMName & name, CIMType type, const CIMName & classOrigin = CIMName()
,Boolean propagated = false
) Constructs a CIMConstMethod object with the specified attributes.
Example:
CIMConstMethod m1(CIMName ("getHostName"), CIMTYPE_STRING);
- Parameters:
name CIMName defining the name for the method. type CIMType defining the method return type. classOrigin (optional) CIMName representing the class origin. Note that this should normally not be used. If not provided set to CIMName() (Null name). propagated Optional flag indicating whether the definition of the CIM Method is local to the CIM Class (respectively, Instance) in which it appears, or was propagated without modification from a superclass. Default is false. Note that this attribute is normally not set by CIM Clients but is used internally within the CIM Server.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the method name is null. Destructs the CIMConstMethod object.
Member Function Documentation
CIMMethod CIMConstMethod::clone ( ) const Makes a deep copy of the method. This creates a new copy of all the method attributes including parameters and qualifiers.
- Returns:
- A CIMMethod object with a separate copy of the CIMConstMethod object.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
Uint32 CIMConstMethod::findParameter ( const CIMName & name ) const Finds a parameter by name.
Example:
Uint32 posParameter; posParameter = m1.findParameter(CIMName ("ipaddress")); if (posParameter != PEG_NOT_FOUND) ...
- Parameters:
name A CIMName specifying the name of the parameter to be found.
- Returns:
- Index of the parameter if found or PEG_NOT_FOUND if not found.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
Uint32 CIMConstMethod::findQualifier ( const CIMName & name ) const Finds a qualifier by name.
Example:
CIMMethod m1(CIMName ("getHostName"), CIMTYPE_STRING); m1.addQualifier(CIMQualifier(CIMName ("stuff"), true)); CIMConstMethod m2(m1); assert(m2.findQualifier(CIMName ("stuff")) != PEG_NOT_FOUND);
- Parameters:
name A CIMName specifying the name of the qualifier to be found.
- Returns:
- Index of the qualifier if found or PEG_NOT_FOUND if not found.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
const CIMName& CIMConstMethod::getClassOrigin ( ) const Gets the class in which this method was defined. This information is normally available with methods that are part of a schema returned from a CIM Server.
- Returns:
- CIMName containing the classOrigin attribute.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
const CIMName& CIMConstMethod::getName ( ) const Gets the name of the method.
Example:
CIMConstMethod m1(CIMName ("getHostName"), CIMTYPE_STRING); assert(m1.getName() == CIMName ("getHostName"));
- Returns:
- CIMName with the name of the method.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
CIMConstParameter CIMConstMethod::getParameter ( Uint32 index ) const Gets the parameter at the specified index.
Example:
CIMConstParameter cp; Uint32 parameterIndex = m1.findParameter(CIMName ("ipaddress")); if (parameterIndex != PEG_NOT_FOUND) { cp = m1.getParameter(parameterIndex); }
- Parameters:
index The index of the parameter to be retrieved.
- Returns:
- The CIMConstParameter at the specified index.
- Exceptions:
IndexOutOfBoundsException If the index is outside the range of parameters available for the CIMMethod. UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
Uint32 CIMConstMethod::getParameterCount ( ) const Gets the number of parameters in the method.
- Returns:
- An integer count of the CIMParameters in the CIMMethod.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
Boolean CIMConstMethod::getPropagated ( ) const Tests the propagated attribute of the object. The propagated attribute indicates whether this method was propagated from a higher-level class. Normally this attribute is set as part of defining a method in the context of a schema. It is set in methods retrieved from a CIM Server.
- Returns:
- True if method is propagated; otherwise, false.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
CIMConstQualifier CIMConstMethod::getQualifier ( Uint32 index ) const Gets the qualifier at the specified index.
Example:
CIMMethod m1(CIMName ("getHostName"), CIMTYPE_STRING); m1.addQualifier(CIMQualifier(CIMName ("stuff"), true)); CIMConstMethod m2(m1); Uint32 posQualifier = m2.findQualifier(CIMName ("stuff")); if (posQualifier != PEG_NOT_FOUND) { CIMQualifier q = m2.getQualifier(posQualifier); }
- Parameters:
index The index of the qualifier to be retrieved.
- Returns:
- The CIMConstQualifier at the specified index.
- Exceptions:
IndexOutOfBoundsException If the index is outside the range of qualifiers available for the CIMMethod. UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
Uint32 CIMConstMethod::getQualifierCount ( ) const Gets the number of qualifiers in the method.
Example:
CIMMethod m1(CIMName ("getHostName"), CIMTYPE_STRING); m1.addQualifier(CIMQualifier(CIMName ("stuff"), true)); m1.addQualifier(CIMQualifier(CIMName ("stuff2"), true)); CIMConstMethod m2(m1); assert(m2.getQualifierCount() == 2);

- An integer count of the CIMQualifiers in the CIMMethod.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
CIMType CIMConstMethod::getType ( ) const Gets the method return type.
Example:
CIMConstMethod m1(CIMName ("getHostName"), CIMTYPE_STRING); assert(m1.getType() == CIMTYPE_STRING);
- Returns:
- A CIMType containing the method return type.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
Boolean CIMConstMethod::identical ( const CIMConstMethod & x ) const Compares the method with another method.
Example:
CIMConstMethod m1(CIMName ("getHostName"), CIMTYPE_STRING); CIMConstMethod m2(CIMName ("test"), CIMTYPE_STRING); assert(!m1.identical(m2));
- Parameters:
x The CIMConstMethod to be compared.
- Returns:
- True if this method is identical to the one specified, false otherwise.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If either of the objects is not initialized.
Boolean CIMConstMethod::isUninitialized ( ) const Determines whether the object has been initialized.
Example:
CIMConstMethod m1; assert(m1.isUninitialized());
- Returns:
- True if the object has not been initialized, false otherwise.
CIMConstMethod& CIMConstMethod::operator= ( const CIMConstMethod & x ) Assigns the value of the specified CIMConstMethod object to this object, so that both objects refer to the same data copy.
