ManagementPath.Path Property

Definition

Namespace:

System.Management

Assembly:

System.Management.dll

Package:

System.Management v9.0.0

Source:

ManagementPath.cs

Gets or sets the string representation of the full path in the object.

public:
 property System::String ^ Path { System::String ^ get(); void set(System::String ^ value); };

public string Path { get; set; }

member this.Path : string with get, set

Public Property Path As String

Property Value

String

Returns a String value containing the full path.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how the ManagementPath class parses a path to a WMI object. The path that is parsed in the example is a path to an instance of a class.

using System;
using System.Management;

public class Sample
{
    public static void Main()
    {

        // Get the WMI class path
        ManagementPath p =
            new ManagementPath(
            "\\\\ComputerName\\root" +
            "\\cimv2:Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceID=\"C:\"");

        Console.WriteLine("IsClass: " +
            p.IsClass);
        // Should be False (because it is an instance)

        Console.WriteLine("IsInstance: " +
            p.IsInstance);
        // Should be True

        Console.WriteLine("ClassName: " +
            p.ClassName);
        // Should be "Win32_LogicalDisk"

        Console.WriteLine("NamespacePath: " +
            p.NamespacePath);
        // Should be "ComputerName\cimv2"

        Console.WriteLine("Server: " +
            p.Server);
        // Should be "ComputerName"

        Console.WriteLine("Path: " +
            p.Path);
        // Should be "ComputerName\root\cimv2:
        // Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceId="C:""

        Console.WriteLine("RelativePath: " +
            p.RelativePath);
        // Should be "Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceID="C:""
    }
}

Public Class Sample

        Main(ByVal args() As String) As Integer

        ' Get the WMI class path
        Dim p As ManagementPath = _

            "\\ComputerName\root" & _

            p.ClassName)
        ' Should be "Win32_LogicalDisk"

        Console.WriteLine("NamespacePath: " & _
            p.NamespacePath)
        ' Should be "ComputerName\cimv2"

        Console.WriteLine("Server: " & _
            p.Server)
        ' Should be "ComputerName"

        Console.WriteLine("Path: " & _
            p.Path)
        ' Should be "ComputerName\root\cimv2:
        ' Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceId="C:""

        Console.WriteLine("RelativePath: " & _
            p.RelativePath)
        ' Should be "Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceID="C:""

    End Function
End Class

Remarks

Property Value

A string containing the full path represented in this object.
