Retrieves the names of all the qualifiers or of certain qualifiers that are available from the current object or property.

Note

This API is for internal use only. It's not intended for use from developer code.

Syntax

HRESULT QualifierSet_GetNames (
   [in] int                  vFunc,
   [in] IWbemQualifierSet*   ptr,
   [in] LONG                 lFlags,
   [out] SAFEARRAY (BSTR)**  pstrNames
);

Parameters

vFunc
[in] This parameter is unused.

ptr
[in] A pointer to an IWbemQualifierSet instance.

lFlags
[in] One of the following flags or values that specifies which names to include in the enumeration.

Constant	Value	Description
	0	Return the names of all qualifiers.
`WBEM_FLAG_LOCAL_ONLY`	0x10	Return only the names of qualifiers specific to the current property or object. For a property: Return only the qualifiers specific to the property (including overrides), and not those qualifiers propagated from the class definition. For an instance: Return only instance-specific qualifier names. For a class: Return only qualifiers specific to the class being derived.
`WBEM_FLAG_PROPAGATED_ONLY`	0x20	Return only the names of qualifiers propagated from another object. For a property: Return only the qualifiers propagated to this property from the class definition, and not those from the property itself. For an instance: Return only those qualifiers propagated from the class definition. For a class: Return only those qualifier names inherited from the parent classes.

pstrNames
[out] A new SAFEARRAY that contains the requested names. The array can have 0 elements. If an error occurs, a new SAFEARRAY is not returned.

Return value

The following values returned by this function are defined in the WbemCli.h header file, or you can define them as constants in your code:

Constant	Value	Description
`WBEM_E_INVALID_PARAMETER`	0x80041008	A parameter is not valid.
`WBEM_E_OUT_OF_MEMORY`	0x80041006	Not enough memory is available to begin a new enumeration.
`WBEM_S_NO_ERROR`	0	The function call was successful.

Remarks

This function wraps a call to the IWbemQualifierSet::GetNames method.

Once you've retrieved the qualifier names, you can access each qualifier by name by calling the QualifierSet_Get function.

It is not an error for a given object to have zero qualifiers, so the number of strings in pstrNames on return can be 0, even though the function returns WBEM_S_NO_ERROR.
