IWbemContext::Clone method (wbemcli.h)

  • Article

The IWbemContext::Clone method makes a logical copy of the current IWbemContext object. This method can be useful when many calls must be made which have largely identical IWbemContext objects.

Syntax

HRESULT Clone(
  [out] IWbemContext **ppNewCopy
);

Parameters

[out] ppNewCopy

Must point to NULL on entry. It receives a pointer to the new object containing the clone of the current object. The returned pointer has a positive reference count. The caller must call IWbemServices::Release on this pointer when it is no longer needed. On error, this pointer is left unmodified, and a new object is not returned.

Return value

This method returns an HRESULT indicating the status of the method call. The following list lists the value contained within an HRESULT.
