pragma amendment
The pragma amendment preprocessor command directs the MOF compiler to separate a MOF file into language-neutral and language-specific versions. The language-specific MOF file moves amended qualifiers to a namespace for a specific locale. You then compile the language-specific and language-neutral MOF files to store class information in the WMI repository.
Examples
The following example shows how to create a MOF file that contains amended qualifiers. You can then compile the MOF code with the following command:
mofcomp -MOF:Lnmof.mof -MFL:Lsmof.mfl Mastermof.mof
The command instructs the MOF compiler to produce two MOF files from the original Mastermof.mof file. The MOF compiler produces a language-neutral version of the MOF file, called Lnmof.mof, with all language-specific items removed. The compiler also creates a second, language-specific MOF file called Lsmof.mfl that contains only items that you must localize.
Note
When you are splitting a MOF file with the amendment qualifier or the pragma amendment command, you must specify the -MOF and -MFL options. Otherwise, the compiler does not generate any output files. You must then compile the two output files to make the class information available to WMI.
