SWbemEventSource.NextEvent method
If an event is available, the NextEvent method of the SWbemEventSource object retrieves the event from an event query.
For an explanation of this syntax, see Document Conventions for the Scripting API.
Syntax
objWbemObject = .NextEvent( _
[ ByVal iTimeoutMs ] _
)
Parameters
-
iTimeoutMs [in, optional]
-
Number of milliseconds the call waits for an event before returning a time-out error. The default value for this parameter is wbemTimeoutInfinite (-1), which directs the call to wait indefinitely.
Return value
If the NextEvent method is successful, it returns an SWbemObject object that contains the requested event. If the call times out, the returned object is NULL and an error is raised.
Error codes
Upon the completion of the NextEvent method, the Err object may contain the error code in the following list.
-
wbemErrTimedOut - 0x80043001
-
Requested event did not arrive in the amount of time specified in iTimeoutMs.
