fr Reggie Mr:

# Here it is...I think this is what you were looking for.
# It displays all of the properties for a WMI Class.
# 
# require 'win32ole'
# 
# class MyClass
# def get_process_info()
#   procs = WIN32OLE.connect("winmgmts:\\\\.")
#     rst = procs.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM meta_class WHERE __class = 
# 'Win32_Process'")
#     rst.each do |x|
#         puts x.path_.Class.to_s  #The Class Name
#         x.properties_.each do |m|
#           puts "  " + m.Name.to_s  #Available Properties of this Class
#         end
#     end
# end
# end
# 
# a = MyClass.new
# a.get_process_info()

cool, Reggie. Thanks much.

I've modified it a bit, if u don't mind.

#-------
class WMI
   require 'win32ole'
   
   def initialize
      @procs = WIN32OLE.connect("winmgmts:\\\\.")
   end
   
   def get_class(wmi_class)
      rst = @procs.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM meta_class WHERE __class = 
'#{wmi_class}'")
      rst.each do |x|
         x.properties_.each do |m|
            yield m if block_given?
         end
      end
   end
end


a = WMI.new

puts "---get process names----"
a.get_class("Win32_Process") do |cl|
   puts cl.name
end

puts "---get registry names----"
a.get_class("Win32_Registry") do |cl|
   puts cl.name
end
#----

I have a problem though, how do i get other properties besides the name, eg cl.name, i tried cl.description but it does not work.
sorry if this is too simple. i do not do windows programming.

kind regards -botp
