CIMConstClass Class Reference
#include <CIMClass.h>
Detailed Description
The CIMConstClass class provides a const interface to a CIMClass object. This class is needed because the shared representation model used by CIMClass does not prevent modification to a const CIMClass object. Note that the value of a CIMConstClass object could still be modified by a CIMClass object that refers to the same data copy.
Constructor & Destructor Documentation
Constructs an uninitialized CIMConstClass object. A method invocation on an uninitialized object will result in the throwing of an UninitializedObjectException. An uninitialized object may be converted into an initialized object only by using the assignment operator with an initialized object.
CIMConstClass::CIMConstClass ( const CIMConstClass & x ) Constructs a CIMConstClass object from the value of a specified CIMConstClass object, so that both objects refer to the same data copy.
- Parameters:
x The CIMConstClass object from which to construct a new CIMConstClass object.
CIMConstClass::CIMConstClass ( const CIMClass & x ) Constructs a CIMConstClass object from the value of a specified CIMClass object, so that both objects refer to the same data copy.
- Parameters:
x The CIMClass object from which to construct a new CIMConstClass object.
CIMConstClass::CIMConstClass ( const CIMObject & x ) [explicit]

DynamicCastFailedException If a CIMConstClass can not be created from the given CIMObject.
CIMConstClass::CIMConstClass ( const CIMConstObject & x ) [explicit]
Constructs a CIMConstClass object from the value of a specified CIMConstObject object, so that both objects refer to the same data copy.
- Parameters:

UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
CIMConstProperty CIMConstClass::getProperty ( Uint32 index ) const Gets the property at the specified index.
- Parameters:
index The index of the property to be retrieved.
- Returns:
- The CIMConstProperty at the specified index.
- Exceptions:
IndexOutOfBoundsException If the index is outside the range of properties available for the CIMConstClass. UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
Uint32 CIMConstClass::getPropertyCount ( ) const Gets the number of properties in the class.
- Returns:
- An integer count of the properties in the CIMConstClass.
- Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
CIMConstQualifier CIMConstClass::getQualifier ( Uint32 index ) const Gets the qualifier at the specified index.
- Parameters:
index The index of the qualifier to be retrieved.
- Returns:
- The CIMConstQualifier at the specified index.
- Exceptions:
IndexOutOfBoundsException If the index is outside the range of qualifiers available for the CIMConstClass. UninitializedObjectException If the object is not initialized.
Uint32 CIMConstClass::getQualifierCount ( ) const Gets the number of qualifiers in the class.
- Returns:
- An integer count of the qualifiers in the CIMConstClass.
