How can I create an instance of a class in the specified namespace?

[Mike J]

Hi,
I am working on DCOM testing using j-interop. It's good to make a direct connection to the WMI device in a pure java way. But what I need to subscribe to events on the remote COM server. In order to do so, a bunch of classes' instances should be created in the specified namespace. Since j-interop implements the Scripting API for WMI, I checked the API and found that most of methods in SWbemServices are for get/select instances of the classes. One method is for deleting the instances. But there is no methods for creating instances. I was wondering if there is any way for j-interop (narrow down to SWbemServices further) to create instances in a specified namespace?

Hi,

Do you have an example in a parallel language (such as VB or C++/COM) ? We
can try creating something similar ...

best regards,
Vikram

Hi Vikram,
I think I have found a way to create instances of the classes in a specified namespace. For instance, the namespace is "root\cimv2". In order to create an instance of the class, "__Win32Provider", it can be done as follows,

Object[] params = new Object[] { new JIString("Win32Peovider"), new Integer(0x20000), JIVariant.OPTIONAL_PARAM() };
results = wbemServices_dispatch.callMethodA("Get", params);
IJIComObject comObject = JIObjectFactory.narrowObject((results[0]).getObjectAsComObject());
IJIDispatch wbemObject_dispatch = (IJIDispatch) comObject;
results = wbemObject_dispatch.callMethodA("Spawn", new Object[] { new Integer(0) });
comObject = JIObjectFactory.narrowObject((results[0]).getObjectAsComObject());
IJIDispatch win32Provider_dispatch = (IJIDispatch) comObject;
//here the map contains the properties for the class. they are name/value pairs.
for (Entry entry : map.entrySet())
{
String key = (String) entry.getKey();
String value = (String) entry.getValue();
win32Provider_dispatch.put(key, new JIVariant(value));
}
results = win32Provider_dispatch.callMethodA("__Put", new Object[] { new Integer(0), JIVariant.OPTIONAL_PARAM() });
comObject = JIObjectFactory.narrowObject((results[0]).getObjectAsComObject());

I checked and found that the instance was created in the namespace. But I am not sure if it's the correct way for instance creation. Here I share the code with you and please let me know if it's not right.

But I have another problem now. How can I create a derived class from a base class through j-interop? Then get an instance of the derived class? For example, I have a base class, "EventConsumer". I can create an instance of the class with no problem, by using the above method. But here it's not my purpose.Instead of creating an instance of "EventConsumer", I am interested in first creating a derived class of "__EventConsumer", such as "MyCustomizedEventConsumer", and then create an instance of the derived class. Can j-interop have a way to create a derived class from a base class?

Thanks,

Mike

Hi Mike ,

I tried with your sample to create a new instance of a class but it did not work and gave an exception. Did you find any other way to get this solve.

Sorry, __EventConsumer is an abstract class, cannot be instantiated. I need to create a derived class of it first.
