💖 CMCIClientFT.execQuery() — the "gimme every instance that matches" girlie 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to section 3 of the manual, dated 2005-06-09 — yes she's an old queen but she still slays ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

CMCIClientFT.execQuery() — Query the enumeration of instances of a class

like… she queries. she enumerates. she's an icon. 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <cmci.h>

CMPIEnumeration*
CMCIClientFT.execQuery(CMCIClient*cl,
               CMPIObjectPath*op,
               constchar*query,
               constchar*lang,
               CMPIStatus*rc);

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

So what she does is — she queries the enumeration of instances of the class (and its subclasses, yes girl, subclasses too 👑) defined by reference op, using the query expression. Like, you hand her a class, you hand her a query, she hands you back the instances. main character energy fr fr.

Now, the arguments, one by one, because we don't skip 🫶:

• cl — the client object pointer.
• op — an ObjectPath object pointer, holding the reference that contains the namespace and classname components.
• query — the query expression string pointer.
• lang — the query language identifier string pointer.
• rc — returns the operation status. (suppressed when NULL — so if you pass NULL she just… doesn't tell you. your choice bestie 🙈)

---

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

When it's a slay: CMCIClientFT.execQuery() returns a pointer to a CMPIEnumeration object that contains the class instances that match the query, and sets a successful operation status code. ate. 💖

When it's not a slay: it returns a NULL pointer, and sets the operation status error code and the corresponding error string in rc. no cap. 😭
