💖 NAME 💖

CMCIClientFT.getProperty() — grab a named property value off an instance, bestie, it's that simple ✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <cmci.h>

CMPIData
CMCIClientFT.getProperty(CMCIClient*cl,
               CMPIObjectPath*op,
               constchar*name,
               CMPIStatus*rc);

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so picture this: you've got an instance, right, and you want one specific property value off of it. That's literally the whole job. You point at the instance using the reference op and CMCIClientFT.getProperty() goes and gets the named property for you. No cap 💅

Let's do a lil vibe check on the arguments:

• cl — the client object pointer. Your main character, the thing doing the asking 🫶
• op — an ObjectPath object pointer. It's carrying the namespace and the classname that identify which instance we're talking about.
• name — a pointer to a string holding the property name you wanna get. The actual what.
• rc — this one returns the operation status. And heads up: it gets suppressed when NULL, so if you don't pass it anything, it just quietly doesn't report back. She's lowkey mysterious like that 🙈

---

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

When it eats, it ate. 🍓 On success, CMCIClientFT.getProperty() returns a CMPIData object holding the instance property value, and it sets a successful operation status code in rc.

When it doesn't? It returns the CMPIStatus object with an operation status error code set, plus the corresponding error string. So like, you'll know. It's giving "we need to talk." 😭
