SWbemSink object

The SWbemSink object is implemented by client applications to receive the results of asynchronous operations and event notifications. To make an asynchronous call, you must create an instance of an SWbemSink object and pass it as the ObjWbemSink parameter. The events in your implementation of SWbemSink are triggered when status or results are returned, or when the call is complete. The VBScript CreateObject call creates this object.

Remarks

An asynchronous callback allows a non-authenticated user to provide data to the sink. This poses security risks to your scripts and applications. To eliminate the risks, use either semisynchronous communication or synchronous communication. For more information, see Calling a Method.

Events

You can implement subroutines to be called when events are triggered. For example, if you want to process each object that is returned by an asynchronous query call such as SWbemServices.ExecQueryAsync, create a subroutine using the sink that is specified in the asynchronous call, as shown in the following example.

Sub SinkName_OnObjectReady(objObject, objAsyncContext)

Use the following table as a reference to identify events and trigger descriptions.
