The ManagementBind attribute indicates that a method is used to return the instance of a WMI class associated with a specific key value.
Namespace:

<AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Constructor Or AttributeTargets.Method, AllowMultiple := False)> _
<HostProtectionAttribute(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, MayLeakOnAbort := True)> _
Public NotInheritable Class ManagementBindAttribute _
Inherits ManagementNewInstanceAttribute
Dim instance As ManagementBindAttribute
[AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Constructor|AttributeTargets.Method, AllowMultiple = false)]
[HostProtectionAttribute(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, MayLeakOnAbort = true)]
public sealed class ManagementBindAttribute : ManagementNewInstanceAttribute
[AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets::Constructor|AttributeTargets::Method, AllowMultiple = false)]

public ref class ManagementBindAttribute sealed : public ManagementNewInstanceAttribute
public final class ManagementBindAttribute extends ManagementNewInstanceAttribute
This attribute marks the method that the infrastructure uses to perform the WMI get operation. The method must take the key values of the corresponding WMI class as parameters and return the associated instance of the WMI class.
Important The method parameters must have exactly the same name and type as the key parameters of the class. The key parameters are identified by the .ManagementKeyAttribute attribute
The method must assign values to all instrumented properties of the class.
When the WMI Provider Extensions infrastructure requires this binding functionality, it first searches for a constructor with this attribute. If none is found, it then searches for a static method that returns the WMI class type.
The target of this attribute must be either a method or a static method.
The following example shows how to use the ManagementBind attribute to mark the constructor of a class.
[C#]
// Use the ManagementBind attribute to specify that this constructor
// is used to attach a class instance to a specific WMI
// instance. The constructor should set the values of the
// key properties of the WMI instance.
[ManagementBind]
public ClassConstructor(int Id)
{
// Set this class instance to a specific instance
// by assigning property values and
// giving unique values to the key properties.
