The ManagementName attribute is used to override names exposed through a WMI class.
System.Attribute
System.Management.Instrumentation.ManagementNameAttribute
Namespace: System.Management.Instrumentation

<AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Parameter, AllowMultiple := False)> _ <HostProtectionAttribute(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, MayLeakOnAbort := True)> _ Public NotInheritable Class ManagementNameAttribute _ Inherits Attribute

The ManagementNameAttribute type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
ManagementNameAttribute | Initializes a new instance of the ManagementNameAttribute class that specifies a value for the Name() property of the class. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
Name | Gets or sets the user-friendly name for an object. The object can be a method parameter or properties marked with the ManagementProbe, ManagementKey, or ManagementConfiguration attributes. |
|
|
TypeId | When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
|
Equals | Infrastructure. Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
|
Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
|
GetHashCode | Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
|
|
GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
|
IsDefaultAttribute | When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
|
|
Match | When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
|
|
MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
|
ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames | Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
|
|
_Attribute.GetTypeInfo | Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
|
|
_Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount | Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute.) |
|
|
_Attribute.Invoke | Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
It might be inconvenient to rename method parameters to present WMI clients with more user-friendly names. This attribute lets you assign user-friendly WMI names while retaining your existing internal naming conventions.

The HostProtectionAttribute attribute applied to this type or member has the following Resources property value: MayLeakOnAbort. The HostProtectionAttribute does not affect desktop applications (which are typically started by double-clicking an icon, typing a command, or entering a URL in a browser). For more information, see the HostProtectionAttribute class or SQL Server Programming and Host Protection Attributes. |
In the following example, the integer parameter remains i internally, but will be exposed as "The Value" to WMI clients.
[ManagementTask]
static public int PrintValue([ManagementName("The Value")]int i)
{
Console.WriteLine("The Value is {0:x}", i);
return i;
}
