ManagementObjectCollection Class
Represents different collections of management objects retrieved through WMI. The objects in this collection are of ManagementBaseObject-derived types, including ManagementObject and ManagementClass. The collection can be the result of a WMI query executed through a ManagementObjectSearcher, or an enumeration of management objects of a specified type retrieved through a ManagementClass representing that type. In addition, this can be a collection of management objects related in a specified way to a specific management object - in this case the collection would be retrieved through a method such as GetRelated(). The collection can be walked using the ManagementObjectCollection.ManagementObjectEnumerator and objects in it can be inspected or manipulated for various management tasks.

The ManagementObjectCollection type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Count | Gets a value indicating the number of objects in the collection. |
| IsSynchronized | Gets a value indicating whether the object is synchronized. |
| SyncRoot | Gets the object to be used for synchronization. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| CopyTo(Array, Int32) | Copies the collection to an array. |
| CopyTo(ManagementBaseObject[], Int32) | Copies the items in the collection to a ManagementBaseObject array. |
| Dispose | Releases resources associated with this object. After this method has been called, an attempt to use this object will result in an ObjectDisposedException being thrown. |
| Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Finalize | Disposes of resources the object is holding. This is the destructor for the object. Finalizers are expressed using destructor syntax. (Overrides Object.Finalize().) |
| GetEnumerator | Returns the enumerator for the collection. |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| 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 | |
|---|---|---|
| AsParallel | Enables parallelization of a query. (Defined by ParallelEnumerable.) |
| AsQueryable | Converts an IEnumerable to an IQueryable. (Defined by Queryable.) |
| Cast<TResult> | Casts the elements of an IEnumerable to the specified type. (Defined by Enumerable.) |
| OfType<TResult> | Filters the elements of an IEnumerable based on a specified type. (Defined by Enumerable.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| IEnumerable.GetEnumerator | Returns an IEnumerator that iterates through the ManagementObjectCollection. |
