Imports System Imports System.Management Public Class Sample Public Overloads Shared Function _ Main(ByVal args() As String) As Integer ' Get the WMI class path Dim p As ManagementPath = _ New ManagementPath( _ "\\ComputerName\root" & _ "\cimv2:Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceID=""C:""") Console.WriteLine("IsClass: " & _ p.IsClass) ' Should be False (because it is an instance) Console.WriteLine("IsInstance: " & _ p.IsInstance) ' Should be True Console.WriteLine("ClassName: " & _ p.ClassName) ' Should be "Win32_LogicalDisk" Console.WriteLine("NamespacePath: " & _ p.NamespacePath) ' Should be "ComputerName\cimv2" Console.WriteLine("Server: " & _ p.Server) ' Should be "ComputerName" Console.WriteLine("Path: " & _ p.Path) ' Should be "ComputerName\root\cimv2: ' Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceId="C:"" Console.WriteLine("RelativePath: " & _ p.RelativePath) ' Should be "Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceID="C:"" End Function End Class
