WMI Performace counters.
I think this is my first question on this forum (ever).
It is about using WMI classes to collect performance counters formatted data using C++ (NOT .NET).
After calling GetObjects I am retrieving pointer (pp) to an IWbemObjectAccess objects. So far do good.
Now I can call GetPropertyHandle to retrieve the handle and the handle type. I hit a brick wall here. All samples I found (actually one copied all over different sited) shows how to get VirtualBytes for Win32_PerfRawData_PerfProc_Process class.
I cannot figure out how for example retrieve Name property and corresponding value. Using IWbemObjectAccess to get properties seems a little awkward.
Is it possible to get IWbemClassObject type object knowing IWbemObjectAccess? Having IWbemClassObject pointer it would be much easier (I think) to retrieve all properties I need (almost all). How in the name of C++ can I do it the easiest way?
Could somebody push me in the right direction?
