MI_Session_DeleteInstance function (mi.h)

Deletes an instance on the server represented by the session.

Syntax

MI_INLINE void MI_Session_DeleteInstance(
  [in]           MI_Session            *session,
                 MI_Uint32             flags,
  [in, optional] MI_OperationOptions   *options,
                 const MI_Char         *namespaceName,
  [in]           const MI_Instance     *inboundInstance,
  [in, optional] MI_OperationCallbacks *callbacks,
  [out]          MI_Operation          *operation
);

Parameters

[in] session

Session handle returned from MI_Application_NewSession.

flags

Must be 0.

[in, optional] options

Optional MI_OperationOptions value that specifies options such as timeouts and how to control the CIM semantics. Specify NULL if no operation options are to be sent.

namespaceName

An optional, null-terminated string that represents the namespace name to carry out the operation. If none is specified, the server will pick a default. The namespace cannot include a computer name. It can only be in the form of a namespace name separated by a slash mark character (/). For example, the following would be a valid namespaceName value: root/cimv2.

[in] inboundInstance

MI_Instance that represents the class name and key of the instance to be deleted on the server.

[in, optional] callbacks

Optional MI_OperationCallbacks structure that defines the operational callbacks to receive the instance result and CIM semantics. A callback value is required to carry out the operation asynchronously. If NULL is specified, then the client must call the MI_Operation_GetInstance function to retrieve the results.

[out] operation

Operation handle that must be closed with a call to MI_Operation_Close once the operation is finished and all results have been received. The handle can be used to cancel the operation with a call to MI_Operation_Cancel.

Return value

None
