Win32_ODBCTranslatorSpecification

Here are some basic code samples to get you started:

• Getting all instances using PowerShell:
  

  # getting all instances: Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_ODBCTranslatorSpecification # viewing default property in GridView: Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_ODBCTranslatorSpecification |    Out-GridView # using CIM cmdlet  # requires PowerShell 3.0 or better: Get-CIMInstance -ClassName Win32_ODBCTranslatorSpecification

• Selecting all properties (view full object content):
  

  # viewing all properties: Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_ODBCTranslatorSpecification |    Select-Object -Property * # Note: replace "*" with a comma-separated lists of properties to show only selected properties. # displaying information in GridView: # (Note: Out-GridView can only display a maximum of 30 columns. Additional properties are not shown.) Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_ODBCTranslatorSpecification |    Select-Object -Property * |    Out-GridView -Title "Win32_ODBCTranslatorSpecification"

• Querying information remotely:
  

  # connecting to a remote machine using current identity: $ComputerName = 'SomeServerNameOrIP' Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_ODBCTranslatorSpecification -ComputerName $ComputerName # using credentials: $ComputerName = 'SomeServerNameOrIP' $Username = 'mydomain\\myusername' Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_ODBCTranslatorSpecification -ComputerName $ComputerName -Credential $Username

In this WMI class, all WMI properties are read-only. You can only read values but not change them.

Caption

Data type String

CheckID

Data type String

An identifier used in conjunction with other keys to uniquely identify the check

CheckMode

Data type Boolean

The CheckMode property is used to indicate whether the condition is expected to exist or not exist in the environment. When the value is $true, the condition is expected to exist (e.g., a file is expected to be on a system) so invoke() is expected to return $true. When the value is $false, the condition is not expect to exist (e.g., a file is not to be on a system) so invoke is expected to return $false

Description

A description of the objects.

File

SoftwareElementID

Data type String

This is an identifier for this software element.

SoftwareElementState

Data type UInt16

TargetOperatingSystem

Data type UInt16

The target operating system of the this software element.

Translator

Data type String

Invoke

The invoke method is to evaluate a particular check. The details of how the method evaluates a particular check in a CIM context is described by the non-abstract CIM_Check sub classes. The results of the method are based on the return value.
 A 0 (zero) is returned if the condition is satisfied.
 A 1 (one) is returned if the method is not supported.
 Any other value indicates the condition is not satisfied.
