Environment: Windows 2000, Visual C++ 6 SP3
Windows 2000 introduces many new great features for us system programmers. Perhaps the best of these features is Microsoft’s implementation of WBEM. WBEM is an industry-wide initiative to make system management a more cross platform endeavour. WBEM is incorporated deeply into Windows 2000, and is the facility by which all local and remote system information is gathered.
WBEM is implemented on the Windows 2000 platform as a system service. This service acts as a object request broker for almost any object in Windows (i.e. Process, Eventlog, Perfmon counters, Drivers, and so on) and can be used to create, query, or modify any of these objects via well documented COM calls.
Below I have implemented a class the will allow the creation of any specified process on a remote or local machine. I have included a test project implemented via a simple MFC dialog. Although simplistic, the source should give you an idea of what can be accomplished with this new technology.
Make sure that you have included wbemuuid.lib in your linker settings. (This comes with platform SDK)
