Development Process
Because WMI abstracts the manageable entities with CIM and a collection of providers, the development of a provider implies several steps. The major steps can be summarized as follows:
Step 1 – Create the manageable entity model
- Define a model
- Implement the model
Step 2 – Create the WMI Provider
- Determine the provider type to implement
- Determine the hosting model of the provider
- Create the provider template with the ATL wizard
- Implement the code logic in the provider
- Register the provider with WMI and the system
Step 3 – Test the provider
Step 4 – Create consumer sample code

Famous quotes containing the words development and/or process:
“As long as fathers rule but do not nurture, as long as mothers nurture but do not rule, the conditions favoring the development of father-daughter incest will prevail.”

“Because her instinct has told her, or because she has been reliably informed, the faded virgin knows that the supreme joys are not for her; she knows by a process of the intellect; but she can feel her deprivation no more than the young mother can feel the hardship of the virgin’s lot.”
—Arnold Bennett (1867–1931)
