WMI OperatingSystemSKU conversion question

[stanl]

Really like WB maps and getting comfortable using them for enum lookups.  The snippet below has a map created to translate the OperatingSystemSKU from a WMI query into text based on the enum. The keys are all integer, but the WMI query returns an odd numeric, and on subsequent runs of the script often a different return. I bing'd [don't Google anymore] looking for a VBA solution I could translate but most of what I found had someone referring to PS which somehow automagically does the conversion. If it can be done in WB would like to keep it in WB.

[JTaylor]

Maybe something like the following.   Was trying to iterate through everything but not acting like I expected.  Maybe this will help though.

sku = oWMI.ExecQuery( "Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem" )

ForEach item in sku
  Message(sku.count,item.OperatingSystemSKU)
Next

Thanks Jim.Was assuming per computer selection of operating system would return a single entity, but your code made the difference.

Glad it helped.

While it went beyond what you needed, I was trying to iterate through all the properties but wasn't able to figure that out before I had to quit.

I am sure there is a cleaner way to do this but for what it is worth....

;use WMI to query OperatingSystemSKU
strComputer = "."
oWMI = GetObject( "winmgmts:\\" : strComputer : "\root\cimv2")
pro = oWMI.Get("Win32_OperatingSystem")
sku = oWMI.ExecQuery( "Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem" )
ForEach sitem in sku
   txt = ""
Next
IntControl(73,2,0,0,0)

ForEach item in pro.Properties_
  txt = txt:item.Name:"  -  "
  pname = item.Name
  val = sitem.%pname%:""
  txt = txt:val:@CRLF
Next
    clipput(txt)

IntControl(73,2,0,0,0) ; Re-arm error handler
Return

Nice use of IntControl 73.  There are a lot of useful scripts out there to detail specific properties, and not sure if all are needed. I got interested in SKU enum for Win10<>Win11 [I don't have Win11 and even though my Surface Pro is not 'eligible' to use it... what am I supposed to do, throw it away???]. 


But I have learned that just selecting by specific property via WMI takes some thought ;) ;)

[JTaylor]

Yeah...probably should have went with recursion but since this was simply trying to figure out how to pull more than just the one property, I was able to make myself quit with what I accomplished :)

This did seem a bit more complicated than I thought it should but I am probably missing something obvious.


Jim

[stanl]

NP. I have always been interested in Enums. With the WindowsOperatingSystem seems the enum for OperatingSystemSKU could differ [something I proved] from the map I created in my initial post. So, when first run on the lookup came back as "CORE" but when I ran this simple PS script

Code Select Expand



Function get-enumValues
{
   Param([string]$enum)
   $enumValues = @{}
   [enum]::getvalues([type]$enum) |
   ForEach-Object {
      $enumValues.add($_, $_.value__)
   }
   $enumValues
}
get-enumValues -enum "microsoft.powershell.commands.OperatingSystemSKU"



It came back as  "WindowsHome"


So, I guess the next Holy Grail is to obtain an enum programmatically as a lookup for a particular translation.

[JTaylor]

Assuming I understand, that is in MUILanguages.   It is a stringArray but I can't figure out how to read it in WinBatch.  Can probably do a conversion using C#.

You might find this helpful, if you don't already have it.

Just wanted to enumerate: the fact that a starter.. Again NP

The MSFT docs list the OS SKUs here:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.powershell.commands.operatingsystemsku?view=powershellsdk-1.1.0

For fun, I did a copy&paste to a WIL ml string and added a few lines to parse the file into a WIL map. If you have a recent copy of the Win32 SDK, you could do the same from one of the SDK header files as well. MSFT states that the SKU values do not change. They will only add new ones if needs be.

I tried to test the results against the posted ps script but it gave me a type-casting error.

[stanl]

I tried to test the results against the posted ps script but it gave me a type-casting error.

Funny, it worked for me but on subsequent tries [PS 5.1 in both 32/64 ISE] it failed with type conversion error. So, indeed PS can be flakey.


I added a few more enums... some worked, some didn't. Then I read that the errors would be overcome if you added a reference to Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Proxy.dll --- I found it in my Visual Studio 2019 Community folder and played around

Code Select Expand



Function get-enumValues
{
   Param([string]$enum)
   $enumValues = @{}
   [enum]::getvalues([type]$enum) |
   ForEach-Object {
      $enumValues.add($_, $_.value__)
   }
   $enumValues
}


Add-Type "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\Common7\IDE\TestTools\TeamExplorerClient\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Proxy.dll"
get-enumValues -enum "microsoft.powershell.commands.OperatingSystemSKU"
#get-enumValues -enum "microsoft.powershell.commands.WebRequestMethod"
#get-enumValues -enum "microsoft.powershell.commands.OSType"
#get-enumValues -enum "System.Diagnostics.Eventing.Reader.StandardEventLevel"



and yes, the enums all worked but with a lot of initial errors... commented the Add-Type line and all still worked without error. Not great but the data can be output to text and easily converted to WB maps.


Guess this really hijacks the thread; have to take it up with the user who started it ::) ::) [size=78%] [/size]
