The IWbemPath::GetServer method retrieves the server portion of the path.

Syntax

HRESULT GetServer(
  [in, out] ULONG  *puNameBufLength,
  [in, out] LPWSTR pName
);

Parameters

[in, out] puNameBufLength

Upon input, this is the size in characters of the buffer pointed to by pszName. Upon return, this is the number of characters in the server name, including the NULL terminator.

[in, out] pName

Server name.

Return value

This method returns the following values.

Remarks

This method can be used to determine how big a buffer is needed for pszName. This is done by passing in a NULL pointer for the buffer, setting puNameBufLength to 0 (zero) and then making the call. Upon return, puNameBufLength indicates how large a buffer is needed for pszName and its terminating NULL character.
