So, does anyone know how to get the collection / swbemobjectset from an
asynchronous call to WMI on-completed()...? And, also does anyone know how
to get the collection when its not fully done?

It seems like it should be possible.... but I'm racking my brain trying to
find an answer.

Here is a sample:


Set objSWbemServices = GetObject _
("winmgmts:\\.\root\cimv2")

Set objSink = WScript.CreateObject _
("WbemScripting.SWbemSink","objSink_")

objSWbemServices.ExecQueryAsync _
objSink, "Select * From CIM_DataFile " & _
"Where Path = '\\windows\\system32\\'"

MsgBox "Waiting for objects!"


Sub objSink_OnCompleted(iHRes, objWmiErr, objCntxt)
WScript.Echo VbCrtLf & "Async call completed."
End Sub

Sub objSink_OnObjectReady(objWmiObj, objCntxt)
WScript.Echo objWmiObj.FileName
End Sub



MsgBox prevents the script from ending. objSink_OnObjectReady receives
CIM_DataFile instances asynchronously (as objWmiObj) and echoes their
FileName property. When the call is completed objSink_OnCompleted is
triggered.
I'm not sure if it is possible to get the collection of WMI objects as a
SWbemObjectSet object with an asynchronous call.
