The classes' names are self-explanatory. :ref:`LMI_SymbolicLink +<LMI-SymbolicLink>` represents symbolic link files, :ref:`LMI_UnixDeviceFile +<LMI-UnixDeviceFile>` represents unix device files, etc. + +The other type of class is :ref:`LMI_UnixFile <LMI-UnixFile>`. It is used in the +Unix-like environment. Its properties are tied to the system -- Linux in our +case. For example, the group id of the owner or the inode number are among those +properties. + +To provide ways to connect the file subclasses together, LogicalFile also +defines a few associations. + +Association classes: + +* :ref:`LMI_RootDirectory <LMI-RootDirectory>` +* :ref:`LMI_FileIdentity <LMI-FileIdentity>` +* :ref:`LMI_DirectoryContainsFile <LMI-DirectoryContainsFile>` + +:ref:`LMI_RootDirectory <LMI-RootDirectory>` is used to connect the computer +system to its root directory. + +:ref:`LMI_FileIdentity <LMI-FileIdentity>` associates the system-independent +:ref:`CIM_LogicalFile <CIM-LogicalFile>` subclasses to their respective +:ref:`LMI_UnixFile <LMI-UnixFile>` equivalents that are dependent on the +system. + +:ref:`LMI_DirectoryContainsFile <LMI-DirectoryContainsFile>` serves as a tool to +show contents of a directory. Note that directory is usually just a type of +file. + +Deviations from the schema +-------------------------- + +No classes that represent files have the ``EnumerateInstances`` method +implemented. The reason for this is that it would be very resource intensive to +list all the files on the given filesystem. Even more so, for example, all the +symlinks on the filesystem. For that reason, every LogicalFile class +implements only its ``GetInstance`` method. + +The objectpath of the logical file classes consists of these properties: + +* :ref:`CSCreationClassName <CIM-LogicalFile-CSCreationClassName>` +* :ref:`CSName <CIM-LogicalFile-CSName>` +* :ref:`FSCreationClassName <CIM-LogicalFile-FSCreationClassName>` +* :ref:`FSName <CIM-LogicalFile-FSName>` +* :ref:`CreationClassName <CIM-LogicalFile-CreationClassName>` + (:ref:`LFCreationClassName <CIM-UnixFile-LFCreationClassName>` for + :ref:`LMI_UnixFile <LMI-UnixFile>`) +* :ref:`Name <CIM-LogicalFile-Name>` (:ref:`LFName <CIM-UnixFile-LFName>` for + :ref:`LMI_UnixFile <LMI-UnixFile>`) + +When getting an instance, it's usually required that all of the key properties +are specified. However, it is impossible, or at least needlessly complicated, to +know some of them when querying remote machines. For example, if I want to see +information about the file '/home/user/myfile' on a remote computer, I don't +want to specify the filesystem it resides on or the type of the file. + +Therefore, the only mandatory key properties are :ref:`CSCreationClassName +<CIM-LogicalFile-CSCreationClassName>`, :ref:`CSName <CIM-LogicalFile-CSName>` +and :ref:`Name <CIM-LogicalFile-Name>` (of :ref:`LFName <CIM-UnixFile-LFName>` +in case of :ref:`LMI_UnixFile <LMI-UnixFile>`). :ref:`FSName +<CIM-UnixFile-FSName>`, :ref:`FSCreationClassName +<CIM-LogicalFile-FSCreationClassName>` and :ref:`CreationClassName +<CIM-LogicalFile-CreationClassName>` are ignored. They are correctly filled in +after the instance has been properly returned. + +To have an entry point into the Unix filesystems, an association has been +added. It binds the computer system and its root directory. See +:ref:`LMI_RootDirectory <LMI-RootDirectory>`. + +:ref:`LMI_UnixFile <LMI-UnixFile>` has been extended to hold additional +properties. Currently, those are :ref:`SELinuxCurrentContext +<LMI-UnixFile-SELinuxCurrentContext>` and :ref:`SELinuxExpectedContext +<LMI-UnixFile-SELinuxExpectedContext>`. Should there be need for more +additions, this class can be easily extended. + +Getting files +------------- +All further code assumes that a connection object has been created and the +default namespace (root/cimv2) is used.
