Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Gets the output parameters to the method. Each parameter is described as a property in the object. If a parameter is both in and out, it will appear in both the InParameters and OutParameters properties.
public:
property System::Management::ManagementBaseObject ^ OutParameters { System::Management::ManagementBaseObject ^ get(); };public System.Management.ManagementBaseObject OutParameters { get; }member this.OutParameters : System.Management.ManagementBaseObjectPublic ReadOnly Property OutParameters As ManagementBaseObjectProperty Value
Returns a ManagementBaseObject containing the output parameters for the method.
Examples
The following example lists information about the Win32_Process.Create method using the MethodData class. For more information on the Win32_Process class, see the Windows Management Instrumentation documentation.

using System.Management;
public class Sample
{
public static void Main()
{
// Get the WMI class
ManagementClass processClass =
new ManagementClass("Win32_Process");
processClass.Options.UseAmendedQualifiers = true;
// Get the methods in the class
MethodDataCollection methods =
processClass.Methods;
// display the method names
Console.WriteLine("Method Name: ");
foreach (MethodData method in methods)
{
if(method.Name.Equals("Create"))
{
Console.WriteLine(method.Name);
Console.WriteLine("Description: " +
method.Qualifiers["Description"].Value);
Console.WriteLine();
Console.WriteLine("In-parameters: ");

method.InParameters.Properties)

Console.WriteLine(i.Name);

Console.WriteLine();
Console.WriteLine("Out-parameters: ");

Remarks
Each parameter in this object should have an ID qualifier to identify the order of the parameters in the method call.
The ReturnValue property is a special property of the ManagementBaseObject returned by the OutParameters property and holds the return value of the method.
Property Value
A ManagementBaseObject containing all the output parameters to the method.
