CIM_SoftwareFeature

The CIM_SoftwareFeature class described in Table properties below defines a particular function or capability of a product or

application system. This class is intended to be meaningful to a consumer, or user of a product, rather than to explain how the product is

built or packaged. When a software feature can exist on multiple platforms or operating systems (for example, a client component of a

three-tiered client/server application might run on Windows Server 2003), a software feature is a collection of all the software elements

for these different platforms. The users of the model must be aware of this situation because typically they are interested in a sub-

collection of the software elements required for a particular platform.

The following table describes the property, description, and data type details for CIM SoftwareFeature.
