Duplicate IWbemObjectSink::SetStatus Callbacks

Q271215

The information in this article applies to:

Windows Management Instrumentation, version 1.5, used with:
- Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional
- Microsoft Windows 2000 Server
- Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server
- Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server

SYMPTOMS

When you set the WBEM_FLAG_USE_AMENDED_QUALIFIERS flag on a IWbemServices::GetObjectAsync call, IWbemObjectSink::SetStatus is called twice on completion instead of once. Both calls to the SetStatus function have the status flag set to WBEM_STATUS_COMPLETE, which indicates that the operation finished. If you clear the WBEM_FLAG_USE_AMENDED_QUALIFIERS flag, there is a single SetStatus callback.
