I'm no expert on Java, but these links should be helpful:

1. The WBEM Homepage
2. WBEM on Wikipedia

It looks like an API to control hardware/software through a standardized programming interface. Looks like it may be useful in manufacturing / embedded Linux environments.

Wikipedia says "In summary, the WBEM architecture allows the manufacturer of a device or developer of a service to provide a standards-compliant management interface to that device simply and cheaply".

thanks for the reply but that is not what i am looking for. i am talking about the utility that windows have in the specified path i wrote in my last post. the java part comes later when we are going to use it. but right now i am looking to know what that utility exactly do and if someone can help me to search for its tutorials. I have googled it but i have not find any thing specific to that utility.

The only thing I found was it is in the same realms as working with Windows WMI tools. But as far as tutorials or examples I have had no luck as well.
