Subject: WIMS> CIM> Re the inheritance of CIM_PrintQueue from
CIM_JobDestination or from CIM_JobQueue
This question came up during the last concall. I did not have the
opportunity to raise the question at the CIM Core WG meeting last week.
However, in researching the classes to put the question into an email, I
found that the answer is pretty clear.
CIM_JobQueue contains several properties that are not appropriate to
CIM_PrintQueue, e.g., MaxTimeOnQueue, MaxJobsOnQueue, and MaxJobCPUTime.
Even ignoring the question of whether one can inherit from an experimental
class, I do not think we want to clutter CIM_PrintQueue with such
properties. Analogous ones, maybe, but that's an item for Phase 3.
I propose that we drop the idea of changing the inheritance of
CIM_PrintQueue.
