Hello,

another problem from app in bug 24875 which deserves an extra bug.

The app still fails with wine-1.5.7-252-g1f01355

The problems seems to be a WMI -> .NET type conversion problem of "ProcessId"
property value.

"InvalidCastException" is thrown

MapWmiValueToValue converts WMI values (wrapped in object) to native .NET value
(wrapped in object) with type conversion if necessary.

MSDN claims "ProcessId" is CIM_UINT32/uint32.

The following link shows example "ProcessId" property dump with 'wbemdump'
tool:

http://nukz.net/reference/wmi/hh/wmisdk/wbemdump_8wft.htm

--- snip ---
wbemdump /Q /wy root\cimv2 WQL "SELECT ProcessId
FROM Win32_process WHERE Name = 'Winmgmt.exe'"

This command produces the following output:

(WQL) SELECT ProcessId FROM Win32_Process WHERE Name = 'Winmgmt.exe'

        ProcessId (CIM_UINT32/uint32) = 644 (0x284)
--- snip ---

For CIM_UINT32 type there seems to be 'unboxing' taking place:

net_value = (uint)((int)(wmi_value))

I extracted a small C# snippet from the app .NET assembly which can be used for
easy reproduction of the problem.

Save the following snippet to a text file (ex: "test.cs"):

--- snip test.cs ---
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Management;

class TestProgram
{
    [STAThread]
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        using (ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = new
ManagementObjectSearcher("Select * from Win32_Process"))
        {
            new ManagementScope(@"root\CIMV2");
            foreach (ManagementObject obj2 in searcher.Get())
            {
                string str = obj2["ProcessId"].ToString();
            }
        }
    }
} 
--- snip test.cs ---

Compile it with C# compiler which is present if you installed .NET 2.0
Framework (winetricks).

--- snip ---
$ wine "C:\\windows\\Microsoft.NET\\Framework\\v2.0.50727\\csc.exe" /debug+
test.cs 
--- snip ---

Run and get the same backtrace as with installer.

The problem is CIMTYPE -> OLE Variant type conversion.

 681     switch (view->table->columns[column].type & COL_TYPE_MASK)
 682     {
 683     case CIM_STRING:
 684     case CIM_DATETIME:
 685         V_VT( ret ) = VT_BSTR;
 686         V_BSTR( ret ) = SysAllocString( (const WCHAR *)(INT_PTR)val );
 687         break;
 688     case CIM_SINT16:
 689         V_VT( ret ) = VT_I2;
 690         V_I2( ret ) = val;
 691         break;
 692     case CIM_UINT16:
 693         V_VT( ret ) = VT_UI2;
 694         V_UI2( ret ) = val;
 695         break;
 696     case CIM_SINT32:
 697         V_VT( ret ) = VT_I4;
 698         V_I4( ret ) = val;
 699         break;
 700     case CIM_UINT32:
 701         V_VT( ret ) = VT_UI4;
 702         V_UI4( ret ) = val;
 703         break;
 704     case CIM_SINT64:
 705         V_VT( ret ) = VT_BSTR;
 706         V_BSTR( ret ) = get_value_bstr( view->table, row, column );
 707         break;
 708     case CIM_UINT64:
 709         V_VT( ret ) = VT_BSTR;
 710         V_BSTR( ret ) = get_value_bstr( view->table, row, column );
 711         break;
...
--- snip ---

The unbox failure let me guess that CIM_UINT32 doesn't map to VT_UI4 but to
VT_I4.
Google "CIM_UINT32 VT_I4" and hit the first link -> book "Developing Wmi
Solutions: A Guide to Windows Management ..."
Bingo! There is a table which shows the type mapping (BTW good WMI resource to
read...)

uint32 - VT_I4 - CIM_UINT32

While you're at it you might want to fix other type conversions (CIM_UINT16
...) according to the table.
