Class CIM_ProtocolAdapter
extends CIM_WBEMService

CIM_ProtocolAdapter is deprecated in lieu of CIM_ObjectManagerAdapter. Since the CIM_ProtocolAdapter class does not have to support the protocols and can be any type of adapter, it was decided to change the name to ObjectManagerAdapter to better reflect the true meaning of the class. A ProtocolAdapter is a Service of the CIM Object Manager. It is responsible for accepting incoming requests on a particular protocol, and translating and forwarding the request to the CIM Object Manager. It is also responsible for translating and sending the response from the CIM Object Manager.
