Can someone explain why this code results in two different outputs? > for os in comp.CIM_OperatingSystem (): > print os.Name.split("|")[0] + " Service Pack", os.ServicePackMajorVersion > osVer = os.Name.split("|")[0] + " Service Pack", os.ServicePackMajorVersion > print osVer
the first print statement gives me this: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 and the second print statement gives me this: (u'Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack', 3) I know this is a grossly oversimplified example. The ultimate goal is to get certain things from the system via WMI and then use that data in other scripts to generate test case scripts for a testing tool. So given this example, what I ultimately want is to create a class full of this stuff, that I can call from another program like this: > import SystemInformation > comp = SystemInformation() > # Get OS info > OSVersion = comp.osVer OR just print the result > print comp.osVer Can this be cleared up by using some sort of formatting in print (like sprintf) or am I going to have to manipulate the WMI results before sending them out??
