iSMBIOS 1.0.2

What is iSMBIOS?

iSMBIOS is a lightweight implementation that allows us to obtain the SMBIOS information

This library fully implements DMTF Specification 3.2.0 and olders versions

For more information, please see https://www.dmtf.org/standards/smbios

Usage

Call DMI.Instance.Structures for gets all SMBIOS structures availables.

Examples

1. Gets and print all SMBIOS availables structures.

        DmiStructureCollection structures = DMI.Instance.Structures;
        foreach (DmiStructure structure in structures)
        {
            Console.WriteLine($"{(int) structure.Class:D3}-{structure.Class}");
        }
   

2. Gets a specific SMBIOS structure.

        DmiStructureCollection structures = DMI.Instance.Structures;
        DmiStructure bios = structures[SmbiosStructure.Bios];
        if (bios != null)
        {
            /// structure exist!!!
        }
   

3. Print all SMBIOS structures properties

        foreach (DmiStructure structure in structures)
        {
            Console.WriteLine();
            Console.WriteLine(@" ——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————");
            Console.WriteLine($@" {(int)structure.Class:D3}-{structure.Class} structure detail");
            Console.WriteLine(@" ——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————");
            DmiClassCollection elements = structure.Elements;
            foreach (DmiClass element in elements)
            {
                Hashtable elementProperties = element.Properties;
                foreach (DictionaryEntry property in elementProperties)
                {
                    var value = property.Value;
   
                    var key = (PropertyKey)property.Key;
                    var id = key.PropertyId;
   
                    var valueUnit = key.PropertyUnit;
                    var unit =
                        valueUnit == PropertyUnit.None
                            ? string.Empty
                            : valueUnit.ToString();
   
                    if (value == null)
                    {
                        Console.WriteLine($@"{id} -> NULL");
                        continue;
                    }
   
                    if (value is string)
                    {
                        Console.WriteLine($@"   > {id} > {value}{unit}");
