Support for forward-compatibility is a fundamental design principle for the

OpenPegasus project. As a Community, our goal is for well-behaved OpenPegasus

Providers or Clients, using only the externally defined OpenPegasus interface,

to continue to work with a minor version upgrade of OpenPegasus. However, there

are certain classes of errors (e.g., non-compliance with a standard that

significantly affects interoperability) that may require the Community to make

potentially incompatible changes. The following table contains a list of defect

fixes that MAY impact, even well-behaved, OpenPegasus Providers or Clients when

upgrading to this OpenPegasus release.

Previously, this check was only performed for derived classes. In

Pegasus 2.9, the check is also done for base classes. This may cause a

MOF file that previously loaded without problem to generate an error if it

contains a forward reference. Note that the CIM 2.13.1 schema in the

data object.

Specifically, setName() may throw the new exception in these cases:

CIMProperty contained by CIMClass, CIMInstance, and CIMObject

CIMQualifier contained by CIMClass, CIMInstance, CIMObject,

CIMProperty, CIMParameter, and CIMMethod

CIMMethod contained by CIMClass

In Pegasus 2.8, the C++ CMPI IndicationMI function

signatures were changed to fit the CMPIIndicationMIFT definitions.

The CmpiResult parameter in CmpiIndicationMI authorizeFilter, mustPoll,

activateFilter and deActivateFilter have been removed cause it does not

exist in the CMPIIndicationMIFT definitions.

The missing CmpiContext parameter and CMPIStatus have been added to

enableIndications and disableIndications.</td>

</tr>

<td>

In Pegasus 2.8, the CMPI property filter handling performance was improved.

Two things have changed in the behaviour of the property filter

handling:

* Repeated applying of property filters onto the same instance will now

only leave the properties which build the most common dominator on the

instance.

* It is not possible anymore to add properties not defined for the

corresponding class to an instance.</td>

</tr>

<td>

In Pegasus 2.8, the algorithm used by the MessageLoader

to search the accept language list to determine which message file to

open was changed. Before Pegasus 2.8, the Message Loader used the

following algorithm:

1.) The Message Loader will search the accept

language list for an exact match. The first exact match found will

be returned.

2.) If an exact match does not exist, the Message Loader will return

an ICU "fallback" match for the first entry in accept language list.

3.) If an ICU "fallback" match does not exist for the first entry,

it will return the ROOT resource bundle.

</blockquote>

With the release of Pegasus 2.8, the Message Loader no longer returns ICU "fallback" matches. In addition, it gives

preference to the default process locale over the ROOT resource bundle.

In Pegasus 2.8, the Message Loader was modified to use the

following algorithm:

<ul>

1.) The Message Loader will search the accept

language list for an exact match. The first exact match found will

be returned.

2.) If an exact match does not exist, the Message Loader will return

an exact match for the default process locale.

3.) If an exact match for the default process locale is not found,

it will return the ROOT resource bundle.

</ul>

Since OpenPegasus 2.7.2 the way CMPI_chars are added to

arrays was corrected to follow the CMPI specification. Following the

CMPI specification means that CMPI_chars are not to be dereferenced,

contrary to all other subtypes of CMPIValues.

If you experience an error since switching over to OpenPegasus 2.8

saying "The byte sequence starting at offset xx is not valid UTF-8

encoding", this is an indication for a missing update in the provider

code.

The update for a C CMPI provider using arrays of CMPI_chars is to use a

char* now as input parameter instead of a char**.

CMPI Example:

char* role = "Unknown";

array = CMNewArray(_broker,1,CMPI_chars,rc);

from:

CMSetArrayElementAt(array,0,(CMPIValue*)&role,CMPI_chars);

to:

CMSetArrayElementAt(array,0,(CMPIValue*)role,CMPI_chars);</td>
