TO-DO List | TO-DO List |
========== | ========== |
| |
------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
- Instances: |
|
|
|
- Implement CIMRepository::getProperty() |
|
|
|
- Implement CIMRepository::setProperty() |
|
|
|
- Implement CIMRepository::deleteInstance() |
|
|
|
- Implement CIMRepository::modifyInstance() |
|
|
|
- Implement CIMRepository::enumerateInstances() |
|
|
|
- Implement CIMRepository::enumerateInstanceNames() |
|
|
|
- Handle inheritance in all instance operations. |
|
|
|
- Double check that all these operations work across protocol. |
|
|
|
- Check that they have keys during validation. |
|
|
|
- Associations: |
|
|
|
- Implement CIMRepository::referencesOf() |
|
|
|
- Implement CIMRepository::associatorsOf() |
|
|
|
- Implement protocol stubs for these operations. |
|
|
|
- Exceptions: |
|
|
|
- Clean up and consolidate exception classes. |
|
|
|
- Propagate underlying error messages across the CIM protocol. |
|
|
|
- References: |
|
|
|
- Validate arguments to CIMReference compound constructor and modifiers. |
|
(namespaces, hosts, classnames, and keybindings) |
|
|
|
- Be sure that escape sequences are handled inside of object names. For |
|
example: |
|
|
|
X.key1="Hello \"You\"" |
|
|
|
- Protocol: |
|
|
|
- Improve protocol tracing to show messages in both directions. |
|
|
|
- The TCPChannel::writeN() method blocks when the client and server |
|
are in the same process. That is because the client cannot read |
|
anything as long as writeN() is blocked on a synchronous write. |
|
|
|
- Figure out how to handle getProperty() return type. |
|
|
|
- Provide ACE Channel implementation (for porting purposes)? |
|
|
|
- Handle PARAMETER.REFARRAY in Procotol? |
|
|
|
- Ignore extraneous XML elements (loosely valid). |
|
|
|
- Porting: |
|
|
|
- Replace "std::something" with "STD(something)" |
|
|
|
- Replace "using namespace std" with "USING_NAMESPACE_PEGASUS" |
|
|
|
- Aesthetics/Consistency/Usability: |
|
|
|
- Change getLength() and getSize() to just size(): "Brevity is the soul |
|
of genius and of Lingerie". |
|
|
|
- Add methods to get objects by their names, in addition to index. For |
|
example: |
|
|
|
CIMProperty CIMClass::getProperty(const String& name); |
|
|
|
- Perform walkthrough to expose consistency problems. |
|
|
|
- Distinguish between private and public classes (otherwise, users may |
|
come to depend on classes with unstable interfaces). |
|
|
|
- Documentation: |
|
|
|
- Suggest newlines after methods. |
|
|
|
