  5 mike  1.10     - Having problems with reference on Repository::createInstance() and
  6                  Repository::getInstance(). References not always in standard form.
  7                  Also, resolve() fails when instance has properties of difference
  8                  case.

 13                Now:
 14            

 15 mike  1.11     -	Change CimException to CIMException
 16                -   Get ACE working on Tandem (or remove ACE from Pegasus).
 17                -   Port Pegasus to Tandem (look for Tandem machine at BMC).
 18                -   Instance repository.
 19                -   Finalize provider interface.
 20                -   Associations (basic).
 21                -   Provider registration (by the standard).
 22                -   MOF compiler (finalize).
 23                -   Write short paper on Pegasus data objects.
 24                -   Integrate DOC++ with make system.
 25                -   Implement the process provider.
 26                -   Compaq requested SQL level-1 description.
 27                -   Get rid of ACE (required if no ACE on Tandem).
 28                -   Need query capability for Compaq.
 29                -   Threading (and process forking).
 30                -   Implement protocol module (the default uses ACE).
 31                -	Package up pegasus in Install Shield application.

 34 mike  1.1      ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 35            

 36 mike  1.8      (A)	Modify clear() methods on Array and String so that they don't
 37            	release the old resource (more efficient for GetLine()). Add
 38            	a resize() method.
 39            
 40                (A)	Handle escaping of strings inside object names. Example:
 41            
 42                		X.key1="Hello \"You\""
 43            

 44 mike  1.4      (A) Change make system to rename dll's before link so that they
 45            	can be used by the server.
 46            

 47 mike  1.3      (A) Hide setPropagated() and setClassOrigin() methods (only the resolve
 48                    method should touch these).
 49            

 50 mike  1.2      (A) Notice that there is a bug where you select Scope::REFERENCE and
 51            	and the validation routines still say the scope is wrong for
 52            	qualifiers applied actual references (they are checking for
 53            	property instead).
 54            
 55                (A) There is an odering problem when applying the qualifiers with
 56                	association scope to classes. If the association qualifier does not
 57            	come first, then application of prior qualifiers fail.
 58            	Checking this should be moved to class resolution.
 59            

 60 mike  1.1      (A) Implement instances.
 61            
 62                (A) Providers.
 63            
 64                ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 65            
 66                (B) Finish other CIM/HTTP protocol operations.
 67            
 68                (B) Use the description that comes back with an error code in the XML
 69                	protocol. Perhaps it should become an extra message field of
 70            	XmlException.
 71            
 72                (B) Source documentation.
 73            
 74                (B) Put README in each directory.
 75            
 76                (B) Handle UCS2 characters in XML (parsing and writing).
 77            
 78                (B) Check for overflow on the number of attributes in XML.
 79            
 80                (B) Handle PARAMETER.REFARRAY in XML.
 81 mike  1.1  
 82                (B) Add validNamespace() method and use it.

 84                ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 85            
 86                (C) Suppress error message printed by ACE caused by constructing an 
 87                    address from a non existent host.
 88            
 89                (C) Ignore extraneous XML elements (loosely valid).
 90            
 91                (C) Get rid of fullyQualified flag.
 92            
 93                (C) Handling of hexadecimal integer values.
 94            
 95                (C) VALUE.REFERENCE within INSTANCENAME and KEYBINDING.
 96            
 97                (C) Resolve whether MOF is a requirement.
 98            
 99                (C) Handle case sensitivity of CIM identifiers.
100            
101                (C) Figure out how to handle CIM null values.
102 mike  1.1  
103                (C) Make iteration scheme more general.
104            
105                (C) Develop XML repository importation mechanism.
106            
107                (C) Move internal headers to ./internal directory
108            
109                (C) Split up XxxRep objects from Xxx objects.
110            
111                (C) Handle case insentive requirement on repository file names.
112            
113                (C) Devise a way to detect whether a class has instances.
114            
115                (C) Cleanup of execeptions.
116            
117                (C) Verify that fixed length arrays are properly handled.
118            
119                (C) Check for null string pointers in String class.
120            
121                (C) Verify that instances are property keyed (during validation).
122            
123 mike  1.1      (C) Thread safety.
124

130            
131                (C) Provide conversion between DateTime and time_t.
