  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  1.12     -	Add convenience functions: addProperty().

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

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

 36 mike  1.12 
 37                (A) Install shield install of Pegasus.

 38 mike  1.1  

 39 mike  1.8      (A)	Modify clear() methods on Array and String so that they don't
 40            	release the old resource (more efficient for GetLine()). Add
 41            	a resize() method.
 42            
 43                (A)	Handle escaping of strings inside object names. Example:
 44            
 45                		X.key1="Hello \"You\""
 46            

 47 mike  1.4      (A) Change make system to rename dll's before link so that they
 48            	can be used by the server.
 49            

 50 mike  1.3      (A) Hide setPropagated() and setClassOrigin() methods (only the resolve
 51                    method should touch these).
 52            

 53 mike  1.2      (A) Notice that there is a bug where you select Scope::REFERENCE and
 54            	and the validation routines still say the scope is wrong for
 55            	qualifiers applied actual references (they are checking for
 56            	property instead).
 57            
 58                (A) There is an odering problem when applying the qualifiers with
 59                	association scope to classes. If the association qualifier does not
 60            	come first, then application of prior qualifiers fail.
 61            	Checking this should be moved to class resolution.
 62            

 63 mike  1.1      (A) Implement instances.
 64            
 65                (A) Providers.
 66            
 67                ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 68            
 69                (B) Finish other CIM/HTTP protocol operations.
 70            
 71                (B) Use the description that comes back with an error code in the XML
 72                	protocol. Perhaps it should become an extra message field of
 73            	XmlException.
 74            
 75                (B) Source documentation.
 76            
 77                (B) Put README in each directory.
 78            
 79                (B) Handle UCS2 characters in XML (parsing and writing).
 80            
 81                (B) Check for overflow on the number of attributes in XML.
 82            
 83                (B) Handle PARAMETER.REFARRAY in XML.
 84 mike  1.1  
 85                (B) Add validNamespace() method and use it.
 86            
 87                ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 88            
 89                (C) Suppress error message printed by ACE caused by constructing an 
 90                    address from a non existent host.
 91            
 92                (C) Ignore extraneous XML elements (loosely valid).
 93            
 94                (C) Get rid of fullyQualified flag.
 95            
 96                (C) Handling of hexadecimal integer values.
 97            
 98                (C) VALUE.REFERENCE within INSTANCENAME and KEYBINDING.
 99            
100                (C) Resolve whether MOF is a requirement.
101            
102                (C) Handle case sensitivity of CIM identifiers.
103            
104                (C) Figure out how to handle CIM null values.
105 mike  1.1  
106                (C) Make iteration scheme more general.
107            
108                (C) Develop XML repository importation mechanism.
109            
110                (C) Move internal headers to ./internal directory
111            
112                (C) Split up XxxRep objects from Xxx objects.
113            
114                (C) Handle case insentive requirement on repository file names.
115            
116                (C) Devise a way to detect whether a class has instances.
117            
118                (C) Cleanup of execeptions.
119            
120                (C) Verify that fixed length arrays are properly handled.
121            
122                (C) Check for null string pointers in String class.
123            
124                (C) Verify that instances are property keyed (during validation).
125            
126 mike  1.1      (C) Thread safety.
127            
128                (C) Use UTF8 for strings.
129

131            
132                (C) Use lighter I/O system (get rid of C++ streams).
133            
134                (C) Provide conversion between DateTime and time_t.
135

138                (C) Improve the representation of fixed arrays (is that pesky fixed-array
139                  	flag really necessary?)
