  2 mike  1.1 				TO-DO List
  3           				==========
  4           

  5 mike  1.18     - 	The TCPChannel::writeN() method blocks when the client and server
  6            	are in the same process. That is because the client cannot read
  7            	anything as long as writeN() is blocked on a synchronous write.

  8 mike  1.17 

  9 mike  1.18     - 	Should ChannelHandler::handleOpen() do the registration with the
 10                  	selector?

 11 mike  1.16 

 12 mike  1.18     - 	Figure out how to handle getProperty() return type.

 13 mike  1.10 

 14 mike  1.18     - 	Having problems with reference on Repository::createInstance() and
 15                  	Repository::getInstance(). References not always in standard form.
 16                  	Also, resolve() fails when instance has properties of difference
 17                  	case.

 18 mike  1.15 

 19 mike  1.18     - 	Super class name does not seem to be set in enumerateClasses 
 20            	operation.

 21 mike  1.6  
 22                ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 23 mike  1.15 
 24                -	Remove "std::" qualifiers and use a macro and use #define for
 25            	PEGASUS_NAMESPACE_STD.

 26 mike  1.6  

 27 mike  1.14     -  	Change getLength() to length() or size()?
 28            
 29                -  	Change find<Object> to find<Object>ByIndex().
 30            
 31                -	Need get by name.
 32            

 33 mike  1.6      Now:
 34            

 35 mike  1.12     -	Add convenience functions: addProperty().

 36 mike  1.11     -	Change CimException to CIMException
 37                -   Get ACE working on Tandem (or remove ACE from Pegasus).
 38                -   Port Pegasus to Tandem (look for Tandem machine at BMC).
 39                -   Instance repository.

 40 mike  1.13     -	Delete namespace.

 41 mike  1.11     -   Finalize provider interface.
 42                -   Associations (basic).
 43                -   Provider registration (by the standard).
 44                -   MOF compiler (finalize).
 45                -   Write short paper on Pegasus data objects.
 46                -   Integrate DOC++ with make system.
 47                -   Compaq requested SQL level-1 description.
 48                -   Get rid of ACE (required if no ACE on Tandem).
 49                -   Need query capability for Compaq.
 50                -   Threading (and process forking).
 51                -   Implement protocol module (the default uses ACE).
 52                -	Package up pegasus in Install Shield application.

 53 mike  1.6  
 54            

 55 mike  1.1      ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 56 mike  1.12 
 57                (A) Install shield install of Pegasus.

 58 mike  1.1  

 59 mike  1.8      (A)	Handle escaping of strings inside object names. Example:
 60            
 61                		X.key1="Hello \"You\""
 62            

 63 mike  1.2      (A) Notice that there is a bug where you select Scope::REFERENCE and
 64            	and the validation routines still say the scope is wrong for
 65            	qualifiers applied actual references (they are checking for
 66            	property instead).
 67            
 68                (A) There is an odering problem when applying the qualifiers with
 69                	association scope to classes. If the association qualifier does not
 70            	come first, then application of prior qualifiers fail.
 71            	Checking this should be moved to class resolution.
 72            

 73 mike  1.13     ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 74 mike  1.1  

 75 mike  1.13     (B) Hide setPropagated() and setClassOrigin() methods (only the resolve
 76                    method should touch these).

 77 mike  1.1  

 78 mike  1.13     (B) Change make system to rename dll's before link so that they
 79            	can be used by the server.

 80 mike  1.1  
 81                (B) Finish other CIM/HTTP protocol operations.
 82            
 83                (B) Use the description that comes back with an error code in the XML
 84                	protocol. Perhaps it should become an extra message field of
 85            	XmlException.
 86            
 87                (B) Source documentation.
 88            
 89                (B) Put README in each directory.
 90            
 91                (B) Handle UCS2 characters in XML (parsing and writing).
 92            
 93                (B) Check for overflow on the number of attributes in XML.
 94            
 95                (B) Handle PARAMETER.REFARRAY in XML.
 96            
 97                (B) Add validNamespace() method and use it.
 98            
 99                ------------------------------------------------------------------------
100            
101 mike  1.1      (C) Suppress error message printed by ACE caused by constructing an 
102                    address from a non existent host.
103            
104                (C) Ignore extraneous XML elements (loosely valid).
105            
106                (C) Get rid of fullyQualified flag.
107            
108                (C) Handling of hexadecimal integer values.
109            
110                (C) VALUE.REFERENCE within INSTANCENAME and KEYBINDING.
111            
112                (C) Resolve whether MOF is a requirement.
113            
114                (C) Handle case sensitivity of CIM identifiers.
115            
116                (C) Figure out how to handle CIM null values.
117            
118                (C) Make iteration scheme more general.
119            
120                (C) Develop XML repository importation mechanism.
121            
122 mike  1.1      (C) Move internal headers to ./internal directory
123            
124                (C) Split up XxxRep objects from Xxx objects.
125            
126                (C) Handle case insentive requirement on repository file names.
127            
128                (C) Devise a way to detect whether a class has instances.
129            
130                (C) Cleanup of execeptions.
131            
132                (C) Verify that fixed length arrays are properly handled.
133            
134                (C) Check for null string pointers in String class.
135            
136                (C) Verify that instances are property keyed (during validation).
137            
138                (C) Thread safety.
139            
140                (C) Use UTF8 for strings.
141            
142                (C) Shrink object sizes.
143 mike  1.1  
144                (C) Use lighter I/O system (get rid of C++ streams).
145            
146                (C) Provide conversion between DateTime and time_t.
147            
148                (C) Purify source.
149            
150                (C) Improve the representation of fixed arrays (is that pesky fixed-array
151                  	flag really necessary?)

152 mike  1.13 
153                (C)	Modify clear() methods on Array and String so that they don't
154            	release the old resource (more efficient for GetLine()). Add
155            	a resize() method.
