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

  5 mike  1.20     - 	Finalize the headers (put authors in all the modules).
  6            

  7 mike  1.19     -   Fix the trace function so that it prints out the messages going
  8            	both ways.
  9            

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

 13 mike  1.17 

 14 mike  1.18     - 	Should ChannelHandler::handleOpen() do the registration with the
 15                  	selector?

 16 mike  1.16 

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

 18 mike  1.10 

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

 23 mike  1.15 

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

 26 mike  1.6  
 27                ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 28 mike  1.15 
 29                -	Remove "std::" qualifiers and use a macro and use #define for
 30            	PEGASUS_NAMESPACE_STD.

 31 mike  1.6  

 32 mike  1.14     -  	Change getLength() to length() or size()?
 33            
 34                -  	Change find<Object> to find<Object>ByIndex().
 35            
 36                -	Need get by name.
 37            

 38 mike  1.6      Now:
 39            

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

 41 mike  1.11     -	Change CimException to CIMException
 42                -   Get ACE working on Tandem (or remove ACE from Pegasus).
 43                -   Port Pegasus to Tandem (look for Tandem machine at BMC).
 44                -   Instance repository.

 45 mike  1.13     -	Delete namespace.

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

 58 mike  1.6  
 59            

 60 mike  1.1      ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 61 mike  1.12 
 62                (A) Install shield install of Pegasus.

 63 mike  1.1  

 64 mike  1.8      (A)	Handle escaping of strings inside object names. Example:
 65            
 66                		X.key1="Hello \"You\""
 67            

 68 mike  1.2      (A) Notice that there is a bug where you select Scope::REFERENCE and
 69            	and the validation routines still say the scope is wrong for
 70            	qualifiers applied actual references (they are checking for
 71            	property instead).
 72            
 73                (A) There is an odering problem when applying the qualifiers with
 74                	association scope to classes. If the association qualifier does not
 75            	come first, then application of prior qualifiers fail.
 76            	Checking this should be moved to class resolution.
 77            

 78 mike  1.13     ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 79 mike  1.1  

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

 82 mike  1.1  

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

 85 mike  1.1  
 86                (B) Finish other CIM/HTTP protocol operations.
 87            
 88                (B) Use the description that comes back with an error code in the XML
 89                	protocol. Perhaps it should become an extra message field of
 90            	XmlException.
 91            
 92                (B) Source documentation.
 93            
 94                (B) Put README in each directory.
 95            
 96                (B) Handle UCS2 characters in XML (parsing and writing).
 97            
 98                (B) Check for overflow on the number of attributes in XML.
 99            
100                (B) Handle PARAMETER.REFARRAY in XML.
101            
102                (B) Add validNamespace() method and use it.
103            
104                ------------------------------------------------------------------------
105            
106 mike  1.1      (C) Suppress error message printed by ACE caused by constructing an 
107                    address from a non existent host.
108            
109                (C) Ignore extraneous XML elements (loosely valid).
110            
111                (C) Get rid of fullyQualified flag.
112            
113                (C) Handling of hexadecimal integer values.
114            
115                (C) VALUE.REFERENCE within INSTANCENAME and KEYBINDING.
116            
117                (C) Resolve whether MOF is a requirement.
118            
119                (C) Handle case sensitivity of CIM identifiers.
120            
121                (C) Figure out how to handle CIM null values.
122            
123                (C) Make iteration scheme more general.
124            
125                (C) Develop XML repository importation mechanism.
126            
127 mike  1.1      (C) Move internal headers to ./internal directory
128            
129                (C) Split up XxxRep objects from Xxx objects.
130            
131                (C) Handle case insentive requirement on repository file names.
132            
133                (C) Devise a way to detect whether a class has instances.
134            
135                (C) Cleanup of execeptions.
136            
137                (C) Verify that fixed length arrays are properly handled.
138            
139                (C) Check for null string pointers in String class.
140            
141                (C) Verify that instances are property keyed (during validation).
142            
143                (C) Thread safety.
144            
145                (C) Use UTF8 for strings.
146            
147                (C) Shrink object sizes.
148 mike  1.1  
149                (C) Use lighter I/O system (get rid of C++ streams).
150            
151                (C) Provide conversion between DateTime and time_t.
152            
153                (C) Purify source.
154            
155                (C) Improve the representation of fixed arrays (is that pesky fixed-array
156                  	flag really necessary?)

157 mike  1.13 
158                (C)	Modify clear() methods on Array and String so that they don't
159            	release the old resource (more efficient for GetLine()). Add
160            	a resize() method.
