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

  5 mike  1.23     - 	Propagate error messages back in CIM/HTTP requests (right now the
  6            	static error messages are propagated; it would be nice to have
  7            	the original error string to give more information).
  8            

  9 mike  1.22     -	Be sure that namespaces are limited to be CIM names (as given in
 10            	Names.h).
 11            

 12 mike  1.21     -	Remove jdaux.exe from CVS repository.
 13            

 14 mike  1.20     - 	Finalize the headers (put authors in all the modules).
 15            

 16 mike  1.19     -   Fix the trace function so that it prints out the messages going
 17            	both ways.
 18            

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

 22 mike  1.16 

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

 24 mike  1.10 

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

 29 mike  1.15 

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

 32 mike  1.6  
 33                ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 34 mike  1.15 
 35                -	Remove "std::" qualifiers and use a macro and use #define for
 36            	PEGASUS_NAMESPACE_STD.

 37 mike  1.6  

 38 mike  1.14     -  	Change getLength() to length() or size()?
 39            
 40                -  	Change find<Object> to find<Object>ByIndex().
 41            
 42                -	Need get by name.
 43            

 44 mike  1.6      Now:
 45            

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

 47 mike  1.11     -	Change CimException to CIMException
 48                -   Get ACE working on Tandem (or remove ACE from Pegasus).
 49                -   Port Pegasus to Tandem (look for Tandem machine at BMC).
 50                -   Instance repository.

 51 mike  1.13     -	Delete namespace.

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

 64 mike  1.6  
 65            

 66 mike  1.1      ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 67 mike  1.12 
 68                (A) Install shield install of Pegasus.

 69 mike  1.1  

 70 mike  1.8      (A)	Handle escaping of strings inside object names. Example:
 71            
 72                		X.key1="Hello \"You\""
 73            

 74 mike  1.2      (A) Notice that there is a bug where you select Scope::REFERENCE and
 75            	and the validation routines still say the scope is wrong for
 76            	qualifiers applied actual references (they are checking for
 77            	property instead).
 78            
 79                (A) There is an odering problem when applying the qualifiers with
 80                	association scope to classes. If the association qualifier does not
 81            	come first, then application of prior qualifiers fail.
 82            	Checking this should be moved to class resolution.
 83            

 84 mike  1.13     ------------------------------------------------------------------------

 85 mike  1.1  

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

 88 mike  1.1  

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

 91 mike  1.1  
 92                (B) Finish other CIM/HTTP protocol operations.
 93            
 94                (B) Use the description that comes back with an error code in the XML
 95                	protocol. Perhaps it should become an extra message field of
 96            	XmlException.
 97            
 98                (B) Source documentation.
 99            
100                (B) Put README in each directory.
101            
102                (B) Handle UCS2 characters in XML (parsing and writing).
103            
104                (B) Check for overflow on the number of attributes in XML.
105            
106                (B) Handle PARAMETER.REFARRAY in XML.
107            
108                (B) Add validNamespace() method and use it.
109            
110                ------------------------------------------------------------------------
111            
112 mike  1.1      (C) Suppress error message printed by ACE caused by constructing an 
113                    address from a non existent host.
114            
115                (C) Ignore extraneous XML elements (loosely valid).
116            
117                (C) Get rid of fullyQualified flag.
118            
119                (C) Handling of hexadecimal integer values.
120            
121                (C) VALUE.REFERENCE within INSTANCENAME and KEYBINDING.
122            
123                (C) Resolve whether MOF is a requirement.
124            
125                (C) Handle case sensitivity of CIM identifiers.
126            
127                (C) Figure out how to handle CIM null values.
128            
129                (C) Make iteration scheme more general.
130            
131                (C) Develop XML repository importation mechanism.
132            
133 mike  1.1      (C) Move internal headers to ./internal directory
134            
135                (C) Split up XxxRep objects from Xxx objects.
136            
137                (C) Handle case insentive requirement on repository file names.
138            
139                (C) Devise a way to detect whether a class has instances.
140            
141                (C) Cleanup of execeptions.
142            
143                (C) Verify that fixed length arrays are properly handled.
144            
145                (C) Check for null string pointers in String class.
146            
147                (C) Verify that instances are property keyed (during validation).
148            
149                (C) Thread safety.
150            
151                (C) Use UTF8 for strings.
152            
153                (C) Shrink object sizes.
154 mike  1.1  
155                (C) Use lighter I/O system (get rid of C++ streams).
156            
157                (C) Provide conversion between DateTime and time_t.
158            
159                (C) Purify source.
160            
161                (C) Improve the representation of fixed arrays (is that pesky fixed-array
162                  	flag really necessary?)

163 mike  1.13 
164                (C)	Modify clear() methods on Array and String so that they don't
165            	release the old resource (more efficient for GetLine()). Add
166            	a resize() method.
