new WbemExecClient interface based on HTTPConnection instead of the

obsolete Channel code. Also add SSL option to wbemexec.

31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Apr 2002 - Added copy constructors to the

CIMMessage subclasses.

32. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 27 Apr 2002 - Fixed several defects

in MOF compiler associated with the handling the initialization

of array values.

33. (KS) 30 April 2002 - Added Namespace Control Provider. Note that it is

not completely tested today and only enumeratenames is guaranteed.

34. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 6 May 2002 - Reworked the String class. Fixed the

places where StrLen() was reading off the end of arrays. Removed the

Cat() functions. Moved Open(), OpenAppend(), and GetLine() functions

to the FileSystem module. Removed the EmptyStringArray() method.

Moved method implementations from header file to source file. Marked

the _CString class for internal use only.

35. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 9 May 2002 - Updated the Logger to log to

syslog on the HP-UX platform.

36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 9 May 2002 - Fixed the method

CIMDateTime::getCurrentDateTime() to return local time instead of UTC.

Updated the CIMDateTime::getDifference() method to compute the difference

between two local times. Also updated the getDifference to compute the

difference between two intervals.

37. (Mary Hinton) 10 May 2002 - Fixed the problem in the new version of

pegasus_gettimeofday(struct timeval *tv)function for the Windows

platform. The new implementation was implemented for higher resolution

for performance statistics. However, it was causing an intermittent

hang in the ThreadPool test on the Windows platform.When (long int)

is changed to (__int64), the tv_usec variable of timeval struct has

the correct value.

38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 13 May 2002 - To eliminate the possibility of

collisions (and subsequent corruption) when different threads

concurrently update the ArrayRep reference count, I added a Mutex

to the ArrayRep structure. This Mutex gets locked in the inc()

and dec() methods that manage the reference count.

After adding the Mutex, the "mysterious" memory problems seemed to clear

up. This seems like a very good thing. However, note that the addition

of the Mutex adversely affects performance (nearly 2:1). I tried using

an AtomicInt for the reference count, but that seemed to yield even worse

performance on my system.

Anyone should feel free to optimize the performance of the locking in

the ArrayRep structure. Since I believe this locking is required for

proper operation, I've added the Mutex for all platforms. Note that I

had to comment out the assert statements in internal_dq.h to avoid a

circular header file dependency (Array.h->IPC.h->internal_dq.h->

Exception.h->String.h->Array.h).

39. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 13 May 2002 - Removed operator int() methods from

all CIM* classes. These methods had been causing a number of difficult

to find defects, including the use of the wrong versions of the methods

in Memory.h by the Array template (leading to major memory leaks).

In general, it is dangerous to define a casting operator method that

loses so much information, because the compiler will apply the cast

at will in an effort to match types. I've replaced all instances of

the int cast operator with isNull() methods.

40. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 May 2002 - HP-Nag: Added SSL Certificate verification

code in TLS.cpp, created a new class CertificateInfo to pass certificate

information to the client's call back function. Modified CIMServer.cpp and

the Command lines that are using SSLContext to pass a call back function.

Fixed few display messages in CIMConfigCommand.cpp to show meaningfule

messages when CIM server is not running.

41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 May 2002 - Moved CIM*::toXml() methods to

XmlWriter::append*Element(). Moved CIM*::print() methods to

XmlWriter::print*Element(). Putting this function in XmlWriter

instead of the CIM* classes keeps those internal methods out of

the published client and provider APIs.
