 CHANGE LOG FOR PEGASUS CHANGE LOG FOR PEGASUS
  
 Version 1.1.1 - 3 August 2001 -  Development Branch (Work in Progress)  
                 current working dev branch of build  
   
 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be  
         seen as part of CGIclient class displays.  
   
 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version  
         to the final version in Schemas\CIM25.  This included minor  
         corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the  
         official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF.  This change  
         should not affect any current work.  
 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas  
         directorys.  Note however that today the make repository still  
         loads the 2.5 schema.  
   
 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers  
         on XML output.  
   
 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem  
 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,  
 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp).  aCC scopes variable  
 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple  
 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.  
   
 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove  
 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the  
 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files  
 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that  
 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config  
 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified  
 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI  
 to show user friendly error/status messages.  
   
 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI  
 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).  
 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in  
 generating debug output.  
   
 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in  
 xml when it generates xml output.  
   
 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into  
 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default  
 repository implementation.  
   
 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.  
   
 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.  
   
 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.  
   
 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.  
   
 14. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 21 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug that was creating an empty file when trace was not enabled. Changed the Tracer test program's executable file name to TracerTest instead of Tracer.  
   
 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.  
     CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.  
   
 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.  
   
 17. (Jim Chou - HP) 12 Sep 2001 - Initial contribution of wbemexec test directory and make infrastructure.  This submittal also includes an initial set of test scripts.  
   
 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.  
   
 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server  
     interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with  
     a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.  
   
 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files  
     CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML  
     input and output can be written in a trace file.  
   
 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support  
     Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and  
     deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).  
   
 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and ExportClient  
     to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample consumer is added which  
     will consume (by displaying on screen) the indication exported by  
     CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete implementation is based on  
     CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp  
     and Message.h files are modified to implement above messages.  
   
     XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete operation.  
     It now creates a consumer, handler and indication instance and then calls  
     CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the indication to consumer. This  
     program needs src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof  
     and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded in the repository  
     to complete the test successfully. This test program also needs Handler qualifier  
     defined in repository and modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP  
     class as below:  
   
     //====================================================================  
     //  CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP  
     //====================================================================  
     [Description (  
       "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "  
       "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "  
       "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]  
   
 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in  
     ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading  
     a provider library.  
   
 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod interface for the  
     provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as type for inParameters and  
     outParameters, which are unable to give information about param name, type and value.  
     This should be changed to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of  
     the parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod call.  
     Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while travelling through message  
     queues and converts it back to array of CIMValue before calling Provider API (which  
     needs to be changed later).  
   
     Also added are two test programs:  
   
     src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of CIMParamValue class.  
   
     src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to InvokeMethod and  
     displays the return value. Current implementation assumes that provider had returned  
     true value and outParameters (which are now hard coded in CIMOperationRequestDispatcher  
     to implement functionality) which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.  
   
 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of  
     authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager and  
     authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication module has  
     been modified to implement the local authenticator interface, to generate  
     the challenge for the unauthorized requests and to verify the authentication.  
     A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator. This code is  
     in the Security/Authentication directory which is not yet linked into the build.  
   
 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export Decoders. Earlier  
     decoders were sending requests and responses before finishing complete Xml parse.  
     This was prone to send request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.  
     New changes collects the Message* as return value from the appropriate functions  
     while parsing the Xml and sends on _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.  
   
 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to fix the problem with  
     constructing provider name and loading the providers for unix platforms. Also moved  
     the shared library name construction (appending .sl or .so) from  
     CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to ProviderModule.cpp and included  
     it in a method that returns provider file path name.

 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch  Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
               Tagged as version_1_01 on 3 August 2001 (sorry should have been  
               1.1  
   
 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver  
    indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler  
    and ExportClient classes. the indication.  
   
    Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to  
    make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.  
   
    Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and  
    SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.  
   
 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading  
    library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined  
    are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler  
    and SimpleThread.  
   
 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP)  Implementation of wbemexec CLI.  Please refer  
    to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more  
    information on using wbemexec.  A simple test script is included.  Please  
    see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running  
    the test script.  
  
 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP)  Implementation of Trace Framework.  Please  1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
    refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf     PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
    and  
    src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using  
    the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and  
    src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.  
   
 5. (Nag Boranna - HP)  Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and  
    Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation  
    in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page  
    in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on  
    using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config  
    mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script  
    is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for  
    information on running the test script.  
   
 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects  
    (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These  
    functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.  
   
 7. (Bapu Patil - HP)  Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local  
    Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients  
    that  
    connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a  
    password.  
    Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.  
    This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main  
    build.  
    When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be  
    modified to integrate with the framework.  
  
 8. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Removed the ltoa() function call from Tracer.cpp.  2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
    Added a constant to define the maximum length of uint32.  
   3. (Mike Brasher) Implemented sample WebClient and WebServer application
      to test new scheme.
