16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up

all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.

17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager

to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and

indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances

operations.

Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.

18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the

definition of CIMFlavors.

19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to

eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the

nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at

each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there

are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top

level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message

"body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.

The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML

payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the

HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be

constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to

remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional

changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class

would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in

a single buffer.

Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML

formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,

error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the

various encoders and decoders, etc.

20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the

CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate

that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent

with what is encoded in the XML request itself.

Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,

CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are

validated.

21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in

qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the

Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.

22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.

Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:

Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;

HTTPConnector* connector;

connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);

Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional

CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);

With this change, the client application now looks like:

Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional

CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);

The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector

constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a

connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL

context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient

connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and

without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector

class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method

rather than in the constructor.

NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this

change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and

included in the Pegasus build.

23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field

of fixed length arrays to be lost.
