8 kumpf 1.96 2. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Apr 2002 - Modified the CIMOperationResponseMessage
9 class and its subclasses to contain a CIMException instead of a
10 CIMStatusCode and String description. This allows extra information in
11 a CIMException, such as file name and line number, to be carried
12 internally throughout the system.
13
14 This change creates a single place where CIMExceptions are converted
15 to an error code and description to be written out in XML. This
16 single place controls the ability to tune what gets included in the
17 error description, as well as providing a convenient place to trace
18 errors that get returned to clients. In particular, client applications
19 currently see messages that contain redundant error code information,
20 such as:
21
22 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One or more parameter values passed
23 to the method were invalid: "CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One
24 or more parameter values passed to the method were invalid:
25 "Unrecognized parameter "Bogus"""
26
27 The CIMOperationResponseMessage change will allow the redundant
28 information to be eliminated from the messages.

30 3. (KS) 7 April 2002- Minor really bad hack to systemwindows.cpp getcurrenttime
31 after roger fixed timevalue.
|
32 kumpf 1.96
|
33 kumpf 1.98 4. (DME) 7 April 2002 Added support for HPUX running on IA64 hardware.
34
|
35 kumpf 1.99 5. (DME) 7 April 2002 Update master result file for MOF Compiler CLI tests.
|
36 kumpf 1.100 Update master result file of wbemexec CLI tests.
|
37 kumpf 1.99
|
38 ramnath 1.101 6. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 8 Apr 2002 - Modified a libraries.mak file in the src/Pegasus/Security/Authentication/tests directory in order to fix the
39 build on Tru64.
40
|
41 kumpf 1.102 7. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Apr 2002 - The RETURNVALUE and IRETURNVALUE elements
42 of the XML encoding of operation responses had been treated as mandatory.
43 The client response decoder has been updated to make those elements
44 optional for operations that do not require a return value. The server
45 response encoder has been updated not to include those elements when the
46 request does not include a return value.
47
|
48 kumpf 1.103 8. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 9 Apr 2002 - Updated the Instance, Association, and
49 Class provider interfaces to use CIMPropertyList instead of Array<String>
50 for the propertyList parameters. All providers that implement a method
51 with a propertyList parameter must be modified in accordance with this
52 change. All providers linked into the Pegasus build have been updated.
53
|
54 kumpf 1.104 8. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTP error message to be
55 returned to the CIMClient when an HTTP error response is returned.
56 Added a method to parse the status line of an HTTP response.

59
|
60 karl 1.93 Version 1.08 working towards 1.1 - Started 27 March 2002
|
61 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because
62 of problems with the CVS repository
|
63 karl 1.93
|
64 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
|
65 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08.
66
|
67 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass,
68 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.

70 karl 1.59
71 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
72 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
73 TAG: VERSION_1_07
74
75 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
76
|
77 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
78 karl 1.59
|
79 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
80 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
81 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
82 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
83 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
84 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
85 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
86
87 For more information look in to the following files:
88 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
89 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
90 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
91 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
92
93 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
94 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
95 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
96 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
97 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
98 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
99 karl 1.63
|
100 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
101 karl 1.62
|
102 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
103 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
104
|
105 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
106 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
107 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
108 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
109 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
110
|
111 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
112 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
113 will be deleted.
114
|
115 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
116
117 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
118 karl 1.66
|
119 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
120 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
121 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
122 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
123 for remote clients.
|
124 karl 1.66
|
125 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
126 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
127 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
128 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
129 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
130 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
131 values.
132
133 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
134
135 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
136 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
137 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
138 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
139 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
140 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
141
142 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
143 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
144 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
145 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
146 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
147 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
148 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
149 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
150 specified in the method definition.
151
152 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
153
154 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
155 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
156 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
157 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
158 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
159 correct type rather than as a String.
160
161 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
162 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
163 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
164 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
165 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
166 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
167 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
168
169 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
170 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
171 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
172
173 SIDE EFFECTS:
174
175 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
176 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
177 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
178 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
179 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
180
181 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
182 clean-up, which I completed.
183
184 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
185
186 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
187 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
188 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
189 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
190 the specified value to that property's type.
191
192 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
193 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
194 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
195 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
196
197 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
198 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
199 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
200 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
201 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
202 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
203
|
204 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
205 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
206 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
207 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
208 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
209 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
210 encoding of parameter values.
211
212 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
213 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
214 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
215 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
216 have defaulted to String type.
|
217 karl 1.70
218 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
219 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
|
220 karl 1.72
|
221 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
222 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
223 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
224 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
225 the server.
|
226 karl 1.72
227 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
228 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
229
|
230 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
231 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
232 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
233 operations.
234
235 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
236 karl 1.74
237 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
238 definition of CIMFlavors.
|
239 karl 1.76
|
240 kumpf 1.68
|
241 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
242 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
243 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
244 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
245 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
246 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
247 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
248
249 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
250 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
251 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
252 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
253 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
254 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
255 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
256 a single buffer.
257
258 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
259 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
260 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
261 various encoders and decoders, etc.
262 kumpf 1.75
263 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
264 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
265 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
266 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
267
268 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
269 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
270 validated.
|
271 karl 1.76
272 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
273 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
274 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
|
275 karl 1.78
|
276 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
277 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
278
279 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
280 HTTPConnector* connector;
281 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
282 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
283
284 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
285
286 With this change, the client application now looks like:
287
288 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
289
290 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
291
292 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
293 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
294 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
295 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
296 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
297 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
298 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
299 rather than in the constructor.
300
301 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
302 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
303 included in the Pegasus build.
|
304 kumpf 1.79
|
305 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
306 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
307 kumpf 1.75
|
308 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
309 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
310 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
311 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
312 for that purpose.
313
314 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
315
316 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
317 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
318 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
319 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
320 line number of the CIMException originator.
321
322 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
323
324 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
325 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
326 input and writes the String to the trace file.
327
328 (ex.)
329 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
330 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
331
332 or use the following new macro:
333 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
334
|
335 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
336 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
337 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
338 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
339 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
340 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
341 ramnath 1.81
342 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
343 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
344 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
345 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
346 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
347 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
348 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
349 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
350 ramnath 1.80
|
351 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
352 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
353 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
354 in the Windows service work thread.
355
|
356 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
357 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
358 executable
359
360 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
361 executable.
|
362 kumpf 1.84
363 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
364 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
365 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
366 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
367 an integer of the specified size.
368
|
369 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
370 in XmlReader.cpp.
371
|
372 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
373 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
374 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
375 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
376
|
377 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
378 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
379 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
380 karl 1.88
381 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
382 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
383
|
384 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
385 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
386 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
387 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
388 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
389 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
390 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
391 linked into the server.
|
392 karl 1.88
|
393 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
394 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
395 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
396
|
397 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
398 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
399 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
400 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
401 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
402 karl 1.92
403 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
404 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
405 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.
406

407 kumpf 1.91
|
408 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
409 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
410
411 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
412 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
413 may temporarily be in side branches.
414 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
415 karl 1.53
416 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
417 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
418 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
419 which is the current file based repository.
420
421 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
422 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
423 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
424 in the future.
|
425 karl 1.52
|
426 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
427 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
428 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
429 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
430 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
431 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
432
|
433 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
434 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
435 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
436 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
437 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
438 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
439
|
440 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it

441 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
442 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
443 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
444 program.

446 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
447 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
448 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
449 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
450 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
451 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
452 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
453 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
454 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
455
456 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
457 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
458 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
459
460 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
461 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
462 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
463 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
464
465 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
466 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
467 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
468 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
469
470 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
471 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
472
473 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

482
|
483 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
484 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
485
486 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
487 mike 1.51 =======
488 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
489 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
490
491 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
492 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
493 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
494 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
495 should not affect any current work.
496 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
497 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
498 loads the 2.5 schema.
499
500 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
501 on XML output.
502
503 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
504 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
505 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
506 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
507 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
508 mike 1.51
509 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
510 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
511 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
512 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
513 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
514 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
515 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
516 to show user friendly error/status messages.
517
518 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
519 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
520 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
521 generating debug output.
522
523 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
524 xml when it generates xml output.
525
526 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
527 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
528 repository implementation.
529 mike 1.51
530 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
531
532 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
533
534 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
535
536 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
537
538 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.
539
540 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
541 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
542
543 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
544
545 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.
546
547 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
548
549 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
550 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
551 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
552
553 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
554 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
555 input and output can be written in a trace file.
556
557 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
558 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
559 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
560
561 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
562 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
563 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
564 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
565 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
566 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
567 are modified to implement above messages.
568
569 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
570 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
571 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
572 indication to consumer. This program needs
573 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
574 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
575 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
576 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
577 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
578 below:
579
580 //====================================================================
581 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
582 //====================================================================
583 [Description (
584 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
585 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
586 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
587
588 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
589 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
590 a provider library.
591
592 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
593 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
594 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
595 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
596 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
597 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
598 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
599 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
600 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
601 later).
602
603 Also added are two test programs:
604
605 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
606 CIMParamValue class.
607
608 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
609 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
610 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
611 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
612 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
613 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
614
615 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
616 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
617 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
618 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
619 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
620 and to verify the authentication.
621
622 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
623 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
624 yet linked into the build.
625
626 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
627 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
628 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
629 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
630 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
631 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
632 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
633
634 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
635 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
636 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
637 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
638 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
639 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
640 provider file path name.
641
642 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
643 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
644 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
645 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
646 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
647 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
648 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
649 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
650
651 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
652 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
653 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
654 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
655 mike 1.51
656 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
657 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
658 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
659 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
660
661 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
662 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
663 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
664 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
665 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
666 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
667 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
668 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
669 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
670
671 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
672 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
673
674 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
675
676 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
677 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
678 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
679 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
680 in make files.
681
682 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
683 because getting an error in 26
684
685 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
686 whose types are references. These reference values must be
687 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
688 tag structure.
689
690 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
691 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
692 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
693
694 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
695 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
696 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
697 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
698 of String type and a key of reference type.
699
700 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
701 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
702 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
703 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
704 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
705 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
706 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
707 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
708
709 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
710 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
711 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
712 reference type.
713
714 In this example:
715
716 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
717
718 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
719 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
720 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
721 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
722 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
723
724 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
725 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
726 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
727 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
728 correctly.
729
730 The files that have been modified to make this change are
731 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
732
733 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
734 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
735 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
736 CIMOM version.
737
738 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
739 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
740 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
741 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
742 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
743 definition to determine the key property types.
744
745 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
746 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
747 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
748 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
749
750 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
751 (instanceName).
752
753 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
754 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
755 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
756 relevant intrinsic methods.
757
758 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
759 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
760 mike 1.51
761 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
762 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
763 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
764 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
765 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
766 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
767 nsk platform links.
768
769 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
770 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
771 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
772 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
773 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
774 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
775 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
776
777 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
778 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
779 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
780 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
781 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
782 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
783 in that same form, without special character encoding.
784
785 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
786 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
787 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
788 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
789
790 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
791 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
792 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
793 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
794 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
795
796 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
797 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
798 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
799 be updated to use this class.
800
801 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
802 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
803 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
804 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
805 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
806
807 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
808 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
809 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
810 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
811 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
812 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
813
814 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
815
816 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
817 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
818 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
819 CIMNamedInstance
820 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
821 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
822 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
823 mike 1.51
824 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
825
826 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
827 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
828 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
829 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
830 functionality.
831
832 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
833
834 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
835 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
836 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
837 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
838 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
839 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
840 the entire instance.
841
842 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
843 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
844 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
845
846 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
847 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
848 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
849
850 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
851 ModifyInstance correctly.
852
853 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
854 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
855 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
856 the DMTF specification.
857
858 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
859 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
860 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
861 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
862
863 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
864
865 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
866 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
867 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
868 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
869 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
870 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
871 the entire instance.
872
873 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
874 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
875 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
876 be used to update the instance.
877
878 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
879 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
880 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
881
882 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
883 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
884 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
885
886 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
887 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
888 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
889 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
890 without the standard (std) namespace.
891
892 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
893 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
894 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
895
896 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
897 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
898 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
899 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
900 following command before starting cimserver:
901
902 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
903
904 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
905 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
906 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
907 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
908 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
909 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
910 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
911
912 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
913 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
914 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
915
916 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
917 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
918 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
919 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
920 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
921
922 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
923 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
924 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
925 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
926 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
927 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
928 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
929
930 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
931 Security components for authentication and authorization.
932
933 Authentication and User Management:
934 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
935 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
936 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
937 generated password file.
938
939 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
940 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
941
942 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
943 management and authorization functionality.
944
945 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
946 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
947
948 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
949 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
950 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
951
952 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
953 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
954 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
955
956 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
957 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
958 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
959 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
960 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
961 or change in provider registration.
962
963 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
964 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
965 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
966 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
967
968 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
969 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
970 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
971 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
972 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
973 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
974 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
975 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
976 How to use it in a Server or Client:
977 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
978 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
979 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
980 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
981 mike 1.50
|
982 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
983 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
984
985 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

989 Tagged as version_1_01 on 3 August 2001 (sorry should have been
990 1.1
991
992 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
993 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
994 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
995
996 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
997 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
998
999 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1000 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1001
1002 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1003 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1004 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1005 and SimpleThread.
1006
1007 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1008 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1009 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1010 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1011 the test script.
1012
1013 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1014 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1015 and
1016 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1017 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1018 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1019
1020 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1021 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1022 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1023 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1024 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1025 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1026 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1027 information on running the test script.
1028
1029 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1030 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1031 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1032
1033 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1034 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1035 that
1036 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1037 password.
1038 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1039 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1040 build.
1041 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1042 modified to integrate with the framework.

1067 allow slp to compile.
1068
|
1069 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1070
1071 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1072 ids to queue pointers).
1073
|
1074 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler
1075 and Dispatcher.
1076
|
1077 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher
1078 and

1095 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1096 karl 1.16
1097 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1098 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1099 mike 1.26
|
1100 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1101 5988.
1102 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1103 the DMTF.
|
1104 mike 1.26
|
1105 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1106 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1107 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1108 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1109 mike 1.26
|
1110 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1111 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1112 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1113 mike 1.26
|
1114 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1115 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1116 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1117 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1118 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1119 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1120 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1121 mike 1.26
|
1122 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1123 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1124 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1125 mike 1.26
|
1126 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1127 mike 1.26
|
1128 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1129 modifyClass,
|
1130 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1131 mike 1.26
|
1132 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1133 directory. These
1134 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1135 CIMProviderStub has
|
1136 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1137 mike 1.26
|
1138 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1139 mike 1.26
|
1140 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1141 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1142 mike 1.26
1143 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1144 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1145
1146 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1147 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1148 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1149 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1150 (MEB)
|
1151 mike 1.26
|
1152 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1153
|
1154 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1155 AssociationName
|
1156 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1157 pages.
1158
|
1159 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1160 sage 1.31
1161 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1162 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1163 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1164 variables.
|
1165 mike 1.32
1166 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1167 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1168 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1169 kumpf 1.34
1170 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1171 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1172 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1173 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1174 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1175 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1176 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1177 karl 1.35
1178 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1179 tests for stack and queue.

1255 karl 1.1
1256 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1257 qualifiers, methods.
1258 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1259 methods.
1260 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1261 qualifiers and to
1262 remove qualifiers.
1263 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1264 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1265 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1266 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1267 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1268 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1269 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
