4 TAG: Version_1_09.
5
6 1. 5 April 2002 (KS) Update version to 1.09. TAG, and took snapshot.

|
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.

29 karl 1.97
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 1.105 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTP error message to be
|
55 kumpf 1.104 returned to the CIMClient when an HTTP error response is returned.
56 Added a method to parse the status line of an HTTP response.
|
57 kumpf 1.105
58 10. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Changed the MessageQueue::getQueueName()
59 method from virtual to non-virtual, and removed that method definition
60 from all the subclasses. To make sure that the MessageQueue class gets
61 the queue name value, the default value for the queue name parameter to
62 the MessageQueue constructor was removed. Constants were defined in
63 Constants.h for all the queue names currently used in Pegasus. The
64 places where those queue names were being used for lookup were also
65 changed to use the constants.
|
66 kumpf 1.104
|
67 kumpf 1.106 11. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTPError exception to
68 report non-200-OK HTTP responses back to client applications. Added
69 an HTTPErrorMessage class to hold information about an HTTP error
70 response. Added support in the CIMOperationResponseDecoder to
71 process HTTP error responses and turn them into HTTPErrorMessages.
72 Added support in CIMClient to process HTTPErrorMessages and throw an
73 HTTP error. This functionality required fundamental changes in the
74 way CIMClient processes messages. It can no longer search its queue
75 for a message of the expected type. Instead, is assumes that no
76 messages should be on its queue unless it has sent a request to the
77 encoder. In that case, it assumes that any message on its queue is
78 the response to that request.

81
|
82 karl 1.93 Version 1.08 working towards 1.1 - Started 27 March 2002
|
83 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because
84 of problems with the CVS repository
|
85 karl 1.93
|
86 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
|
87 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08.
88
|
89 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass,
90 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.

92 karl 1.59
93 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
94 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
95 TAG: VERSION_1_07
96
97 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
98
|
99 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
100 karl 1.59
|
101 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
102 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
103 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
104 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
105 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
106 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
107 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
108
109 For more information look in to the following files:
110 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
111 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
112 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
113 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
114
115 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
116 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
117 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
118 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
119 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
120 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
121 karl 1.63
|
122 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
123 karl 1.62
|
124 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
125 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
126
|
127 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
128 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
129 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
130 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
131 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
132
|
133 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
134 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
135 will be deleted.
136
|
137 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
138
139 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
140 karl 1.66
|
141 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
142 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
143 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
144 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
145 for remote clients.
|
146 karl 1.66
|
147 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
148 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
149 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
150 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
151 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
152 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
153 values.
154
155 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
156
157 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
158 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
159 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
160 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
161 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
162 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
163
164 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
165 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
166 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
167 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
168 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
169 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
170 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
171 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
172 specified in the method definition.
173
174 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
175
176 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
177 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
178 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
179 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
180 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
181 correct type rather than as a String.
182
183 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
184 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
185 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
186 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
187 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
188 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
189 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
190
191 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
192 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
193 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
194
195 SIDE EFFECTS:
196
197 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
198 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
199 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
200 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
201 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
202
203 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
204 clean-up, which I completed.
205
206 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
207
208 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
209 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
210 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
211 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
212 the specified value to that property's type.
213
214 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
215 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
216 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
217 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
218
219 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
220 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
221 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
222 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
223 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
224 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
225
|
226 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
227 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
228 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
229 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
230 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
231 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
232 encoding of parameter values.
233
234 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
235 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
236 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
237 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
238 have defaulted to String type.
|
239 karl 1.70
240 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
241 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
|
242 karl 1.72
|
243 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
244 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
245 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
246 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
247 the server.
|
248 karl 1.72
249 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
250 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
251
|
252 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
253 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
254 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
255 operations.
256
257 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
258 karl 1.74
259 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
260 definition of CIMFlavors.
|
261 karl 1.76
|
262 kumpf 1.68
|
263 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
264 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
265 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
266 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
267 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
268 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
269 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
270
271 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
272 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
273 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
274 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
275 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
276 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
277 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
278 a single buffer.
279
280 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
281 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
282 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
283 various encoders and decoders, etc.
284 kumpf 1.75
285 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
286 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
287 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
288 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
289
290 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
291 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
292 validated.
|
293 karl 1.76
294 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
295 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
296 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
|
297 karl 1.78
|
298 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
299 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
300
301 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
302 HTTPConnector* connector;
303 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
304 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
305
306 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
307
308 With this change, the client application now looks like:
309
310 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
311
312 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
313
314 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
315 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
316 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
317 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
318 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
319 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
320 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
321 rather than in the constructor.
322
323 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
324 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
325 included in the Pegasus build.
|
326 kumpf 1.79
|
327 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
328 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
329 kumpf 1.75
|
330 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
331 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
332 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
333 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
334 for that purpose.
335
336 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
337
338 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
339 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
340 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
341 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
342 line number of the CIMException originator.
343
344 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
345
346 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
347 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
348 input and writes the String to the trace file.
349
350 (ex.)
351 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
352 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
353
354 or use the following new macro:
355 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
356
|
357 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
358 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
359 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
360 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
361 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
362 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
363 ramnath 1.81
364 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
365 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
366 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
367 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
368 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
369 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
370 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
371 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
372 ramnath 1.80
|
373 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
374 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
375 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
376 in the Windows service work thread.
377
|
378 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
379 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
380 executable
381
382 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
383 executable.
|
384 kumpf 1.84
385 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
386 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
387 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
388 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
389 an integer of the specified size.
390
|
391 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
392 in XmlReader.cpp.
393
|
394 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
395 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
396 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
397 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
398
|
399 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
400 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
401 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
402 karl 1.88
403 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
404 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
405
|
406 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
407 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
408 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
409 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
410 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
411 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
412 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
413 linked into the server.
|
414 karl 1.88
|
415 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
416 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
417 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
418
|
419 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
420 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
421 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
422 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
423 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
424 karl 1.92
425 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
426 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
427 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.
428

429 kumpf 1.91
|
430 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
431 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
432
433 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
434 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
435 may temporarily be in side branches.
436 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
437 karl 1.53
438 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
439 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
440 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
441 which is the current file based repository.
442
443 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
444 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
445 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
446 in the future.

448 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
449 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
450 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
451 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
452 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
453 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.

455 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
456 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
457 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
458 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
459 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
460 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
461
|
462 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
463 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
464 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
465 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
466 program.
467
|
468 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
469 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
470 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
471 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
472 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
473 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
474 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
475 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
476 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
477
478 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
479 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
480 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
481
482 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
483 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
484 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
485 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
486
487 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
488 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
489 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
490 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
491
492 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
493 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
494
495 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

503 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
504
|
505 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
506 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
507
508 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
509 mike 1.51 =======
510 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
511 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
512
513 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
514 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
515 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
516 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
517 should not affect any current work.
518 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
519 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
520 loads the 2.5 schema.
521
522 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
523 on XML output.
524
525 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
526 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
527 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
528 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
529 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
530 mike 1.51
531 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
532 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
533 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
534 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
535 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
536 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
537 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
538 to show user friendly error/status messages.
539
540 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
541 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
542 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
543 generating debug output.
544
545 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
546 xml when it generates xml output.
547
548 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
549 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
550 repository implementation.
551 mike 1.51
552 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
553
554 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
555
556 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
557
558 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
559
560 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.
561
562 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
563 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
564
565 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
566
567 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.
568
569 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
570
571 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
572 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
573 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
574
575 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
576 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
577 input and output can be written in a trace file.
578
579 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
580 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
581 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
582
583 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
584 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
585 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
586 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
587 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
588 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
589 are modified to implement above messages.
590
591 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
592 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
593 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
594 indication to consumer. This program needs
595 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
596 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
597 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
598 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
599 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
600 below:
601
602 //====================================================================
603 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
604 //====================================================================
605 [Description (
606 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
607 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
608 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
609
610 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
611 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
612 a provider library.
613
614 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
615 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
616 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
617 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
618 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
619 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
620 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
621 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
622 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
623 later).
624
625 Also added are two test programs:
626
627 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
628 CIMParamValue class.
629
630 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
631 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
632 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
633 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
634 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
635 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
636
637 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
638 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
639 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
640 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
641 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
642 and to verify the authentication.
643
644 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
645 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
646 yet linked into the build.
647
648 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
649 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
650 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
651 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
652 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
653 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
654 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
655
656 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
657 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
658 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
659 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
660 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
661 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
662 provider file path name.
663
664 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
665 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
666 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
667 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
668 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
669 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
670 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
671 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
672
673 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
674 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
675 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
676 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
677 mike 1.51
678 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
679 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
680 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
681 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
682
683 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
684 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
685 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
686 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
687 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
688 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
689 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
690 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
691 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
692
693 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
694 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
695
696 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
697
698 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
699 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
700 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
701 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
702 in make files.
703
704 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
705 because getting an error in 26
706
707 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
708 whose types are references. These reference values must be
709 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
710 tag structure.
711
712 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
713 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
714 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
715
716 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
717 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
718 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
719 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
720 of String type and a key of reference type.
721
722 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
723 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
724 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
725 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
726 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
727 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
728 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
729 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
730
731 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
732 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
733 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
734 reference type.
735
736 In this example:
737
738 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
739
740 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
741 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
742 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
743 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
744 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
745
746 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
747 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
748 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
749 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
750 correctly.
751
752 The files that have been modified to make this change are
753 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
754
755 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
756 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
757 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
758 CIMOM version.
759
760 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
761 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
762 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
763 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
764 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
765 definition to determine the key property types.
766
767 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
768 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
769 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
770 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
771
772 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
773 (instanceName).
774
775 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
776 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
777 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
778 relevant intrinsic methods.
779
780 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
781 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
782 mike 1.51
783 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
784 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
785 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
786 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
787 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
788 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
789 nsk platform links.
790
791 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
792 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
793 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
794 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
795 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
796 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
797 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
798
799 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
800 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
801 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
802 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
803 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
804 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
805 in that same form, without special character encoding.
806
807 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
808 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
809 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
810 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
811
812 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
813 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
814 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
815 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
816 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
817
818 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
819 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
820 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
821 be updated to use this class.
822
823 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
824 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
825 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
826 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
827 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
828
829 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
830 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
831 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
832 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
833 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
834 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
835
836 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
837
838 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
839 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
840 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
841 CIMNamedInstance
842 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
843 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
844 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
845 mike 1.51
846 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
847
848 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
849 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
850 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
851 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
852 functionality.
853
854 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
855
856 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
857 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
858 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
859 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
860 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
861 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
862 the entire instance.
863
864 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
865 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
866 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
867
868 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
869 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
870 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
871
872 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
873 ModifyInstance correctly.
874
875 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
876 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
877 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
878 the DMTF specification.
879
880 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
881 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
882 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
883 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
884
885 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
886
887 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
888 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
889 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
890 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
891 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
892 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
893 the entire instance.
894
895 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
896 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
897 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
898 be used to update the instance.
899
900 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
901 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
902 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
903
904 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
905 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
906 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
907
908 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
909 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
910 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
911 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
912 without the standard (std) namespace.
913
914 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
915 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
916 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
917
918 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
919 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
920 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
921 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
922 following command before starting cimserver:
923
924 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
925
926 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
927 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
928 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
929 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
930 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
931 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
932 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
933
934 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
935 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
936 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
937
938 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
939 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
940 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
941 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
942 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
943
944 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
945 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
946 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
947 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
948 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
949 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
950 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
951
952 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
953 Security components for authentication and authorization.
954
955 Authentication and User Management:
956 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
957 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
958 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
959 generated password file.
960
961 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
962 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
963
964 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
965 management and authorization functionality.
966
967 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
968 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
969
970 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
971 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
972 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
973
974 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
975 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
976 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
977
978 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
979 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
980 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
981 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
982 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
983 or change in provider registration.
984
985 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
986 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
987 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
988 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
989
990 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
991 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
992 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
993 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
994 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
995 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
996 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
997 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
998 How to use it in a Server or Client:
999 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1000 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1001 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1002 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1003 mike 1.50
|
1004 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1005 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1006
1007 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1011 Tagged as version_1_01 on 3 August 2001 (sorry should have been
1012 1.1
1013
1014 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1015 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1016 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1017
1018 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1019 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1020
1021 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1022 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1023
1024 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1025 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1026 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1027 and SimpleThread.
1028
1029 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1030 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1031 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1032 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1033 the test script.
1034
1035 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1036 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1037 and
1038 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1039 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1040 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1041
1042 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1043 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1044 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1045 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1046 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1047 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1048 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1049 information on running the test script.
1050
1051 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1052 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1053 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1054
1055 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1056 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1057 that
1058 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1059 password.
1060 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1061 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1062 build.
1063 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1064 modified to integrate with the framework.

1090
|
1091 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1092
1093 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1094 ids to queue pointers).
1095

1117 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1118 karl 1.16
1119 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1120 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1121 mike 1.26
|
1122 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1123 5988.
1124 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1125 the DMTF.
|
1126 mike 1.26
|
1127 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1128 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1129 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1130 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1131 mike 1.26
|
1132 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1133 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1134 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1135 mike 1.26
|
1136 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1137 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1138 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1139 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1140 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1141 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1142 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1143 mike 1.26
|
1144 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1145 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1146 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1147 mike 1.26
|
1148 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1149 mike 1.26
|
1150 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1151 modifyClass,
|
1152 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1153 mike 1.26
|
1154 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1155 directory. These
1156 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1157 CIMProviderStub has
|
1158 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1159 mike 1.26
|
1160 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1161 mike 1.26
|
1162 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1163 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1164 mike 1.26
1165 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1166 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1167
1168 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1169 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1170 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1171 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1172 (MEB)
|
1173 mike 1.26
|
1174 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1175
|
1176 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1177 AssociationName
|
1178 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1179 pages.
1180
|
1181 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1182 sage 1.31
1183 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1184 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1185 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1186 variables.
|
1187 mike 1.32
1188 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1189 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1190 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1191 kumpf 1.34
1192 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1193 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1194 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1195 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1196 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1197 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1198 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1199 karl 1.35
1200 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1201 tests for stack and queue.

1277 karl 1.1
1278 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1279 qualifiers, methods.
1280 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1281 methods.
1282 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1283 qualifiers and to
1284 remove qualifiers.
1285 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1286 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1287 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1288 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1289 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1290 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1291 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
