|
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.
79
|
80 kumpf 1.107 12. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Extended versioning strategy
81 to allow platform-specific version strings.

83 karl 1.95 ========================================================================
84
|
85 karl 1.93 Version 1.08 working towards 1.1 - Started 27 March 2002
|
86 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because
87 of problems with the CVS repository
|
88 karl 1.93
|
89 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
|
90 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08.
91
|
92 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass,
93 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.

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

434 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
435
436 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
437 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
438 may temporarily be in side branches.
439 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.

441 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
442 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
443 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
444 which is the current file based repository.
445
446 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
447 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
448 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
449 in the future.

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

458 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
459 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
460 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
461 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
462 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
463 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
464
|
465 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
466 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
467 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
468 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
469 program.
470
|
471 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
472 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
473 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
474 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
475 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
476 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
477 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
478 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
479 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
480
481 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
482 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
483 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
484
485 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
486 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
487 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
488 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
489
490 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
491 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
492 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
493 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
494
495 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
496 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
497
498 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

506 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
507
|
508 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
509 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
510
511 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
512 mike 1.51 =======
513 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
514 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
515
516 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
517 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
518 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
519 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
520 should not affect any current work.
521 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
522 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
523 loads the 2.5 schema.
524
525 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
526 on XML output.
527
528 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
529 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
530 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
531 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
532 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
533 mike 1.51
534 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
535 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
536 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
537 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
538 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
539 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
540 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
541 to show user friendly error/status messages.
542
543 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
544 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
545 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
546 generating debug output.
547
548 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
549 xml when it generates xml output.
550
551 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
552 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
553 repository implementation.
554 mike 1.51
555 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
556
557 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
558
559 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
560
561 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
562
563 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.
564
565 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
566 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
567
568 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
569
570 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.
571
572 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
573
574 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
575 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
576 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
577
578 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
579 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
580 input and output can be written in a trace file.
581
582 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
583 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
584 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
585
586 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
587 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
588 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
589 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
590 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
591 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
592 are modified to implement above messages.
593
594 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
595 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
596 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
597 indication to consumer. This program needs
598 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
599 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
600 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
601 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
602 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
603 below:
604
605 //====================================================================
606 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
607 //====================================================================
608 [Description (
609 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
610 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
611 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
612
613 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
614 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
615 a provider library.
616
617 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
618 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
619 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
620 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
621 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
622 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
623 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
624 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
625 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
626 later).
627
628 Also added are two test programs:
629
630 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
631 CIMParamValue class.
632
633 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
634 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
635 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
636 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
637 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
638 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
639
640 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
641 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
642 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
643 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
644 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
645 and to verify the authentication.
646
647 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
648 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
649 yet linked into the build.
650
651 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
652 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
653 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
654 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
655 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
656 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
657 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
658
659 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
660 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
661 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
662 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
663 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
664 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
665 provider file path name.
666
667 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
668 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
669 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
670 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
671 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
672 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
673 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
674 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
675
676 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
677 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
678 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
679 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
680 mike 1.51
681 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
682 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
683 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
684 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
685
686 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
687 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
688 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
689 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
690 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
691 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
692 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
693 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
694 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
695
696 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
697 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
698
699 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
700
701 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
702 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
703 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
704 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
705 in make files.
706
707 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
708 because getting an error in 26
709
710 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
711 whose types are references. These reference values must be
712 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
713 tag structure.
714
715 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
716 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
717 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
718
719 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
720 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
721 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
722 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
723 of String type and a key of reference type.
724
725 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
726 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
727 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
728 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
729 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
730 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
731 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
732 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
733
734 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
735 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
736 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
737 reference type.
738
739 In this example:
740
741 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
742
743 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
744 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
745 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
746 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
747 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
748
749 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
750 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
751 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
752 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
753 correctly.
754
755 The files that have been modified to make this change are
756 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
757
758 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
759 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
760 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
761 CIMOM version.
762
763 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
764 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
765 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
766 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
767 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
768 definition to determine the key property types.
769
770 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
771 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
772 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
773 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
774
775 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
776 (instanceName).
777
778 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
779 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
780 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
781 relevant intrinsic methods.
782
783 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
784 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
785 mike 1.51
786 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
787 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
788 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
789 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
790 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
791 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
792 nsk platform links.
793
794 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
795 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
796 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
797 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
798 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
799 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
800 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
801
802 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
803 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
804 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
805 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
806 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
807 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
808 in that same form, without special character encoding.
809
810 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
811 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
812 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
813 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
814
815 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
816 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
817 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
818 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
819 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
820
821 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
822 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
823 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
824 be updated to use this class.
825
826 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
827 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
828 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
829 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
830 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
831
832 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
833 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
834 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
835 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
836 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
837 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
838
839 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
840
841 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
842 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
843 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
844 CIMNamedInstance
845 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
846 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
847 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
848 mike 1.51
849 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
850
851 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
852 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
853 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
854 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
855 functionality.
856
857 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
858
859 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
860 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
861 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
862 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
863 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
864 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
865 the entire instance.
866
867 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
868 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
869 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
870
871 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
872 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
873 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
874
875 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
876 ModifyInstance correctly.
877
878 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
879 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
880 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
881 the DMTF specification.
882
883 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
884 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
885 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
886 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
887
888 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
889
890 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
891 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
892 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
893 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
894 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
895 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
896 the entire instance.
897
898 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
899 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
900 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
901 be used to update the instance.
902
903 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
904 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
905 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
906
907 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
908 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
909 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
910
911 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
912 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
913 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
914 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
915 without the standard (std) namespace.
916
917 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
918 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
919 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
920
921 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
922 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
923 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
924 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
925 following command before starting cimserver:
926
927 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
928
929 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
930 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
931 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
932 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
933 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
934 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
935 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
936
937 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
938 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
939 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
940
941 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
942 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
943 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
944 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
945 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
946
947 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
948 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
949 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
950 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
951 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
952 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
953 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
954
955 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
956 Security components for authentication and authorization.
957
958 Authentication and User Management:
959 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
960 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
961 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
962 generated password file.
963
964 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
965 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
966
967 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
968 management and authorization functionality.
969
970 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
971 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
972
973 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
974 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
975 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
976
977 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
978 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
979 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
980
981 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
982 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
983 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
984 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
985 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
986 or change in provider registration.
987
988 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
989 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
990 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
991 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
992
993 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
994 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
995 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
996 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
997 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
998 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
999 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1000 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1001 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1002 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1003 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1004 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1005 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1006 mike 1.50
|
1007 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1008 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1009
1010 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1014 Tagged as version_1_01 on 3 August 2001 (sorry should have been
1015 1.1
1016
1017 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1018 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1019 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1020
1021 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1022 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1023
1024 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1025 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1026
1027 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1028 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1029 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1030 and SimpleThread.
1031
1032 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1033 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1034 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1035 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1036 the test script.
1037
1038 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1039 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1040 and
1041 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1042 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1043 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1044
1045 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1046 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1047 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1048 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1049 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1050 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1051 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1052 information on running the test script.
1053
1054 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1055 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1056 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1057
1058 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1059 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1060 that
1061 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1062 password.
1063 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1064 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1065 build.
1066 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1067 modified to integrate with the framework.

1093
|
1094 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1095
1096 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1097 ids to queue pointers).
1098

1100 and Dispatcher.
1101
|
1102 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher

1120 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1121 karl 1.16
1122 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1123 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1124 mike 1.26
|
1125 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1126 5988.
1127 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1128 the DMTF.
|
1129 mike 1.26
|
1130 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1131 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1132 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1133 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1134 mike 1.26
|
1135 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1136 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1137 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1138 mike 1.26
|
1139 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1140 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1141 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1142 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1143 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1144 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1145 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1146 mike 1.26
|
1147 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1148 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1149 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1150 mike 1.26
|
1151 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1152 mike 1.26
|
1153 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1154 modifyClass,
|
1155 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1156 mike 1.26
|
1157 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1158 directory. These
1159 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1160 CIMProviderStub has
|
1161 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1162 mike 1.26
|
1163 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1164 mike 1.26
|
1165 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1166 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1167 mike 1.26
1168 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1169 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1170
1171 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1172 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1173 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1174 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1175 (MEB)
|
1176 mike 1.26
|
1177 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1178
|
1179 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1180 AssociationName
|
1181 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1182 pages.
1183
|
1184 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1185 sage 1.31
1186 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1187 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1188 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1189 variables.
|
1190 mike 1.32
1191 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1192 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1193 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1194 kumpf 1.34
1195 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1196 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1197 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1198 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1199 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1200 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1201 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1202 karl 1.35
1203 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1204 tests for stack and queue.

1280 karl 1.1
1281 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1282 qualifiers, methods.
1283 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1284 methods.
1285 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1286 qualifiers and to
1287 remove qualifiers.
1288 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1289 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1290 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1291 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1292 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1293 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1294 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
