|
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.
82
|
83 kumpf 1.108 13. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Renamed shared library for
84 ManagedSystem/OperatingSystem provider so that it would not
85 conflict with library name of generic/OperatingSystem provider.

|
90 karl 1.93 Version 1.08 working towards 1.1 - Started 27 March 2002
|
91 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because
92 of problems with the CVS repository
|
93 karl 1.93
|
94 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
|
95 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08.
96
|
97 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass,
98 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.

100 karl 1.59
101 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
102 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
103 TAG: VERSION_1_07
104
105 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
106
|
107 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
108 karl 1.59
|
109 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
110 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
111 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
112 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
113 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
114 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
115 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
116
117 For more information look in to the following files:
118 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
119 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
120 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
121 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
122
123 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
124 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
125 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
126 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
127 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
128 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
129 karl 1.63
|
130 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
131 karl 1.62
|
132 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
133 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
134
|
135 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
136 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
137 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
138 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
139 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
140
|
141 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
142 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
143 will be deleted.
144
|
145 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
146
147 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
148 karl 1.66
|
149 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
150 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
151 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
152 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
153 for remote clients.
|
154 karl 1.66
|
155 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
156 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
157 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
158 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
159 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
160 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
161 values.
162
163 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
164
165 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
166 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
167 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
168 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
169 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
170 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
171
172 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
173 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
174 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
175 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
176 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
177 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
178 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
179 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
180 specified in the method definition.
181
182 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
183
184 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
185 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
186 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
187 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
188 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
189 correct type rather than as a String.
190
191 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
192 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
193 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
194 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
195 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
196 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
197 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
198
199 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
200 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
201 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
202
203 SIDE EFFECTS:
204
205 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
206 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
207 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
208 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
209 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
210
211 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
212 clean-up, which I completed.
213
214 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
215
216 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
217 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
218 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
219 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
220 the specified value to that property's type.
221
222 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
223 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
224 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
225 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
226
227 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
228 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
229 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
230 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
231 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
232 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
233
|
234 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
235 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
236 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
237 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
238 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
239 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
240 encoding of parameter values.
241
242 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
243 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
244 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
245 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
246 have defaulted to String type.

247 karl 1.70
248 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
249 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
|
250 karl 1.72
|
251 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
252 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
253 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
254 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
255 the server.
|
256 karl 1.72
257 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
258 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
259
|
260 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
261 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
262 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
263 operations.
264
265 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
266 karl 1.74
267 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
268 definition of CIMFlavors.
|
269 karl 1.76
|
270 kumpf 1.68
|
271 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
272 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
273 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
274 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
275 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
276 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
277 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
278
279 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
280 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
281 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
282 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
283 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
284 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
285 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
286 a single buffer.
287
288 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
289 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
290 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
291 various encoders and decoders, etc.
292 kumpf 1.75
293 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
294 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
295 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
296 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
297
298 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
299 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
300 validated.
|
301 karl 1.76
302 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
303 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
304 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
|
305 karl 1.78
|
306 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
307 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
308
309 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
310 HTTPConnector* connector;
311 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
312 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
313
314 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
315
316 With this change, the client application now looks like:
317
318 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
319
320 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
321
322 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
323 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
324 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
325 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
326 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
327 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
328 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
329 rather than in the constructor.
330
331 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
332 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
333 included in the Pegasus build.
|
334 kumpf 1.79
|
335 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
336 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
337 kumpf 1.75
|
338 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
339 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
340 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
341 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
342 for that purpose.
343
344 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
345
346 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
347 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
348 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
349 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
350 line number of the CIMException originator.
351
352 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
353
354 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
355 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
356 input and writes the String to the trace file.
357
358 (ex.)
359 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
360 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
361
362 or use the following new macro:
363 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
364
|
365 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
366 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
367 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
368 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
369 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
370 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
371 ramnath 1.81
372 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
373 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
374 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
375 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
376 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
377 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
378 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
379 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
380 ramnath 1.80
|
381 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
382 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
383 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
384 in the Windows service work thread.
385
|
386 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
387 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
388 executable
389
390 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
391 executable.
|
392 kumpf 1.84
393 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
394 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
395 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
396 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
397 an integer of the specified size.
398
|
399 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
400 in XmlReader.cpp.
401
|
402 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
403 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
404 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
405 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
406
|
407 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
408 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
409 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
410 karl 1.88
411 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
412 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
413
|
414 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
415 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
416 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
417 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
418 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
419 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
420 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
421 linked into the server.
|
422 karl 1.88
|
423 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
424 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
425 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
426
|
427 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
428 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
429 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
430 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
431 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
432 karl 1.92
433 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
434 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
435 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.

441 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
442 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
443 may temporarily be in side branches.
444 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.

446 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
447 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
448 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
449 which is the current file based repository.
450
451 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
452 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
453 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
454 in the future.

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

463 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
464 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
465 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
466 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
467 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
468 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
469
|
470 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
471 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
472 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
473 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
474 program.
475
|
476 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
477 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
478 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
479 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
480 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
481 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
482 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
483 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
484 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
485
486 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
487 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
488 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
489
490 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
491 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
492 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
493 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
494
495 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
496 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
497 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
498 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
499
500 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
501 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
502
503 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

513 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
514 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
515
516 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
517 mike 1.51 =======
518 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
519 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
520
521 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
522 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
523 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
524 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
525 should not affect any current work.
526 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
527 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
528 loads the 2.5 schema.
529
530 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
531 on XML output.
532
533 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
534 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
535 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
536 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
537 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
538 mike 1.51
539 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
540 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
541 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
542 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
543 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
544 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
545 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
546 to show user friendly error/status messages.
547
548 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
549 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
550 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
551 generating debug output.
552
553 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
554 xml when it generates xml output.
555
556 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
557 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
558 repository implementation.
559 mike 1.51
560 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
561
562 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
563
564 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
565
566 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
567
568 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.
569
570 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
571 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
572
573 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
574
575 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.
576
577 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
578
579 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
580 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
581 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
582
583 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
584 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
585 input and output can be written in a trace file.
586
587 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
588 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
589 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
590
591 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
592 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
593 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
594 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
595 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
596 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
597 are modified to implement above messages.
598
599 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
600 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
601 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
602 indication to consumer. This program needs
603 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
604 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
605 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
606 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
607 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
608 below:
609
610 //====================================================================
611 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
612 //====================================================================
613 [Description (
614 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
615 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
616 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
617
618 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
619 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
620 a provider library.
621
622 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
623 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
624 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
625 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
626 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
627 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
628 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
629 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
630 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
631 later).
632
633 Also added are two test programs:
634
635 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
636 CIMParamValue class.
637
638 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
639 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
640 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
641 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
642 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
643 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
644
645 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
646 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
647 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
648 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
649 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
650 and to verify the authentication.
651
652 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
653 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
654 yet linked into the build.
655
656 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
657 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
658 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
659 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
660 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
661 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
662 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
663
664 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
665 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
666 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
667 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
668 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
669 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
670 provider file path name.
671
672 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
673 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
674 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
675 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
676 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
677 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
678 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
679 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
680
681 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
682 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
683 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
684 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
685 mike 1.51
686 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
687 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
688 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
689 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
690
691 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
692 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
693 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
694 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
695 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
696 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
697 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
698 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
699 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
700
701 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
702 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
703
704 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
705
706 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
707 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
708 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
709 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
710 in make files.
711
712 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
713 because getting an error in 26
714
715 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
716 whose types are references. These reference values must be
717 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
718 tag structure.
719
720 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
721 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
722 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
723
724 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
725 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
726 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
727 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
728 of String type and a key of reference type.
729
730 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
731 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
732 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
733 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
734 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
735 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
736 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
737 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
738
739 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
740 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
741 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
742 reference type.
743
744 In this example:
745
746 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
747
748 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
749 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
750 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
751 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
752 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
753
754 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
755 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
756 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
757 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
758 correctly.
759
760 The files that have been modified to make this change are
761 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
762
763 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
764 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
765 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
766 CIMOM version.
767
768 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
769 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
770 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
771 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
772 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
773 definition to determine the key property types.
774
775 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
776 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
777 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
778 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
779
780 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
781 (instanceName).
782
783 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
784 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
785 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
786 relevant intrinsic methods.
787
788 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
789 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
790 mike 1.51
791 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
792 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
793 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
794 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
795 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
796 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
797 nsk platform links.
798
799 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
800 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
801 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
802 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
803 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
804 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
805 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
806
807 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
808 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
809 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
810 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
811 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
812 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
813 in that same form, without special character encoding.
814
815 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
816 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
817 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
818 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
819
820 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
821 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
822 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
823 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
824 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
825
826 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
827 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
828 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
829 be updated to use this class.
830
831 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
832 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
833 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
834 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
835 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
836
837 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
838 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
839 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
840 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
841 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
842 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
843
844 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
845
846 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
847 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
848 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
849 CIMNamedInstance
850 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
851 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
852 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
853 mike 1.51
854 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
855
856 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
857 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
858 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
859 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
860 functionality.
861
862 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
863
864 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
865 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
866 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
867 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
868 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
869 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
870 the entire instance.
871
872 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
873 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
874 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
875
876 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
877 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
878 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
879
880 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
881 ModifyInstance correctly.
882
883 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
884 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
885 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
886 the DMTF specification.
887
888 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
889 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
890 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
891 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
892
893 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
894
895 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
896 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
897 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
898 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
899 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
900 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
901 the entire instance.
902
903 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
904 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
905 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
906 be used to update the instance.
907
908 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
909 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
910 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
911
912 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
913 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
914 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
915
916 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
917 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
918 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
919 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
920 without the standard (std) namespace.
921
922 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
923 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
924 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
925
926 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
927 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
928 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
929 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
930 following command before starting cimserver:
931
932 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
933
934 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
935 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
936 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
937 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
938 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
939 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
940 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
941
942 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
943 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
944 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
945
946 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
947 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
948 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
949 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
950 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
951
952 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
953 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
954 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
955 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
956 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
957 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
958 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
959
960 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
961 Security components for authentication and authorization.
962
963 Authentication and User Management:
964 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
965 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
966 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
967 generated password file.
968
969 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
970 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
971
972 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
973 management and authorization functionality.
974
975 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
976 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
977
978 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
979 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
980 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
981
982 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
983 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
984 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
985
986 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
987 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
988 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
989 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
990 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
991 or change in provider registration.
992
993 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
994 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
995 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
996 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
997
998 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
999 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1000 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1001 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1002 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1003 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1004 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1005 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1006 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1007 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1008 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1009 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1010 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1011 mike 1.50
|
1012 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1013 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1014
1015 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1019 Tagged as version_1_01 on 3 August 2001 (sorry should have been
1020 1.1
1021
1022 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1023 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1024 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1025
1026 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1027 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1028
1029 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1030 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1031
1032 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1033 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1034 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1035 and SimpleThread.
1036
1037 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1038 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1039 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1040 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1041 the test script.
1042
1043 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1044 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1045 and
1046 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1047 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1048 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1049
1050 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1051 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1052 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1053 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1054 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1055 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1056 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1057 information on running the test script.
1058
1059 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1060 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1061 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1062
1063 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1064 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1065 that
1066 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1067 password.
1068 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1069 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1070 build.
1071 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1072 modified to integrate with the framework.

1098
|
1099 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1100
1101 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1102 ids to queue pointers).
1103

1125 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1126 karl 1.16
1127 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1128 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1129 mike 1.26
|
1130 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1131 5988.
1132 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1133 the DMTF.
|
1134 mike 1.26
|
1135 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1136 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1137 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1138 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1139 mike 1.26
|
1140 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1141 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1142 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1143 mike 1.26
|
1144 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1145 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1146 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1147 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1148 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1149 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1150 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1151 mike 1.26
|
1152 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1153 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1154 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1155 mike 1.26
|
1156 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1157 mike 1.26
|
1158 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1159 modifyClass,
|
1160 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1161 mike 1.26
|
1162 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1163 directory. These
1164 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1165 CIMProviderStub has
|
1166 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1167 mike 1.26
|
1168 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1169 mike 1.26
|
1170 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1171 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1172 mike 1.26
1173 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1174 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1175
1176 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1177 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1178 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1179 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1180 (MEB)
|
1181 mike 1.26
|
1182 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1183
|
1184 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1185 AssociationName
|
1186 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1187 pages.
1188
|
1189 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1190 sage 1.31
1191 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1192 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1193 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1194 variables.
|
1195 mike 1.32
1196 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1197 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1198 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1199 kumpf 1.34
1200 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1201 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1202 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1203 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1204 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1205 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1206 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1207 karl 1.35
1208 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1209 tests for stack and queue.

1286 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1287 qualifiers, methods.
1288 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1289 methods.
1290 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1291 qualifiers and to
1292 remove qualifiers.
1293 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1294 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1295 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1296 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1297 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1298 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1299 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
