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.
86
|
87 kumpf 1.109 14. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Added compile flags _REENTRANT and RWSTD_MULTI_THREAD flags for platform_HPUX_PARISC_ACC.

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

103 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
104 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
105 TAG: VERSION_1_07
106
107 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
108
|
109 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
110 karl 1.59
|
111 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
112 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
113 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
114 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
115 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
116 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
117 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
118
119 For more information look in to the following files:
120 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h

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

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

441 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
442
443 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
444 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
445 may temporarily be in side branches.
446 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.

447 karl 1.53
448 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
449 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
450 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
451 which is the current file based repository.
452
453 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
454 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
455 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
456 in the future.

458 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
459 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
460 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
461 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
462 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
463 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
464
|
465 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
466 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
467 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
468 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
469 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
470 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
471
|
472 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
473 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
474 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
475 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
476 program.
477
|
478 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
479 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
480 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
481 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
482 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
483 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
484 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
485 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
486 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
487
488 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
489 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
490 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
491
492 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
493 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
494 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
495 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
496
497 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
498 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
499 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
500 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
501
502 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
503 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
504
505 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

513 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
514
|
515 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
516 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
517
518 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
519 mike 1.51 =======
520 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
521 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
522
523 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
524 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
525 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
526 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
527 should not affect any current work.
528 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
529 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
530 loads the 2.5 schema.
531
532 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
533 on XML output.
534
535 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
536 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
537 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
538 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
539 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
540 mike 1.51
541 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
542 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
543 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
544 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
545 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
546 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
547 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
548 to show user friendly error/status messages.
549
550 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
551 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
552 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
553 generating debug output.
554
555 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
556 xml when it generates xml output.
557
558 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
559 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
560 repository implementation.
561 mike 1.51
562 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
563
564 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
565
566 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
567
568 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
569
570 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.
571
572 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
573 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
574
575 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
576
577 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.
578
579 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
580
581 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
582 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
583 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
584
585 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
586 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
587 input and output can be written in a trace file.
588
589 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
590 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
591 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
592
593 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
594 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
595 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
596 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
597 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
598 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
599 are modified to implement above messages.
600
601 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
602 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
603 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
604 indication to consumer. This program needs
605 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
606 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
607 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
608 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
609 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
610 below:
611
612 //====================================================================
613 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
614 //====================================================================
615 [Description (
616 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
617 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
618 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
619
620 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
621 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
622 a provider library.
623
624 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
625 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
626 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
627 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
628 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
629 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
630 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
631 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
632 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
633 later).
634
635 Also added are two test programs:
636
637 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
638 CIMParamValue class.
639
640 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
641 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
642 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
643 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
644 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
645 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
646
647 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
648 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
649 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
650 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
651 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
652 and to verify the authentication.
653
654 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
655 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
656 yet linked into the build.
657
658 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
659 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
660 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
661 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
662 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
663 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
664 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
665
666 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
667 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
668 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
669 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
670 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
671 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
672 provider file path name.
673
674 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
675 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
676 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
677 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
678 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
679 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
680 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
681 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
682
683 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
684 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
685 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
686 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
687 mike 1.51
688 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
689 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
690 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
691 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
692
693 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
694 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
695 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
696 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
697 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
698 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
699 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
700 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
701 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
702
703 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
704 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
705
706 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
707
708 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
709 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
710 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
711 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
712 in make files.
713
714 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
715 because getting an error in 26
716
717 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
718 whose types are references. These reference values must be
719 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
720 tag structure.
721
722 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
723 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
724 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
725
726 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
727 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
728 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
729 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
730 of String type and a key of reference type.
731
732 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
733 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
734 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
735 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
736 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
737 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
738 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
739 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
740
741 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
742 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
743 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
744 reference type.
745
746 In this example:
747
748 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
749
750 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
751 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
752 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
753 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
754 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
755
756 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
757 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
758 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
759 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
760 correctly.
761
762 The files that have been modified to make this change are
763 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
764
765 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
766 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
767 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
768 CIMOM version.
769
770 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
771 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
772 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
773 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
774 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
775 definition to determine the key property types.
776
777 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
778 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
779 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
780 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
781
782 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
783 (instanceName).
784
785 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
786 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
787 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
788 relevant intrinsic methods.
789
790 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
791 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
792 mike 1.51
793 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
794 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
795 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
796 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
797 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
798 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
799 nsk platform links.
800
801 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
802 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
803 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
804 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
805 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
806 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
807 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
808
809 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
810 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
811 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
812 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
813 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
814 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
815 in that same form, without special character encoding.
816
817 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
818 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
819 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
820 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
821
822 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
823 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
824 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
825 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
826 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
827
828 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
829 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
830 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
831 be updated to use this class.
832
833 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
834 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
835 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
836 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
837 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
838
839 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
840 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
841 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
842 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
843 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
844 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
845
846 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
847
848 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
849 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
850 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
851 CIMNamedInstance
852 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
853 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
854 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
855 mike 1.51
856 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
857
858 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
859 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
860 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
861 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
862 functionality.
863
864 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
865
866 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
867 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
868 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
869 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
870 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
871 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
872 the entire instance.
873
874 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
875 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
876 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
877
878 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
879 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
880 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
881
882 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
883 ModifyInstance correctly.
884
885 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
886 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
887 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
888 the DMTF specification.
889
890 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
891 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
892 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
893 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
894
895 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
896
897 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
898 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
899 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
900 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
901 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
902 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
903 the entire instance.
904
905 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
906 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
907 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
908 be used to update the instance.
909
910 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
911 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
912 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
913
914 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
915 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
916 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
917
918 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
919 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
920 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
921 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
922 without the standard (std) namespace.
923
924 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
925 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
926 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
927
928 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
929 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
930 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
931 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
932 following command before starting cimserver:
933
934 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
935
936 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
937 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
938 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
939 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
940 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
941 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
942 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
943
944 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
945 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
946 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
947
948 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
949 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
950 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
951 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
952 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
953
954 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
955 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
956 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
957 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
958 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
959 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
960 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
961
962 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
963 Security components for authentication and authorization.
964
965 Authentication and User Management:
966 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
967 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
968 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
969 generated password file.
970
971 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
972 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
973
974 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
975 management and authorization functionality.
976
977 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
978 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
979
980 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
981 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
982 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
983
984 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
985 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
986 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
987
988 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
989 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
990 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
991 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
992 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
993 or change in provider registration.
994
995 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
996 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
997 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
998 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
999
1000 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1001 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1002 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1003 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1004 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1005 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1006 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1007 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1008 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1009 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1010 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1011 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1012 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1013 mike 1.50
|
1014 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1015 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1016
1017 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1022 1.1
1023
1024 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1025 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1026 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1027
1028 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1029 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1030
1031 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1032 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1033
1034 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1035 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1036 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1037 and SimpleThread.
1038
1039 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1040 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1041 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1042 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1043 the test script.
1044
1045 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1046 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1047 and
1048 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1049 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1050 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1051
1052 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1053 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1054 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1055 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1056 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1057 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1058 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1059 information on running the test script.
1060
1061 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1062 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1063 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1064
1065 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1066 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1067 that
1068 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1069 password.
1070 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1071 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1072 build.
1073 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1074 modified to integrate with the framework.

1100
|
1101 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1102
1103 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1104 ids to queue pointers).
1105
|
1106 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler
1107 and Dispatcher.
1108
|
1109 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher

1127 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1128 karl 1.16
1129 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1130 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1131 mike 1.26
|
1132 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1133 5988.
1134 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1135 the DMTF.
|
1136 mike 1.26
|
1137 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1138 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1139 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1140 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1141 mike 1.26
|
1142 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1143 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1144 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1145 mike 1.26
|
1146 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1147 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1148 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1149 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1150 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1151 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1152 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1153 mike 1.26
|
1154 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1155 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1156 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1157 mike 1.26
|
1158 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1159 mike 1.26
|
1160 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1161 modifyClass,
|
1162 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1163 mike 1.26
|
1164 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1165 directory. These
1166 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1167 CIMProviderStub has
|
1168 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1169 mike 1.26
|
1170 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1171 mike 1.26
|
1172 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1173 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1174 mike 1.26
1175 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1176 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1177
1178 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1179 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1180 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1181 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1182 (MEB)
|
1183 mike 1.26
|
1184 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1185
|
1186 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1187 AssociationName
|
1188 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1189 pages.
1190
|
1191 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1192 sage 1.31
1193 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1194 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1195 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1196 variables.
|
1197 mike 1.32
1198 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1199 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1200 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1201 kumpf 1.34
1202 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1203 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1204 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1205 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1206 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1207 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1208 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1209 karl 1.35
1210 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1211 tests for stack and queue.

1288 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1289 qualifiers, methods.
1290 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1291 methods.
1292 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1293 qualifiers and to
1294 remove qualifiers.
1295 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1296 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1297 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1298 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1299 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1300 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1301 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
