|
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.
88
|
89 kumpf 1.108
|
90 kumpf 1.110 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Feb 2002 - HP-Nag: Added PAM based user
91 authentication module. The implementation is available only on Unix
92 platforms. The PAM module is optional and it can be built by setting
93 the environment variable PEGASUS_PAM_AUTHENTICATION."
94
|
95 kumpf 1.111 16. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented static methods
96 Uint64 getDifference(CIMDateTime, CIMDateTime), to get the difference
97 between two CIMDateTimes and CIMDateTime getCurrentDateTime(), to return
98 the current date time as CIMDateTime in the CIMDateTime class. Also added
99 method Boolean isInterval(), to check if the CIMDateTime object is an
100 interval.

115 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
116 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
117 TAG: VERSION_1_07
118
119 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
120
|
121 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
122 karl 1.59
|
123 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
124 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
125 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
126 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
127 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
128 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
129 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
130
131 For more information look in to the following files:
132 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h

134 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
135 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
136
137 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
138 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
139 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
140 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
141 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
142 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
143 karl 1.63
|
144 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
145 karl 1.62
|
146 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
147 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
148
|
149 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
150 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
151 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
152 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
153 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
154
|
155 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
156 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
157 will be deleted.
158
|
159 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
160
161 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
162 karl 1.66
|
163 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
164 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
165 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
166 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
167 for remote clients.
|
168 karl 1.66
|
169 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
170 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
171 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
172 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
173 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
174 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
175 values.
176
177 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
178
179 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
180 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
181 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
182 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
183 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
184 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
185
186 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
187 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
188 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
189 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
190 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
191 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
192 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
193 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
194 specified in the method definition.
195
196 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
197
198 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
199 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
200 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
201 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
202 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
203 correct type rather than as a String.
204
205 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
206 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
207 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
208 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
209 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
210 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
211 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
212
213 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
214 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
215 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
216
217 SIDE EFFECTS:
218
219 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
220 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
221 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
222 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
223 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
224
225 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
226 clean-up, which I completed.
227
228 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
229
230 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
231 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
232 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
233 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
234 the specified value to that property's type.
235
236 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
237 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
238 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
239 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
240
241 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
242 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
243 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
244 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
245 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
246 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
247
|
248 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
249 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
250 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
251 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
252 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
253 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
254 encoding of parameter values.
255
256 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
257 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
258 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
259 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
260 have defaulted to String type.

261 karl 1.70
262 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
263 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
|
264 karl 1.72
|
265 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
266 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
267 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
268 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
269 the server.
|
270 karl 1.72
271 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
272 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
273
|
274 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
275 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
276 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
277 operations.
278
279 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
280 karl 1.74
281 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
282 definition of CIMFlavors.
|
283 karl 1.76
|
284 kumpf 1.68
|
285 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
286 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
287 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
288 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
289 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
290 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
291 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
292
293 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
294 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
295 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
296 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
297 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
298 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
299 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
300 a single buffer.
301
302 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
303 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
304 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
305 various encoders and decoders, etc.
306 kumpf 1.75
307 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
308 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
309 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
310 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
311
312 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
313 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
314 validated.
|
315 karl 1.76
316 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
317 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
318 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
|
319 karl 1.78
|
320 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
321 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
322
323 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
324 HTTPConnector* connector;
325 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
326 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
327
328 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
329
330 With this change, the client application now looks like:
331
332 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
333
334 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
335
336 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
337 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
338 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
339 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
340 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
341 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
342 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
343 rather than in the constructor.
344
345 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
346 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
347 included in the Pegasus build.
|
348 kumpf 1.79
|
349 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
350 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
351 kumpf 1.75
|
352 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
353 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
354 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
355 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
356 for that purpose.
357
358 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
359
360 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
361 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
362 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
363 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
364 line number of the CIMException originator.
365
366 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
367
368 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
369 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
370 input and writes the String to the trace file.
371
372 (ex.)
373 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
374 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
375
376 or use the following new macro:
377 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
378
|
379 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
380 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
381 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
382 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
383 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
384 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
385 ramnath 1.81
386 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
387 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
388 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
389 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
390 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
391 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
392 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
393 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
394 ramnath 1.80
|
395 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
396 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
397 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
398 in the Windows service work thread.
399
|
400 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
401 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
402 executable
403
404 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
405 executable.
|
406 kumpf 1.84
407 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
408 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
409 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
410 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
411 an integer of the specified size.
412
|
413 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
414 in XmlReader.cpp.
415
|
416 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
417 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
418 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
419 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
420
|
421 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
422 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
423 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
424 karl 1.88
425 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
426 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
427
|
428 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
429 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
430 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
431 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
432 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
433 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
434 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
435 linked into the server.
|
436 karl 1.88
|
437 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
438 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
439 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
440
|
441 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
442 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
443 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
444 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
445 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.

446 karl 1.92
447 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
448 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
449 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.

453 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
454
455 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
456 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
457 may temporarily be in side branches.
458 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
459 karl 1.53
460 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
461 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
462 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
463 which is the current file based repository.
464
465 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
466 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
467 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
468 in the future.

470 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
471 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
472 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
473 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
474 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
475 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
476
|
477 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
478 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
479 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
480 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
481 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
482 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
483
|
484 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
485 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
486 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
487 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
488 program.
489
|
490 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
491 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
492 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
493 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
494 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
495 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
496 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
497 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
498 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
499
500 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
501 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
502 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
503
504 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
505 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
506 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
507 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
508
509 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
510 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
511 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
512 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
513
514 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
515 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
516
517 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

525 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
526
|
527 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
528 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
529
530 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
531 mike 1.51 =======
532 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
533 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
534
535 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
536 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
537 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
538 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
539 should not affect any current work.
540 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
541 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
542 loads the 2.5 schema.
543
544 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
545 on XML output.
546
547 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
548 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
549 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
550 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
551 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
552 mike 1.51
553 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
554 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
555 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
556 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
557 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
558 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
559 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
560 to show user friendly error/status messages.
561
562 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
563 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
564 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
565 generating debug output.
566
567 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
568 xml when it generates xml output.
569
570 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
571 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
572 repository implementation.
573 mike 1.51
574 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
575
576 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
577
578 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
579
580 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
581
582 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.
583
584 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
585 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
586
587 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
588
589 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.
590
591 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
592
593 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
594 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
595 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
596
597 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
598 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
599 input and output can be written in a trace file.
600
601 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
602 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
603 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
604
605 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
606 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
607 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
608 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
609 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
610 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
611 are modified to implement above messages.
612
613 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
614 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
615 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
616 indication to consumer. This program needs
617 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
618 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
619 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
620 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
621 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
622 below:
623
624 //====================================================================
625 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
626 //====================================================================
627 [Description (
628 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
629 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
630 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
631
632 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
633 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
634 a provider library.
635
636 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
637 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
638 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
639 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
640 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
641 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
642 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
643 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
644 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
645 later).
646
647 Also added are two test programs:
648
649 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
650 CIMParamValue class.
651
652 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
653 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
654 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
655 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
656 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
657 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
658
659 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
660 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
661 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
662 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
663 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
664 and to verify the authentication.
665
666 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
667 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
668 yet linked into the build.
669
670 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
671 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
672 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
673 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
674 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
675 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
676 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
677
678 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
679 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
680 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
681 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
682 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
683 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
684 provider file path name.
685
686 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
687 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
688 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
689 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
690 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
691 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
692 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
693 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
694
695 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
696 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
697 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
698 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
699 mike 1.51
700 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
701 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
702 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
703 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
704
705 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
706 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
707 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
708 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
709 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
710 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
711 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
712 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
713 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
714
715 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
716 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
717
718 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
719
720 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
721 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
722 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
723 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
724 in make files.
725
726 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
727 because getting an error in 26
728
729 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
730 whose types are references. These reference values must be
731 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
732 tag structure.
733
734 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
735 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
736 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
737
738 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
739 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
740 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
741 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
742 of String type and a key of reference type.
743
744 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
745 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
746 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
747 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
748 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
749 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
750 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
751 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
752
753 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
754 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
755 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
756 reference type.
757
758 In this example:
759
760 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
761
762 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
763 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
764 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
765 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
766 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
767
768 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
769 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
770 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
771 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
772 correctly.
773
774 The files that have been modified to make this change are
775 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
776
777 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
778 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
779 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
780 CIMOM version.
781
782 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
783 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
784 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
785 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
786 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
787 definition to determine the key property types.
788
789 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
790 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
791 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
792 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
793
794 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
795 (instanceName).
796
797 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
798 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
799 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
800 relevant intrinsic methods.
801
802 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
803 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
804 mike 1.51
805 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
806 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
807 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
808 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
809 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
810 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
811 nsk platform links.
812
813 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
814 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
815 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
816 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
817 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
818 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
819 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
820
821 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
822 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
823 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
824 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
825 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
826 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
827 in that same form, without special character encoding.
828
829 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
830 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
831 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
832 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
833
834 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
835 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
836 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
837 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
838 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
839
840 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
841 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
842 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
843 be updated to use this class.
844
845 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
846 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
847 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
848 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
849 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
850
851 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
852 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
853 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
854 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
855 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
856 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
857
858 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
859
860 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
861 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
862 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
863 CIMNamedInstance
864 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
865 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
866 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
867 mike 1.51
868 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
869
870 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
871 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
872 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
873 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
874 functionality.
875
876 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
877
878 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
879 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
880 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
881 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
882 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
883 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
884 the entire instance.
885
886 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
887 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
888 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
889
890 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
891 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
892 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
893
894 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
895 ModifyInstance correctly.
896
897 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
898 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
899 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
900 the DMTF specification.
901
902 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
903 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
904 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
905 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
906
907 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
908
909 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
910 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
911 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
912 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
913 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
914 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
915 the entire instance.
916
917 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
918 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
919 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
920 be used to update the instance.
921
922 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
923 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
924 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
925
926 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
927 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
928 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
929
930 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
931 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
932 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
933 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
934 without the standard (std) namespace.
935
936 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
937 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
938 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
939
940 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
941 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
942 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
943 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
944 following command before starting cimserver:
945
946 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
947
948 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
949 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
950 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
951 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
952 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
953 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
954 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
955
956 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
957 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
958 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
959
960 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
961 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
962 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
963 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
964 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
965
966 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
967 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
968 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
969 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
970 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
971 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
972 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
973
974 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
975 Security components for authentication and authorization.
976
977 Authentication and User Management:
978 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
979 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
980 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
981 generated password file.
982
983 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
984 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
985
986 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
987 management and authorization functionality.
988
989 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
990 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
991
992 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
993 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
994 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
995
996 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
997 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
998 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
999
1000 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1001 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1002 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1003 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1004 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1005 or change in provider registration.
1006
1007 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1008 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1009 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1010 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1011
1012 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1013 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1014 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1015 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1016 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1017 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1018 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1019 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1020 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1021 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1022 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1023 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1024 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1025 mike 1.50
|
1026 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1027 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1028
1029 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1034 1.1
1035
1036 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1037 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1038 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1039
1040 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1041 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1042
1043 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1044 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1045
1046 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1047 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1048 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1049 and SimpleThread.
1050
1051 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1052 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1053 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1054 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1055 the test script.
1056
1057 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1058 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1059 and
1060 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1061 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1062 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1063
1064 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1065 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1066 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1067 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1068 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1069 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1070 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1071 information on running the test script.
1072
1073 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1074 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1075 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1076
1077 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1078 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1079 that
1080 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1081 password.
1082 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1083 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1084 build.
1085 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1086 modified to integrate with the framework.

|
1140 karl 1.16
1141 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1142 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1143 mike 1.26
|
1144 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1145 5988.
1146 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1147 the DMTF.
|
1148 mike 1.26
|
1149 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1150 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1151 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1152 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1153 mike 1.26
|
1154 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1155 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1156 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1157 mike 1.26
|
1158 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1159 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1160 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1161 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1162 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1163 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1164 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1165 mike 1.26
|
1166 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1167 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1168 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1169 mike 1.26
|
1170 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1171 mike 1.26
|
1172 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1173 modifyClass,
|
1174 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1175 mike 1.26
|
1176 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1177 directory. These
1178 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1179 CIMProviderStub has
|
1180 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1181 mike 1.26
|
1182 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1183 mike 1.26
|
1184 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1185 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1186 mike 1.26
1187 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1188 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1189
1190 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1191 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1192 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1193 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1194 (MEB)
|
1195 mike 1.26
|
1196 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1197
|
1198 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1199 AssociationName
|
1200 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1201 pages.
1202
|
1203 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1204 sage 1.31
1205 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1206 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1207 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1208 variables.
|
1209 mike 1.32
1210 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1211 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1212 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1213 kumpf 1.34
1214 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1215 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1216 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1217 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1218 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1219 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1220 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1221 karl 1.35
1222 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1223 tests for stack and queue.

1272 1. Extend HP UX port to correctly load Dynamic Load Libraries.
1273 2. Extend Formatter for Boolean and Uint32 types.
1274 3. Change CIM Server to use Trace (-t) flag. This also changed
1275 Handler.h to work off of flag.
1276 4. Minor corrections to __Namespace Provider.
1277 5. Extend tests for Formatter, String, and other modules.
1278 6. Correct errors in documentation.

1299 karl 1.1
1300 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1301 qualifiers, methods.
1302 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1303 methods.
1304 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1305 qualifiers and to
1306 remove qualifiers.
1307 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1308 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1309 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1310 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1311 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1312 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1313 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
