3 karl 1.95 Version 1.09 - Started 5 April 2002
4 TAG: Version_1_09.
5
6 1. 5 April 2002 (KS) Update version to 1.09. TAG, and took snapshot.

|
8 kumpf 1.96 2. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Apr 2002 - Modified the CIMOperationResponseMessage
9 class and its subclasses to contain a CIMException instead of a
10 CIMStatusCode and String description. This allows extra information in
11 a CIMException, such as file name and line number, to be carried
12 internally throughout the system.
13
14 This change creates a single place where CIMExceptions are converted
15 to an error code and description to be written out in XML. This
16 single place controls the ability to tune what gets included in the
17 error description, as well as providing a convenient place to trace
18 errors that get returned to clients. In particular, client applications
19 currently see messages that contain redundant error code information,
20 such as:
21
22 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One or more parameter values passed
23 to the method were invalid: "CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One
24 or more parameter values passed to the method were invalid:
25 "Unrecognized parameter "Bogus"""
26
27 The CIMOperationResponseMessage change will allow the redundant
28 information to be eliminated from the messages.

29 karl 1.97
30 3. (KS) 7 April 2002- Minor really bad hack to systemwindows.cpp getcurrenttime
31 after roger fixed timevalue.
|
32 kumpf 1.96
|
33 kumpf 1.98 4. (DME) 7 April 2002 Added support for HPUX running on IA64 hardware.
34
|
35 kumpf 1.99 5. (DME) 7 April 2002 Update master result file for MOF Compiler CLI tests.
|
36 kumpf 1.100 Update master result file of wbemexec CLI tests.
|
37 kumpf 1.99
|
38 ramnath 1.101 6. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 8 Apr 2002 - Modified a libraries.mak file in the src/Pegasus/Security/Authentication/tests directory in order to fix the
39 build on Tru64.
40
|
41 kumpf 1.102 7. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Apr 2002 - The RETURNVALUE and IRETURNVALUE elements
42 of the XML encoding of operation responses had been treated as mandatory.
43 The client response decoder has been updated to make those elements
44 optional for operations that do not require a return value. The server
45 response encoder has been updated not to include those elements when the
46 request does not include a return value.
47
|
48 kumpf 1.103 8. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 9 Apr 2002 - Updated the Instance, Association, and
49 Class provider interfaces to use CIMPropertyList instead of Array<String>
50 for the propertyList parameters. All providers that implement a method
51 with a propertyList parameter must be modified in accordance with this
52 change. All providers linked into the Pegasus build have been updated.
53
|
54 kumpf 1.105 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTP error message to be
|
55 kumpf 1.104 returned to the CIMClient when an HTTP error response is returned.
56 Added a method to parse the status line of an HTTP response.
|
57 kumpf 1.105
58 10. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Changed the MessageQueue::getQueueName()
59 method from virtual to non-virtual, and removed that method definition
60 from all the subclasses. To make sure that the MessageQueue class gets
61 the queue name value, the default value for the queue name parameter to
62 the MessageQueue constructor was removed. Constants were defined in
63 Constants.h for all the queue names currently used in Pegasus. The
64 places where those queue names were being used for lookup were also
65 changed to use the constants.
|
66 kumpf 1.104
|
67 kumpf 1.106 11. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTPError exception to
68 report non-200-OK HTTP responses back to client applications. Added
69 an HTTPErrorMessage class to hold information about an HTTP error
70 response. Added support in the CIMOperationResponseDecoder to
71 process HTTP error responses and turn them into HTTPErrorMessages.
72 Added support in CIMClient to process HTTPErrorMessages and throw an
73 HTTP error. This functionality required fundamental changes in the
74 way CIMClient processes messages. It can no longer search its queue
75 for a message of the expected type. Instead, is assumes that no
76 messages should be on its queue unless it has sent a request to the
77 encoder. In that case, it assumes that any message on its queue is
78 the response to that request.
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.
101
|
102 kumpf 1.112 17. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Improved Consumer interface with
103 indications. Now indications can be displayed using sample
104 DisplayConsumer. To test, create Handler with destination as
105 localhost:5988/logicalname. Create a file consumer_list.dat in your
106 PEGASUS_HOME directory and then ass entry as follows:
107 logicalname = DisplayConsumer
108 This will help ConsumerTable to load the DisplayConsumer to consume
109 the indication passed through ExportServer (CIMExportRequestDispathcer).

124 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
125 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
126 TAG: VERSION_1_07
127
128 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
129
|
130 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
131 karl 1.59
|
132 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
133 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
134 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
135 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
136 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
137 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
138 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
139
140 For more information look in to the following files:
141 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h

143 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
144 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
145
146 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
147 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
148 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
149 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
150 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
151 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
152 karl 1.63
|
153 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
154 karl 1.62
|
155 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
156 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
157
|
158 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
159 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
160 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
161 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
162 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
163
|
164 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
165 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
166 will be deleted.
167
|
168 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
169
170 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
171 karl 1.66
|
172 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
173 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
174 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
175 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
176 for remote clients.
|
177 karl 1.66
|
178 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
179 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
180 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
181 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
182 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
183 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
184 values.
185
186 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
187
188 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
189 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
190 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
191 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
192 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
193 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
194
195 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
196 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
197 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
198 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
199 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
200 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
201 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
202 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
203 specified in the method definition.
204
205 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
206
207 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
208 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
209 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
210 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
211 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
212 correct type rather than as a String.
213
214 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
215 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
216 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
217 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
218 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
219 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
220 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
221
222 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
223 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
224 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
225
226 SIDE EFFECTS:
227
228 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
229 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
230 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
231 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
232 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
233
234 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
235 clean-up, which I completed.
236
237 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
238
239 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
240 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
241 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
242 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
243 the specified value to that property's type.
244
245 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
246 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
247 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
248 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
249
250 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
251 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
252 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
253 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
254 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
255 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
256
|
257 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
258 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
259 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
260 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
261 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
262 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
263 encoding of parameter values.
264
265 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
266 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
267 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
268 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
269 have defaulted to String type.

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

437 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
438 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
439 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
440 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
441 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
442 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
443 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
444 linked into the server.

446 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
447 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
448 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
449
|
450 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
451 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
452 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
453 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
454 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.

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

462 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
463
464 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
465 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
466 may temporarily be in side branches.
467 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
468 karl 1.53
469 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
470 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
471 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
472 which is the current file based repository.
473
474 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
475 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
476 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
477 in the future.

479 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
480 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
481 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
482 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
483 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
484 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
485
|
486 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
487 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
488 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
489 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
490 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
491 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
492
|
493 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
494 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
495 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
496 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
497 program.
498
|
499 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
500 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
501 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
502 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
503 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
504 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
505 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
506 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
507 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
508
509 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
510 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
511 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
512
513 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
514 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
515 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
516 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
517
518 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
519 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
520 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
521 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
522
523 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
524 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
525
526 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

534 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
535
|
536 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
537 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
538
539 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
540 mike 1.51 =======
541 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
542 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
543
544 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
545 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
546 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
547 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
548 should not affect any current work.
549 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
550 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
551 loads the 2.5 schema.
552
553 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
554 on XML output.
555
556 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
557 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
558 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
559 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
560 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
561 mike 1.51
562 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
563 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
564 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
565 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
566 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
567 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
568 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
569 to show user friendly error/status messages.
570
571 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
572 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
573 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
574 generating debug output.
575
576 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
577 xml when it generates xml output.
578
579 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
580 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
581 repository implementation.
582 mike 1.51
583 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
584
585 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
586
587 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
588
589 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
590
591 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.
592
593 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
594 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
595
596 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
597
598 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.
599
600 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
601
602 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
603 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
604 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
605
606 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
607 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
608 input and output can be written in a trace file.
609
610 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
611 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
612 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
613
614 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
615 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
616 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
617 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
618 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
619 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
620 are modified to implement above messages.
621
622 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
623 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
624 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
625 indication to consumer. This program needs
626 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
627 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
628 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
629 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
630 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
631 below:
632
633 //====================================================================
634 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
635 //====================================================================
636 [Description (
637 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
638 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
639 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
640
641 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
642 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
643 a provider library.
644
645 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
646 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
647 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
648 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
649 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
650 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
651 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
652 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
653 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
654 later).
655
656 Also added are two test programs:
657
658 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
659 CIMParamValue class.
660
661 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
662 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
663 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
664 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
665 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
666 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
667
668 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
669 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
670 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
671 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
672 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
673 and to verify the authentication.
674
675 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
676 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
677 yet linked into the build.
678
679 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
680 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
681 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
682 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
683 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
684 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
685 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
686
687 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
688 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
689 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
690 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
691 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
692 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
693 provider file path name.
694
695 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
696 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
697 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
698 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
699 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
700 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
701 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
702 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
703
704 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
705 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
706 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
707 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
708 mike 1.51
709 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
710 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
711 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
712 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
713
714 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
715 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
716 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
717 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
718 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
719 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
720 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
721 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
722 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
723
724 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
725 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
726
727 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
728
729 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
730 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
731 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
732 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
733 in make files.
734
735 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
736 because getting an error in 26
737
738 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
739 whose types are references. These reference values must be
740 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
741 tag structure.
742
743 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
744 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
745 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
746
747 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
748 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
749 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
750 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
751 of String type and a key of reference type.
752
753 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
754 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
755 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
756 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
757 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
758 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
759 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
760 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
761
762 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
763 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
764 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
765 reference type.
766
767 In this example:
768
769 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
770
771 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
772 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
773 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
774 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
775 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
776
777 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
778 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
779 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
780 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
781 correctly.
782
783 The files that have been modified to make this change are
784 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
785
786 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
787 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
788 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
789 CIMOM version.
790
791 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
792 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
793 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
794 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
795 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
796 definition to determine the key property types.
797
798 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
799 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
800 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
801 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
802
803 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
804 (instanceName).
805
806 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
807 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
808 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
809 relevant intrinsic methods.
810
811 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
812 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
813 mike 1.51
814 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
815 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
816 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
817 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
818 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
819 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
820 nsk platform links.
821
822 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
823 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
824 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
825 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
826 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
827 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
828 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
829
830 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
831 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
832 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
833 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
834 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
835 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
836 in that same form, without special character encoding.
837
838 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
839 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
840 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
841 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
842
843 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
844 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
845 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
846 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
847 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
848
849 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
850 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
851 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
852 be updated to use this class.
853
854 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
855 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
856 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
857 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
858 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
859
860 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
861 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
862 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
863 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
864 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
865 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
866
867 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
868
869 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
870 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
871 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
872 CIMNamedInstance
873 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
874 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
875 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
876 mike 1.51
877 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
878
879 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
880 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
881 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
882 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
883 functionality.
884
885 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
886
887 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
888 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
889 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
890 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
891 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
892 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
893 the entire instance.
894
895 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
896 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
897 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
898
899 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
900 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
901 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
902
903 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
904 ModifyInstance correctly.
905
906 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
907 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
908 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
909 the DMTF specification.
910
911 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
912 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
913 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
914 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
915
916 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
917
918 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
919 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
920 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
921 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
922 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
923 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
924 the entire instance.
925
926 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
927 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
928 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
929 be used to update the instance.
930
931 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
932 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
933 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
934
935 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
936 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
937 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
938
939 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
940 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
941 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
942 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
943 without the standard (std) namespace.
944
945 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
946 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
947 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
948
949 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
950 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
951 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
952 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
953 following command before starting cimserver:
954
955 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
956
957 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
958 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
959 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
960 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
961 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
962 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
963 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
964
965 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
966 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
967 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
968
969 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
970 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
971 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
972 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
973 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
974
975 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
976 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
977 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
978 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
979 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
980 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
981 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
982
983 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
984 Security components for authentication and authorization.
985
986 Authentication and User Management:
987 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
988 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
989 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
990 generated password file.
991
992 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
993 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
994
995 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
996 management and authorization functionality.
997
998 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
999 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1000
1001 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1002 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1003 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1004
1005 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1006 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1007 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1008
1009 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1010 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1011 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1012 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1013 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1014 or change in provider registration.
1015
1016 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1017 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1018 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1019 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1020
1021 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1022 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1023 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1024 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1025 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1026 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1027 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1028 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1029 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1030 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1031 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1032 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1033 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1034 mike 1.50
|
1035 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1036 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1037
1038 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1043 1.1
1044
1045 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1046 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1047 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1048
1049 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1050 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1051
1052 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1053 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1054
1055 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1056 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1057 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1058 and SimpleThread.
1059
1060 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1061 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1062 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1063 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1064 the test script.
1065
1066 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1067 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1068 and
1069 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1070 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1071 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1072
1073 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1074 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1075 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1076 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1077 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1078 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1079 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1080 information on running the test script.
1081
1082 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1083 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1084 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1085
1086 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1087 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1088 that
1089 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1090 password.
1091 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1092 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1093 build.
1094 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1095 modified to integrate with the framework.

1120 allow slp to compile.
1121
|
1122 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1123
1124 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1125 ids to queue pointers).
1126
|
1127 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler
1128 and Dispatcher.
1129
|
1130 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher
1131 and

|
1149 karl 1.16
1150 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1151 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1152 mike 1.26
|
1153 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1154 5988.
1155 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1156 the DMTF.
|
1157 mike 1.26
|
1158 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1159 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1160 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1161 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1162 mike 1.26
|
1163 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1164 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1165 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1166 mike 1.26
|
1167 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1168 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1169 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1170 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1171 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1172 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1173 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1174 mike 1.26
|
1175 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1176 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1177 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1178 mike 1.26
|
1179 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1180 mike 1.26
|
1181 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1182 modifyClass,
|
1183 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1184 mike 1.26
|
1185 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1186 directory. These
1187 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1188 CIMProviderStub has
|
1189 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1190 mike 1.26
|
1191 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1192 mike 1.26
|
1193 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1194 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1195 mike 1.26
1196 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1197 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1198
1199 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1200 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1201 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1202 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1203 (MEB)
|
1204 mike 1.26
|
1205 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1206
|
1207 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1208 AssociationName
|
1209 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1210 pages.
1211
|
1212 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1213 sage 1.31
1214 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1215 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1216 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1217 variables.
|
1218 mike 1.32
1219 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1220 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1221 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1222 kumpf 1.34
1223 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1224 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1225 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1226 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1227 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1228 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1229 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1230 karl 1.35
1231 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1232 tests for stack and queue.

1309 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1310 qualifiers, methods.
1311 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1312 methods.
1313 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1314 qualifiers and to
1315 remove qualifiers.
1316 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1317 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with

1318 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1319 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1320 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1321 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1322 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
