4 TAG: Version_1_09.
5
6 1. 5 April 2002 (KS) Update version to 1.09. TAG, and took snapshot.
7
|
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).
110
|
111 kumpf 1.113 18. (Yi Zhou - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented sending message of provider
112 registration notification to subscription service.

127 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
128 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
129 TAG: VERSION_1_07
130
131 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
132
|
133 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
134 karl 1.59
|
135 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
136 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
137 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
138 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
139 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
140 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
141 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
142
143 For more information look in to the following files:
144 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h

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

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

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

448 karl 1.88
|
449 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
450 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
451 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
452
|
453 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
454 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
455 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
456 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
457 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.

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

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

482 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
483 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
484 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
485 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
486 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
487 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
488
|
489 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
490 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
491 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
492 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
493 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
494 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
495
|
496 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
497 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
498 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
499 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
500 program.
501
|
502 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
503 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
504 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
505 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
506 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
507 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
508 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
509 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
510 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
511
512 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
513 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
514 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
515
516 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
517 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
518 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
519 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
520
521 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
522 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
523 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
524 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
525
526 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
527 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
528
529 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

537 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
538
|
539 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
540 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
541
542 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
543 mike 1.51 =======
544 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
545 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
546
547 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
548 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
549 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
550 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
551 should not affect any current work.
552 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
553 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
554 loads the 2.5 schema.
555
556 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
557 on XML output.
558
559 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
560 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
561 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
562 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
563 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
564 mike 1.51
565 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
566 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
567 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
568 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
569 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
570 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
571 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
572 to show user friendly error/status messages.
573
574 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
575 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
576 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
577 generating debug output.
578
579 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
580 xml when it generates xml output.
581
582 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
583 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
584 repository implementation.
585 mike 1.51
586 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
587
588 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
589
590 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
591
592 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
593
594 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.
595
596 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
597 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
598
599 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
600
601 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.
602
603 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
604
605 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
606 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
607 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
608
609 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
610 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
611 input and output can be written in a trace file.
612
613 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
614 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
615 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
616
617 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
618 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
619 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
620 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
621 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
622 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
623 are modified to implement above messages.
624
625 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
626 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
627 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
628 indication to consumer. This program needs
629 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
630 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
631 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
632 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
633 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
634 below:
635
636 //====================================================================
637 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
638 //====================================================================
639 [Description (
640 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
641 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
642 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
643
644 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
645 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
646 a provider library.
647
648 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
649 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
650 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
651 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
652 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
653 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
654 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
655 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
656 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
657 later).
658
659 Also added are two test programs:
660
661 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
662 CIMParamValue class.
663
664 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
665 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
666 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
667 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
668 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
669 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
670
671 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
672 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
673 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
674 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
675 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
676 and to verify the authentication.
677
678 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
679 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
680 yet linked into the build.
681
682 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
683 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
684 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
685 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
686 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
687 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
688 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
689
690 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
691 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
692 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
693 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
694 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
695 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
696 provider file path name.
697
698 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
699 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
700 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
701 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
702 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
703 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
704 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
705 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
706
707 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
708 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
709 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
710 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
711 mike 1.51
712 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
713 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
714 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
715 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
716
717 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
718 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
719 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
720 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
721 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
722 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
723 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
724 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
725 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
726
727 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
728 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
729
730 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
731
732 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
733 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
734 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
735 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
736 in make files.
737
738 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
739 because getting an error in 26
740
741 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
742 whose types are references. These reference values must be
743 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
744 tag structure.
745
746 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
747 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
748 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
749
750 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
751 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
752 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
753 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
754 of String type and a key of reference type.
755
756 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
757 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
758 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
759 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
760 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
761 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
762 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
763 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
764
765 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
766 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
767 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
768 reference type.
769
770 In this example:
771
772 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
773
774 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
775 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
776 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
777 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
778 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
779
780 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
781 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
782 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
783 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
784 correctly.
785
786 The files that have been modified to make this change are
787 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
788
789 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
790 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
791 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
792 CIMOM version.
793
794 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
795 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
796 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
797 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
798 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
799 definition to determine the key property types.
800
801 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
802 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
803 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
804 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
805
806 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
807 (instanceName).
808
809 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
810 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
811 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
812 relevant intrinsic methods.
813
814 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
815 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
816 mike 1.51
817 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
818 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
819 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
820 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
821 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
822 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
823 nsk platform links.
824
825 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
826 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
827 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
828 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
829 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
830 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
831 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
832
833 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
834 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
835 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
836 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
837 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
838 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
839 in that same form, without special character encoding.
840
841 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
842 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
843 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
844 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
845
846 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
847 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
848 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
849 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
850 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
851
852 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
853 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
854 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
855 be updated to use this class.
856
857 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
858 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
859 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
860 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
861 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
862
863 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
864 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
865 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
866 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
867 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
868 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
869
870 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
871
872 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
873 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
874 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
875 CIMNamedInstance
876 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
877 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
878 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
879 mike 1.51
880 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
881
882 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
883 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
884 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
885 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
886 functionality.
887
888 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
889
890 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
891 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
892 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
893 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
894 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
895 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
896 the entire instance.
897
898 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
899 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
900 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
901
902 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
903 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
904 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
905
906 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
907 ModifyInstance correctly.
908
909 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
910 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
911 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
912 the DMTF specification.
913
914 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
915 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
916 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
917 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
918
919 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
920
921 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
922 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
923 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
924 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
925 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
926 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
927 the entire instance.
928
929 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
930 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
931 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
932 be used to update the instance.
933
934 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
935 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
936 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
937
938 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
939 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
940 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
941
942 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
943 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
944 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
945 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
946 without the standard (std) namespace.
947
948 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
949 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
950 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
951
952 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
953 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
954 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
955 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
956 following command before starting cimserver:
957
958 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
959
960 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
961 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
962 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
963 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
964 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
965 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
966 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
967
968 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
969 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
970 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
971
972 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
973 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
974 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
975 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
976 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
977
978 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
979 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
980 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
981 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
982 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
983 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
984 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
985
986 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
987 Security components for authentication and authorization.
988
989 Authentication and User Management:
990 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
991 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
992 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
993 generated password file.
994
995 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
996 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
997
998 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
999 management and authorization functionality.
1000
1001 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1002 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1003
1004 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1005 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1006 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1007
1008 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1009 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1010 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1011
1012 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1013 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1014 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1015 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1016 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1017 or change in provider registration.
1018
1019 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1020 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1021 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1022 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1023
1024 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1025 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1026 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1027 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1028 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1029 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1030 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1031 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1032 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1033 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1034 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1035 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1036 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1037 mike 1.50
|
1038 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1039 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1040
1041 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1046 1.1
1047
1048 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1049 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1050 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1051
1052 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1053 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1054
1055 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1056 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1057
1058 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1059 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1060 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1061 and SimpleThread.
1062
1063 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1064 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1065 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1066 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1067 the test script.
1068
1069 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1070 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1071 and
1072 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1073 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1074 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1075
1076 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1077 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1078 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1079 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1080 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1081 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1082 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1083 information on running the test script.
1084
1085 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1086 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1087 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1088
1089 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1090 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1091 that
1092 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1093 password.
1094 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1095 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1096 build.
1097 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1098 modified to integrate with the framework.

1124
|
1125 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1126
1127 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1128 ids to queue pointers).
1129
|
1130 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler
1131 and Dispatcher.
1132
|
1133 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher

1151 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1152 karl 1.16
1153 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1154 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1155 mike 1.26
|
1156 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1157 5988.
1158 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1159 the DMTF.
|
1160 mike 1.26
|
1161 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1162 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1163 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1164 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1165 mike 1.26
|
1166 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1167 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1168 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1169 mike 1.26
|
1170 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1171 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1172 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1173 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1174 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1175 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1176 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1177 mike 1.26
|
1178 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1179 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1180 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1181 mike 1.26
|
1182 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1183 mike 1.26
|
1184 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1185 modifyClass,
|
1186 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1187 mike 1.26
|
1188 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1189 directory. These
1190 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1191 CIMProviderStub has
|
1192 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1193 mike 1.26
|
1194 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1195 mike 1.26
|
1196 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1197 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1198 mike 1.26
1199 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1200 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1201
1202 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1203 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1204 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1205 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1206 (MEB)
|
1207 mike 1.26
|
1208 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1209
|
1210 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1211 AssociationName
|
1212 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1213 pages.
1214
|
1215 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1216 sage 1.31
1217 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1218 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1219 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1220 variables.
|
1221 mike 1.32
1222 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1223 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1224 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1225 kumpf 1.34
1226 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1227 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1228 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1229 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1230 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1231 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1232 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1233 karl 1.35
1234 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1235 tests for stack and queue.

1319 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1320 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1321 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1322 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1323 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1324 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1325 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
