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).
110
|
111 kumpf 1.113 18. (Yi Zhou - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented sending message of provider
112 registration notification to subscription service.
113
|
114 kumpf 1.114 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 16 Apr 2002 - Defined an exception hierarchy for
115 CIMClient API users. All exceptions thrown by CIMClient are now
116 subclasses of CIMClientException. The CIMClient methods are defined
117 as throwing CIMClientException, which will allow the actual exceptions
118 thrown to change without changing the method signatures. It also makes
119 it more clear to the client application which exceptions need to be
120 handled.
121
122 A new message type, ClientExceptionMessage has been defined as well.
123 This message is used to communicate client exceptions from the CIM
124 operation response decoder to the CIMClient. Previously, several
125 classes of exceptions were being dropped in the decoder. New
126 CIMClientException subclasses have been defined to model these
127 exceptions. These changes allow decoding exceptions to be passed
128 back to the client application. Examples are unparsable HTTP
129 responses, malformed XML, and mismatched CIM responses (message ID,
130 message type).
131
132 The CIM clients that are linked into the Pegasus build have been
133 updated to catch CIMClientException instead of CIMException.

148 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
149 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
150 TAG: VERSION_1_07
151
152 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
153
|
154 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
155 karl 1.59
|
156 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
157 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
158 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
159 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
160 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
161 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
162 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
163
164 For more information look in to the following files:
165 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
166 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
167 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
168 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
169
170 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
171 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
172 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
173 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
174 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
175 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
176 karl 1.63
|
177 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
178 karl 1.62
|
179 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
180 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
181
|
182 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
183 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
184 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
185 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
186 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
187
|
188 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
189 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
190 will be deleted.
191
|
192 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
193
194 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
195 karl 1.66
|
196 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
197 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
198 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
199 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
200 for remote clients.
|
201 karl 1.66
|
202 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
203 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
204 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
205 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
206 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
207 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
208 values.
209
210 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
211
212 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
213 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
214 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
215 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
216 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
217 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
218
219 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
220 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
221 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
222 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
223 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
224 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
225 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
226 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
227 specified in the method definition.
228
229 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
230
231 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
232 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
233 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
234 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
235 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
236 correct type rather than as a String.
237
238 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
239 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
240 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
241 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
242 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
243 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
244 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
245
246 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
247 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
248 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
249
250 SIDE EFFECTS:
251
252 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
253 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
254 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
255 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
256 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
257
258 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
259 clean-up, which I completed.
260
261 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
262
263 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
264 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
265 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
266 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
267 the specified value to that property's type.
268
269 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
270 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
271 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
272 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
273
274 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
275 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
276 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
277 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
278 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
279 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
280
|
281 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
282 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
283 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
284 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
285 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
286 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
287 encoding of parameter values.
288
289 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
290 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
291 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
292 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
293 have defaulted to String type.

294 karl 1.70
295 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
296 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
|
297 karl 1.72
|
298 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
299 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
300 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
301 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
302 the server.
|
303 karl 1.72
304 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
305 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
306
|
307 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
308 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
309 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
310 operations.
311
312 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
313 karl 1.74
314 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
315 definition of CIMFlavors.
|
316 karl 1.76
|
317 kumpf 1.68
|
318 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
319 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
320 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
321 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
322 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
323 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
324 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
325
326 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
327 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
328 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
329 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
330 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
331 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
332 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
333 a single buffer.
334
335 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
336 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
337 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
338 various encoders and decoders, etc.
339 kumpf 1.75
340 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
341 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
342 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
343 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
344
345 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
346 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
347 validated.
|
348 karl 1.76
349 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
350 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
351 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
|
352 karl 1.78
|
353 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
354 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
355
356 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
357 HTTPConnector* connector;
358 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
359 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
360
361 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
362
363 With this change, the client application now looks like:
364
365 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
366
367 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
368
369 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
370 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
371 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
372 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
373 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
374 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
375 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
376 rather than in the constructor.
377
378 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
379 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
380 included in the Pegasus build.
|
381 kumpf 1.79
|
382 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
383 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
384 kumpf 1.75
|
385 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
386 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
387 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
388 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
389 for that purpose.
390
391 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
392
393 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
394 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
395 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
396 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
397 line number of the CIMException originator.
398
399 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
400
401 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
402 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
403 input and writes the String to the trace file.
404
405 (ex.)
406 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
407 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
408
409 or use the following new macro:
410 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
411
|
412 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
413 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
414 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
415 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
416 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
417 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
418 ramnath 1.81
419 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
420 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
421 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
422 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
423 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
424 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
425 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
426 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
427 ramnath 1.80
|
428 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
429 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
430 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
431 in the Windows service work thread.
432
|
433 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
434 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
435 executable
436
437 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
438 executable.
|
439 kumpf 1.84
440 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
441 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
442 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
443 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
444 an integer of the specified size.
445
|
446 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
447 in XmlReader.cpp.
448
|
449 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
450 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
451 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
452 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
453
|
454 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
455 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
456 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
457 karl 1.88
458 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
459 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
460
|
461 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
462 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
463 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
464 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
465 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
466 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
467 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
468 linked into the server.
|
469 karl 1.88
|
470 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
471 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
472 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
473
|
474 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
475 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
476 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
477 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
478 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
479 karl 1.92
480 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
481 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
482 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.

|
486 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
487
488 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
489 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
490 may temporarily be in side branches.
491 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
492 karl 1.53
493 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
494 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
495 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
496 which is the current file based repository.
497
498 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
499 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
500 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
501 in the future.
|
502 karl 1.52
|
503 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
504 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
505 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
506 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
507 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
508 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
509
|
510 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
511 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
512 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
513 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
514 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
515 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
516
|
517 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
518 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
519 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
520 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
521 program.
522
|
523 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
524 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
525 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
526 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
527 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
528 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
529 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
530 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
531 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
532
533 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
534 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
535 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
536
537 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
538 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
539 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
540 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
541
542 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
543 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
544 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
545 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
546
547 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
548 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
549
550 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

558 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
559
|
560 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
561 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
562
563 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
564 mike 1.51 =======
565 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
566 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
567
568 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
569 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
570 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
571 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
572 should not affect any current work.
573 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
574 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
575 loads the 2.5 schema.
576
577 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
578 on XML output.
579
580 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
581 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
582 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
583 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
584 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
585 mike 1.51
586 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
587 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
588 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
589 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
590 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
591 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
592 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
593 to show user friendly error/status messages.
594
595 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
596 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
597 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
598 generating debug output.
599
600 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
601 xml when it generates xml output.
602
603 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
604 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
605 repository implementation.
606 mike 1.51
607 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
608
609 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
610
611 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
612
613 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
614
615 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.
616
617 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
618 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
619
620 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
621
622 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.
623
624 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
625
626 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
627 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
628 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
629
630 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
631 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
632 input and output can be written in a trace file.
633
634 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
635 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
636 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
637
638 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
639 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
640 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
641 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
642 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
643 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
644 are modified to implement above messages.
645
646 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
647 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
648 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
649 indication to consumer. This program needs
650 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
651 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
652 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
653 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
654 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
655 below:
656
657 //====================================================================
658 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
659 //====================================================================
660 [Description (
661 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
662 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
663 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
664
665 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
666 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
667 a provider library.
668
669 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
670 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
671 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
672 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
673 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
674 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
675 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
676 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
677 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
678 later).
679
680 Also added are two test programs:
681
682 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
683 CIMParamValue class.
684
685 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
686 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
687 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
688 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
689 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
690 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
691
692 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
693 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
694 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
695 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
696 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
697 and to verify the authentication.
698
699 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
700 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
701 yet linked into the build.
702
703 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
704 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
705 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
706 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
707 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
708 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
709 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
710
711 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
712 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
713 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
714 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
715 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
716 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
717 provider file path name.
718
719 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
720 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
721 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
722 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
723 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
724 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
725 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
726 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
727
728 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
729 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
730 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
731 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
732 mike 1.51
733 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
734 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
735 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
736 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
737
738 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
739 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
740 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
741 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
742 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
743 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
744 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
745 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
746 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
747
748 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
749 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
750
751 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
752
753 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
754 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
755 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
756 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
757 in make files.
758
759 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
760 because getting an error in 26
761
762 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
763 whose types are references. These reference values must be
764 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
765 tag structure.
766
767 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
768 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
769 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
770
771 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
772 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
773 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
774 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
775 of String type and a key of reference type.
776
777 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
778 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
779 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
780 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
781 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
782 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
783 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
784 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
785
786 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
787 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
788 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
789 reference type.
790
791 In this example:
792
793 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
794
795 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
796 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
797 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
798 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
799 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
800
801 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
802 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
803 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
804 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
805 correctly.
806
807 The files that have been modified to make this change are
808 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
809
810 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
811 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
812 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
813 CIMOM version.
814
815 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
816 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
817 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
818 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
819 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
820 definition to determine the key property types.
821
822 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
823 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
824 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
825 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
826
827 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
828 (instanceName).
829
830 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
831 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
832 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
833 relevant intrinsic methods.
834
835 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
836 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
837 mike 1.51
838 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
839 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
840 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
841 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
842 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
843 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
844 nsk platform links.
845
846 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
847 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
848 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
849 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
850 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
851 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
852 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
853
854 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
855 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
856 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
857 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
858 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
859 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
860 in that same form, without special character encoding.
861
862 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
863 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
864 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
865 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
866
867 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
868 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
869 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
870 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
871 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
872
873 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
874 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
875 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
876 be updated to use this class.
877
878 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
879 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
880 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
881 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
882 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
883
884 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
885 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
886 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
887 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
888 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
889 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
890
891 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
892
893 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
894 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
895 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
896 CIMNamedInstance
897 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
898 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
899 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
900 mike 1.51
901 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
902
903 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
904 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
905 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
906 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
907 functionality.
908
909 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
910
911 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
912 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
913 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
914 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
915 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
916 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
917 the entire instance.
918
919 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
920 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
921 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
922
923 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
924 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
925 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
926
927 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
928 ModifyInstance correctly.
929
930 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
931 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
932 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
933 the DMTF specification.
934
935 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
936 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
937 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
938 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
939
940 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
941
942 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
943 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
944 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
945 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
946 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
947 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
948 the entire instance.
949
950 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
951 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
952 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
953 be used to update the instance.
954
955 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
956 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
957 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
958
959 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
960 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
961 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
962
963 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
964 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
965 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
966 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
967 without the standard (std) namespace.
968
969 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
970 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
971 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
972
973 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
974 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
975 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
976 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
977 following command before starting cimserver:
978
979 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
980
981 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
982 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
983 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
984 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
985 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
986 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
987 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
988
989 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
990 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
991 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
992
993 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
994 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
995 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
996 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
997 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
998
999 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1000 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1001 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1002 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1003 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1004 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1005 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1006
1007 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1008 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1009
1010 Authentication and User Management:
1011 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1012 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1013 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1014 generated password file.
1015
1016 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1017 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1018
1019 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1020 management and authorization functionality.
1021
1022 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1023 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1024
1025 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1026 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1027 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1028
1029 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1030 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1031 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1032
1033 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1034 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1035 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1036 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1037 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1038 or change in provider registration.
1039
1040 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1041 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1042 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1043 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1044
1045 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1046 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1047 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1048 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1049 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1050 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1051 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1052 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1053 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1054 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1055 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1056 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1057 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1058 mike 1.50
|
1059 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1060 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1061
1062 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1067 1.1
1068
1069 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1070 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1071 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1072
1073 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1074 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1075
1076 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1077 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1078
1079 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1080 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1081 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1082 and SimpleThread.
1083
1084 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1085 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1086 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1087 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1088 the test script.
1089
1090 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1091 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1092 and
1093 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1094 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1095 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1096
1097 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1098 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1099 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1100 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1101 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1102 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1103 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1104 information on running the test script.
1105
1106 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1107 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1108 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1109
1110 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1111 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1112 that
1113 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1114 password.
1115 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1116 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1117 build.
1118 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1119 modified to integrate with the framework.

1145
|
1146 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1147
1148 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1149 ids to queue pointers).
1150

|
1173 karl 1.16
1174 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1175 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1176 mike 1.26
|
1177 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1178 5988.
1179 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1180 the DMTF.
|
1181 mike 1.26
|
1182 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1183 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1184 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1185 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1186 mike 1.26
|
1187 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1188 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1189 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1190 mike 1.26
|
1191 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1192 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1193 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1194 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1195 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1196 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1197 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1198 mike 1.26
|
1199 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1200 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1201 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1202 mike 1.26
|
1203 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1204 mike 1.26
|
1205 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1206 modifyClass,
|
1207 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1208 mike 1.26
|
1209 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1210 directory. These
1211 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1212 CIMProviderStub has
|
1213 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1214 mike 1.26
|
1215 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1216 mike 1.26
|
1217 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1218 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1219 mike 1.26
1220 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1221 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1222
1223 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1224 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1225 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1226 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1227 (MEB)
|
1228 mike 1.26
|
1229 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1230
|
1231 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1232 AssociationName
|
1233 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1234 pages.
1235
|
1236 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1237 sage 1.31
1238 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1239 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1240 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1241 variables.
|
1242 mike 1.32
1243 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1244 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1245 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1246 kumpf 1.34
1247 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1248 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1249 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1250 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1251 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1252 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1253 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1254 karl 1.35
1255 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1256 tests for stack and queue.

1332 karl 1.1
1333 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1334 qualifiers, methods.
1335 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1336 methods.
1337 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1338 qualifiers and to
1339 remove qualifiers.
1340 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1341 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1342 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1343 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1344 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1345 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1346 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
