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.
|
134 karl 1.115
135 20.(KS) 18 Apr 2002 -Incorporated tomof client into the build. Includes
136 usage and help.
137 This program outputs mof or xml from repository either as a client
138 or direct to the repository.
139
140 21.(KS) 18 Apr 2002 - Changed all FIXME, etc. in compiler to ATTN with
141 priorities.

145 karl 1.93 Version 1.08 working towards 1.1 - Started 27 March 2002
|
146 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because
147 of problems with the CVS repository
|
148 karl 1.93
|
149 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
|
150 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08.
151
|
152 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass,
153 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.

155 karl 1.59
156 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
157 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
158 TAG: VERSION_1_07
159
160 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
161
|
162 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
163 karl 1.59
|
164 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
165 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
166 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
167 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
168 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
169 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
170 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
171
172 For more information look in to the following files:
173 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
174 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
175 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
176 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
177
178 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
179 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
180 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
181 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
182 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
183 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
184 karl 1.63
|
185 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
186 karl 1.62
|
187 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
188 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
189
|
190 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
191 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
192 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
193 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
194 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
195
|
196 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
197 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
198 will be deleted.
199
|
200 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
201
202 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
203 karl 1.66
|
204 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
205 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
206 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
207 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
208 for remote clients.
|
209 karl 1.66
|
210 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
211 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
212 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
213 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
214 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
215 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
216 values.
217
218 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
219
220 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
221 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
222 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
223 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
224 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
225 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
226
227 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
228 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
229 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
230 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
231 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
232 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
233 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
234 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
235 specified in the method definition.
236
237 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
238
239 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
240 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
241 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
242 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
243 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
244 correct type rather than as a String.
245
246 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
247 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
248 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
249 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
250 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
251 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
252 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
253
254 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
255 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
256 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
257
258 SIDE EFFECTS:
259
260 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
261 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
262 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
263 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
264 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
265
266 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
267 clean-up, which I completed.
268
269 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
270
271 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
272 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
273 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
274 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
275 the specified value to that property's type.
276
277 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
278 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
279 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
280 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
281
282 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
283 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
284 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
285 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
286 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
287 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
288
|
289 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
290 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
291 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
292 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
293 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
294 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
295 encoding of parameter values.
296
297 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
298 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
299 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
300 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
301 have defaulted to String type.

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

447 kumpf 1.84
448 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
449 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
450 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
451 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
452 an integer of the specified size.
453
|
454 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
455 in XmlReader.cpp.
456
|
457 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
458 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
459 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
460 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
461

462 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
463 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
464 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
465 karl 1.88
466 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
467 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
468
|
469 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
470 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
471 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
472 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
473 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
474 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
475 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
476 linked into the server.
|
477 karl 1.88
|
478 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
479 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
480 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
481
|
482 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
483 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
484 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
485 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
486 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
487 karl 1.92
488 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
489 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
490 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.

|
494 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
495
496 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
497 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
498 may temporarily be in side branches.
499 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
500 karl 1.53
501 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
502 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
503 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
504 which is the current file based repository.
505
506 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
507 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
508 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
509 in the future.

510 karl 1.52
|
511 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
512 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
513 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
514 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
515 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
516 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
517
|
518 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
519 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
520 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
521 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
522 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
523 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
524
|
525 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
526 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
527 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
528 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
529 program.
530
|
531 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
532 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
533 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
534 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
535 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
536 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
537 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
538 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
539 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
540
541 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
542 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
543 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
544
545 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
546 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
547 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
548 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
549
550 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
551 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
552 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
553 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
554
555 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
556 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
557
558 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

567
|
568 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
569 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
570
571 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
572 mike 1.51 =======
573 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
574 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
575
576 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
577 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
578 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
579 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
580 should not affect any current work.
581 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
582 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
583 loads the 2.5 schema.
584
585 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
586 on XML output.
587
588 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
589 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
590 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
591 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
592 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
593 mike 1.51
594 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
595 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
596 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
597 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
598 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
599 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
600 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
601 to show user friendly error/status messages.
602
603 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
604 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
605 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
606 generating debug output.
607
608 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
609 xml when it generates xml output.
610
611 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
612 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
613 repository implementation.
614 mike 1.51
615 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
616
617 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
618
619 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
620
621 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
622
623 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.
624
625 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
626 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
627
628 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
629
630 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.
631
632 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
633
634 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
635 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
636 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
637
638 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
639 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
640 input and output can be written in a trace file.
641
642 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
643 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
644 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
645
646 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
647 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
648 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
649 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
650 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
651 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
652 are modified to implement above messages.
653
654 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
655 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
656 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
657 indication to consumer. This program needs
658 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
659 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
660 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
661 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
662 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
663 below:
664
665 //====================================================================
666 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
667 //====================================================================
668 [Description (
669 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
670 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
671 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
672
673 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
674 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
675 a provider library.
676
677 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
678 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
679 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
680 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
681 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
682 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
683 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
684 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
685 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
686 later).
687
688 Also added are two test programs:
689
690 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
691 CIMParamValue class.
692
693 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
694 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
695 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
696 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
697 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
698 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
699
700 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
701 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
702 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
703 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
704 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
705 and to verify the authentication.
706
707 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
708 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
709 yet linked into the build.
710
711 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
712 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
713 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
714 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
715 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
716 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
717 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
718
719 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
720 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
721 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
722 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
723 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
724 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
725 provider file path name.
726
727 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
728 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
729 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
730 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
731 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
732 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
733 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
734 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
735
736 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
737 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
738 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
739 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
740 mike 1.51
741 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
742 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
743 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
744 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
745
746 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
747 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
748 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
749 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
750 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
751 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
752 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
753 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
754 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
755
756 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
757 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
758
759 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
760
761 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
762 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
763 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
764 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
765 in make files.
766
767 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
768 because getting an error in 26
769
770 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
771 whose types are references. These reference values must be
772 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
773 tag structure.
774
775 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
776 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
777 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
778
779 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
780 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
781 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
782 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
783 of String type and a key of reference type.
784
785 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
786 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
787 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
788 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
789 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
790 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
791 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
792 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
793
794 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
795 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
796 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
797 reference type.
798
799 In this example:
800
801 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
802
803 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
804 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
805 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
806 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
807 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
808
809 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
810 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
811 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
812 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
813 correctly.
814
815 The files that have been modified to make this change are
816 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
817
818 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
819 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
820 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
821 CIMOM version.
822
823 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
824 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
825 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
826 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
827 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
828 definition to determine the key property types.
829
830 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
831 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
832 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
833 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
834
835 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
836 (instanceName).
837
838 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
839 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
840 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
841 relevant intrinsic methods.
842
843 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
844 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
845 mike 1.51
846 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
847 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
848 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
849 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
850 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
851 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
852 nsk platform links.
853
854 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
855 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
856 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
857 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
858 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
859 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
860 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
861
862 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
863 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
864 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
865 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
866 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
867 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
868 in that same form, without special character encoding.
869
870 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
871 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
872 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
873 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
874
875 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
876 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
877 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
878 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
879 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
880
881 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
882 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
883 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
884 be updated to use this class.
885
886 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
887 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
888 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
889 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
890 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
891
892 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
893 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
894 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
895 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
896 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
897 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
898
899 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
900
901 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
902 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
903 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
904 CIMNamedInstance
905 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
906 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
907 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
908 mike 1.51
909 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
910
911 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
912 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
913 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
914 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
915 functionality.
916
917 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
918
919 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
920 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
921 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
922 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
923 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
924 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
925 the entire instance.
926
927 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
928 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
929 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
930
931 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
932 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
933 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
934
935 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
936 ModifyInstance correctly.
937
938 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
939 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
940 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
941 the DMTF specification.
942
943 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
944 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
945 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
946 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
947
948 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
949
950 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
951 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
952 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
953 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
954 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
955 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
956 the entire instance.
957
958 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
959 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
960 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
961 be used to update the instance.
962
963 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
964 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
965 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
966
967 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
968 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
969 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
970
971 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
972 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
973 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
974 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
975 without the standard (std) namespace.
976
977 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
978 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
979 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
980
981 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
982 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
983 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
984 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
985 following command before starting cimserver:
986
987 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
988
989 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
990 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
991 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
992 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
993 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
994 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
995 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
996
997 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
998 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
999 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1000
1001 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1002 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1003 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1004 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1005 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1006
1007 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1008 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1009 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1010 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1011 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1012 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1013 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1014
1015 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1016 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1017
1018 Authentication and User Management:
1019 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1020 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1021 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1022 generated password file.
1023
1024 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1025 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1026
1027 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1028 management and authorization functionality.
1029
1030 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1031 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1032
1033 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1034 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1035 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1036
1037 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1038 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1039 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1040
1041 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1042 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1043 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1044 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1045 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1046 or change in provider registration.
1047
1048 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1049 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1050 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1051 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1052
1053 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1054 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1055 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1056 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1057 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1058 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1059 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1060 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1061 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1062 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1063 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1064 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1065 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1066 mike 1.50
|
1067 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1068 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1069
1070 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1075 1.1
1076
1077 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1078 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1079 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1080
1081 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1082 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1083
1084 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1085 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1086
1087 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1088 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1089 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1090 and SimpleThread.
1091
1092 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1093 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1094 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1095 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1096 the test script.
1097
1098 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1099 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1100 and
1101 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1102 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1103 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1104
1105 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1106 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1107 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1108 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1109 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1110 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1111 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1112 information on running the test script.
1113
1114 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1115 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1116 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1117
1118 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1119 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1120 that
1121 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1122 password.
1123 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1124 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1125 build.
1126 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1127 modified to integrate with the framework.

1153
|
1154 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1155
1156 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1157 ids to queue pointers).
1158
|
1159 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler
1160 and Dispatcher.
1161
|
1162 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher
1163 and

|
1181 karl 1.16
1182 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1183 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1184 mike 1.26
|
1185 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1186 5988.
1187 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1188 the DMTF.
|
1189 mike 1.26
|
1190 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1191 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1192 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1193 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1194 mike 1.26
|
1195 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1196 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1197 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1198 mike 1.26
|
1199 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1200 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1201 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1202 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1203 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1204 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1205 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1206 mike 1.26
|
1207 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1208 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1209 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1210 mike 1.26
|
1211 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1212 mike 1.26
|
1213 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1214 modifyClass,
|
1215 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1216 mike 1.26
|
1217 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1218 directory. These
1219 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1220 CIMProviderStub has
|
1221 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1222 mike 1.26
|
1223 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1224 mike 1.26
|
1225 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1226 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1227 mike 1.26
1228 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1229 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1230
1231 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1232 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1233 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1234 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1235 (MEB)
|
1236 mike 1.26
|
1237 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1238
|
1239 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1240 AssociationName
|
1241 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1242 pages.
1243
|
1244 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1245 sage 1.31
1246 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1247 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1248 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1249 variables.
|
1250 mike 1.32
1251 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1252 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1253 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1254 kumpf 1.34
1255 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1256 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1257 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1258 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1259 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1260 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1261 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1262 karl 1.35
1263 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1264 tests for stack and queue.

1340 karl 1.1
1341 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1342 qualifiers, methods.
1343 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1344 methods.
1345 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1346 qualifiers and to
1347 remove qualifiers.
1348 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1349 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1350 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1351 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1352 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1353 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1354 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
