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.
|
142 kumpf 1.114
|
143 sage 1.116 22.(MM) 18 Apr 2002 - Associator provider handling

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

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

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

443 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
444 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
445 executable
446
447 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
448 executable.
|
449 kumpf 1.84
450 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
451 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
452 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
453 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
454 an integer of the specified size.
455
|
456 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
457 in XmlReader.cpp.
458
|
459 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
460 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
461 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
462 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
463
|
464 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
465 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
466 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
467 karl 1.88
468 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
469 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
470
|
471 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
472 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
473 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
474 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
475 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
476 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
477 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
478 linked into the server.
|
479 karl 1.88
|
480 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
481 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
482 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
483
|
484 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
485 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
486 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
487 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
488 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
489 karl 1.92
490 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
491 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
492 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.

495 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
496 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
497
498 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
499 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
500 may temporarily be in side branches.
501 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
502 karl 1.53
503 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
504 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
505 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
506 which is the current file based repository.
507
508 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
509 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
510 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
511 in the future.
|
512 karl 1.52
|
513 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
514 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
515 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
516 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
517 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
518 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
519
|
520 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
521 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
522 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
523 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
524 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
525 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
526
|
527 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
528 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
529 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
530 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
531 program.
532
|
533 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
534 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
535 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
536 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
537 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
538 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
539 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
540 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
541 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
542
543 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
544 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
545 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
546
547 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
548 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
549 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
550 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
551
552 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
553 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
554 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
555 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
556
557 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
558 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
559
560 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

568 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
569
|
570 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
571 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
572
573 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
574 mike 1.51 =======
575 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
576 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
577
578 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
579 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
580 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
581 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
582 should not affect any current work.
583 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
584 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
585 loads the 2.5 schema.
586
587 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
588 on XML output.
589
590 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
591 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
592 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
593 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
594 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
595 mike 1.51
596 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
597 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
598 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
599 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
600 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
601 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
602 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
603 to show user friendly error/status messages.
604
605 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
606 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
607 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
608 generating debug output.
609
610 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
611 xml when it generates xml output.
612
613 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
614 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
615 repository implementation.
616 mike 1.51
617 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
618
619 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
620
621 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
622
623 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
624
625 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.
626
627 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
628 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
629
630 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
631
632 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.
633
634 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
635
636 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
637 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
638 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
639
640 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
641 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
642 input and output can be written in a trace file.
643
644 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
645 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
646 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
647
648 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
649 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
650 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
651 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
652 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
653 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
654 are modified to implement above messages.
655
656 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
657 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
658 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
659 indication to consumer. This program needs
660 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
661 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
662 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
663 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
664 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
665 below:
666
667 //====================================================================
668 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
669 //====================================================================
670 [Description (
671 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
672 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
673 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
674
675 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
676 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
677 a provider library.
678
679 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
680 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
681 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
682 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
683 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
684 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
685 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
686 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
687 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
688 later).
689
690 Also added are two test programs:
691
692 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
693 CIMParamValue class.
694
695 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
696 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
697 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
698 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
699 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
700 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
701
702 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
703 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
704 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
705 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
706 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
707 and to verify the authentication.
708
709 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
710 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
711 yet linked into the build.
712
713 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
714 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
715 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
716 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
717 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
718 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
719 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
720
721 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
722 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
723 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
724 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
725 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
726 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
727 provider file path name.
728
729 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
730 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
731 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
732 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
733 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
734 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
735 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
736 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
737
738 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
739 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
740 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
741 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
742 mike 1.51
743 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
744 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
745 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
746 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
747
748 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
749 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
750 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
751 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
752 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
753 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
754 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
755 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
756 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
757
758 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
759 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
760
761 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
762
763 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
764 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
765 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
766 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
767 in make files.
768
769 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
770 because getting an error in 26
771
772 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
773 whose types are references. These reference values must be
774 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
775 tag structure.
776
777 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
778 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
779 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
780
781 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
782 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
783 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
784 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
785 of String type and a key of reference type.
786
787 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
788 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
789 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
790 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
791 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
792 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
793 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
794 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
795
796 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
797 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
798 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
799 reference type.
800
801 In this example:
802
803 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
804
805 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
806 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
807 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
808 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
809 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
810
811 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
812 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
813 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
814 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
815 correctly.
816
817 The files that have been modified to make this change are
818 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
819
820 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
821 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
822 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
823 CIMOM version.
824
825 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
826 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
827 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
828 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
829 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
830 definition to determine the key property types.
831
832 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
833 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
834 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
835 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
836
837 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
838 (instanceName).
839
840 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
841 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
842 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
843 relevant intrinsic methods.
844
845 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
846 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
847 mike 1.51
848 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
849 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
850 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
851 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
852 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
853 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
854 nsk platform links.
855
856 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
857 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
858 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
859 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
860 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
861 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
862 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
863
864 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
865 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
866 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
867 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
868 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
869 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
870 in that same form, without special character encoding.
871
872 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
873 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
874 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
875 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
876
877 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
878 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
879 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
880 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
881 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
882
883 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
884 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
885 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
886 be updated to use this class.
887
888 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
889 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
890 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
891 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
892 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
893
894 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
895 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
896 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
897 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
898 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
899 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
900
901 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
902
903 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
904 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
905 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
906 CIMNamedInstance
907 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
908 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
909 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
910 mike 1.51
911 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
912
913 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
914 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
915 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
916 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
917 functionality.
918
919 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
920
921 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
922 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
923 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
924 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
925 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
926 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
927 the entire instance.
928
929 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
930 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
931 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
932
933 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
934 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
935 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
936
937 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
938 ModifyInstance correctly.
939
940 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
941 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
942 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
943 the DMTF specification.
944
945 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
946 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
947 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
948 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
949
950 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
951
952 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
953 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
954 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
955 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
956 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
957 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
958 the entire instance.
959
960 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
961 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
962 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
963 be used to update the instance.
964
965 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
966 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
967 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
968
969 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
970 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
971 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
972
973 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
974 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
975 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
976 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
977 without the standard (std) namespace.
978
979 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
980 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
981 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
982
983 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
984 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
985 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
986 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
987 following command before starting cimserver:
988
989 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
990
991 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
992 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
993 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
994 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
995 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
996 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
997 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
998
999 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1000 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1001 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1002
1003 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1004 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1005 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1006 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1007 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1008
1009 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1010 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1011 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1012 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1013 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1014 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1015 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1016
1017 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1018 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1019
1020 Authentication and User Management:
1021 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1022 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1023 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1024 generated password file.
1025
1026 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1027 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1028
1029 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1030 management and authorization functionality.
1031
1032 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1033 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1034
1035 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1036 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1037 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1038
1039 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1040 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1041 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1042
1043 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1044 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1045 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1046 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1047 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1048 or change in provider registration.
1049
1050 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1051 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1052 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1053 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1054
1055 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1056 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1057 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1058 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1059 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1060 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1061 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1062 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1063 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1064 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1065 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1066 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1067 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1068 mike 1.50
|
1069 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1070 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1071
1072 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1077 1.1
1078
1079 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1080 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1081 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1082
1083 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1084 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1085
1086 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1087 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1088
1089 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1090 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1091 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1092 and SimpleThread.
1093
1094 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1095 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1096 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1097 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1098 the test script.
1099
1100 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1101 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1102 and
1103 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1104 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1105 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1106
1107 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1108 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1109 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1110 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1111 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1112 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1113 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1114 information on running the test script.
1115
1116 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1117 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1118 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1119
1120 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1121 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1122 that
1123 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1124 password.
1125 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1126 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1127 build.
1128 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1129 modified to integrate with the framework.

1155
|
1156 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1157
1158 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1159 ids to queue pointers).
1160
|
1161 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler
1162 and Dispatcher.
1163
|
1164 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher

|
1183 karl 1.16
1184 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1185 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1186 mike 1.26
|
1187 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1188 5988.
1189 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1190 the DMTF.
|
1191 mike 1.26
|
1192 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1193 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1194 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1195 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1196 mike 1.26
|
1197 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1198 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1199 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1200 mike 1.26
|
1201 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1202 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1203 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1204 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1205 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1206 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1207 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1208 mike 1.26
|
1209 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1210 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1211 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1212 mike 1.26
|
1213 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1214 mike 1.26
|
1215 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1216 modifyClass,
|
1217 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1218 mike 1.26
|
1219 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1220 directory. These
1221 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1222 CIMProviderStub has
|
1223 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1224 mike 1.26
|
1225 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1226 mike 1.26
|
1227 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1228 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1229 mike 1.26
1230 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1231 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1232
1233 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1234 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1235 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1236 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1237 (MEB)
|
1238 mike 1.26
|
1239 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1240
|
1241 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1242 AssociationName
|
1243 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1244 pages.
1245
|
1246 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1247 sage 1.31
1248 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1249 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1250 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1251 variables.
|
1252 mike 1.32
1253 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1254 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1255 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1256 kumpf 1.34
1257 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1258 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1259 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1260 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1261 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1262 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1263 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1264 karl 1.35
1265 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1266 tests for stack and queue.

1342 karl 1.1
1343 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1344 qualifiers, methods.
1345 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1346 methods.
1347 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1348 qualifiers and to
1349 remove qualifiers.
1350 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1351 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1352 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1353 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1354 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1355 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1356 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
