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
144
|
145 sage 1.117 23.(MM) 18 Apr 2002 - HiRes pegasus_gettimeofday() for Windows needed
146 for performance statistics.

151 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because
152 of problems with the CVS repository
|
153 karl 1.93
|
154 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
|
155 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08.
156
|
157 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass,
158 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.

160 karl 1.59
161 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
162 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
163 TAG: VERSION_1_07
164
165 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
166
|
167 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
168 karl 1.59
|
169 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
170 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
171 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
172 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
173 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
174 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
175 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
176
177 For more information look in to the following files:
178 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
179 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
180 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
181 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
182
183 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
184 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
185 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
186 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
187 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
188 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
189 karl 1.63
|
190 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
191 karl 1.62
|
192 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
193 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
194
|
195 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
196 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
197 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
198 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
199 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
200
|
201 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
202 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
203 will be deleted.
204
|
205 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
206
207 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
208 karl 1.66
|
209 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
210 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
211 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
212 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
213 for remote clients.
|
214 karl 1.66
|
215 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
216 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
217 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
218 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
219 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
220 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
221 values.
222
223 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
224
225 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
226 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
227 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
228 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
229 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
230 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
231
232 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
233 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
234 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
235 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
236 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
237 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
238 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
239 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
240 specified in the method definition.
241
242 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
243
244 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
245 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
246 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
247 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
248 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
249 correct type rather than as a String.
250
251 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
252 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
253 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
254 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
255 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
256 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
257 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
258
259 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
260 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
261 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
262
263 SIDE EFFECTS:
264
265 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
266 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
267 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
268 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
269 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
270
271 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
272 clean-up, which I completed.
273
274 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
275
276 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
277 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
278 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
279 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
280 the specified value to that property's type.
281
282 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
283 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
284 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
285 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
286
287 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
288 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
289 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
290 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
291 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
292 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
293
|
294 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
295 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
296 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
297 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
298 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
299 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
300 encoding of parameter values.
301
302 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
303 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
304 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
305 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
306 have defaulted to String type.
|
307 karl 1.70
308 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
309 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
|
310 karl 1.72
|
311 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
312 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
313 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
314 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
315 the server.
|
316 karl 1.72
317 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
318 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
319
|
320 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
321 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
322 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
323 operations.
324
325 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
326 karl 1.74
327 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
328 definition of CIMFlavors.
|
329 karl 1.76
|
330 kumpf 1.68
|
331 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
332 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
333 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
334 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
335 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
336 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
337 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
338
339 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
340 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
341 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
342 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
343 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
344 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
345 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
346 a single buffer.
347
348 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
349 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
350 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
351 various encoders and decoders, etc.
352 kumpf 1.75
353 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
354 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
355 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
356 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
357
358 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
359 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
360 validated.
|
361 karl 1.76
362 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
363 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
364 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
|
365 karl 1.78
|
366 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
367 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
368
369 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
370 HTTPConnector* connector;
371 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
372 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
373
374 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
375
376 With this change, the client application now looks like:
377
378 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
379
380 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
381
382 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
383 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
384 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
385 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
386 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
387 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
388 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
389 rather than in the constructor.
390
391 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
392 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
393 included in the Pegasus build.
|
394 kumpf 1.79
|
395 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
396 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
397 kumpf 1.75
|
398 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
399 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
400 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
401 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
402 for that purpose.
403
404 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
405
406 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
407 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
408 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
409 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
410 line number of the CIMException originator.
411
412 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
413
414 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
415 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
416 input and writes the String to the trace file.
417
418 (ex.)
419 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
420 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
421
422 or use the following new macro:
423 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
424
|
425 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
426 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
427 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
428 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
429 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
430 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
431 ramnath 1.81
432 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
433 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
434 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
435 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
436 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
437 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
438 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
439 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
440 ramnath 1.80
|
441 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
442 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could

444 in the Windows service work thread.

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

|
499 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
500
501 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
502 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
503 may temporarily be in side branches.
504 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
505 karl 1.53
506 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
507 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
508 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
509 which is the current file based repository.
510
511 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
512 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
513 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
514 in the future.

515 karl 1.52
|
516 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
517 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
518 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
519 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
520 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
521 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
522
|
523 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
524 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
525 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
526 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
527 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
528 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
529
|
530 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
531 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
532 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
533 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
534 program.
535
|
536 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
537 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
538 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
539 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
540 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
541 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
542 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
543 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
544 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
545
546 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
547 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
548 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
549
550 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
551 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
552 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
553 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
554
555 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
556 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
557 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
558 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
559
560 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
561 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
562
563 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

572
|
573 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
574 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
575
576 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
577 mike 1.51 =======
578 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
579 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
580
581 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
582 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
583 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
584 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
585 should not affect any current work.
586 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
587 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
588 loads the 2.5 schema.
589
590 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
591 on XML output.
592
593 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
594 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
595 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
596 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
597 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
598 mike 1.51
599 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
600 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
601 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
602 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
603 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
604 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
605 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
606 to show user friendly error/status messages.
607
608 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
609 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
610 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
611 generating debug output.
612
613 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
614 xml when it generates xml output.
615
616 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
617 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
618 repository implementation.
619 mike 1.51
620 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
621
622 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
623
624 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
625
626 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
627
628 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.
629
630 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
631 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
632
633 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
634
635 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.
636
637 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
638
639 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
640 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
641 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
642
643 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
644 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
645 input and output can be written in a trace file.
646
647 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
648 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
649 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
650
651 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
652 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
653 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
654 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
655 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
656 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
657 are modified to implement above messages.
658
659 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
660 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
661 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
662 indication to consumer. This program needs
663 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
664 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
665 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
666 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
667 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
668 below:
669
670 //====================================================================
671 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
672 //====================================================================
673 [Description (
674 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
675 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
676 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
677
678 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
679 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
680 a provider library.
681
682 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
683 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
684 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
685 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
686 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
687 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
688 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
689 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
690 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
691 later).
692
693 Also added are two test programs:
694
695 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
696 CIMParamValue class.
697
698 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
699 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
700 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
701 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
702 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
703 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
704
705 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
706 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
707 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
708 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
709 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
710 and to verify the authentication.
711
712 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
713 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
714 yet linked into the build.
715
716 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
717 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
718 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
719 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
720 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
721 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
722 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
723
724 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
725 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
726 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
727 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
728 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
729 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
730 provider file path name.
731
732 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
733 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
734 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
735 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
736 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
737 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
738 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
739 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
740
741 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
742 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
743 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
744 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
745 mike 1.51
746 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
747 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
748 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
749 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
750
751 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
752 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
753 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
754 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
755 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
756 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
757 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
758 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
759 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
760
761 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
762 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
763
764 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
765
766 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
767 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
768 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
769 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
770 in make files.
771
772 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
773 because getting an error in 26
774
775 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
776 whose types are references. These reference values must be
777 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
778 tag structure.
779
780 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
781 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
782 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
783
784 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
785 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
786 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
787 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
788 of String type and a key of reference type.
789
790 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
791 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
792 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
793 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
794 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
795 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
796 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
797 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
798
799 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
800 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
801 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
802 reference type.
803
804 In this example:
805
806 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
807
808 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
809 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
810 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
811 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
812 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
813
814 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
815 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
816 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
817 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
818 correctly.
819
820 The files that have been modified to make this change are
821 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
822
823 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
824 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
825 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
826 CIMOM version.
827
828 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
829 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
830 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
831 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
832 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
833 definition to determine the key property types.
834
835 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
836 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
837 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
838 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
839
840 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
841 (instanceName).
842
843 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
844 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
845 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
846 relevant intrinsic methods.
847
848 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
849 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
850 mike 1.51
851 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
852 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
853 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
854 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
855 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
856 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
857 nsk platform links.
858
859 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
860 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
861 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
862 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
863 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
864 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
865 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
866
867 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
868 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
869 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
870 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
871 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
872 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
873 in that same form, without special character encoding.
874
875 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
876 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
877 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
878 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
879
880 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
881 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
882 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
883 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
884 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
885
886 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
887 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
888 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
889 be updated to use this class.
890
891 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
892 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
893 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
894 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
895 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
896
897 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
898 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
899 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
900 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
901 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
902 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
903
904 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
905
906 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
907 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
908 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
909 CIMNamedInstance
910 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
911 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
912 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
913 mike 1.51
914 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
915
916 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
917 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
918 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
919 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
920 functionality.
921
922 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
923
924 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
925 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
926 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
927 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
928 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
929 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
930 the entire instance.
931
932 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
933 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
934 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
935
936 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
937 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
938 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
939
940 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
941 ModifyInstance correctly.
942
943 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
944 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
945 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
946 the DMTF specification.
947
948 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
949 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
950 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
951 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
952
953 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
954
955 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
956 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
957 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
958 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
959 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
960 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
961 the entire instance.
962
963 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
964 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
965 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
966 be used to update the instance.
967
968 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
969 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
970 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
971
972 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
973 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
974 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
975
976 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
977 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
978 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
979 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
980 without the standard (std) namespace.
981
982 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
983 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
984 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
985
986 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
987 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
988 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
989 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
990 following command before starting cimserver:
991
992 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
993
994 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
995 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
996 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
997 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
998 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
999 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1000 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1001
1002 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1003 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1004 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1005
1006 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1007 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1008 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1009 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1010 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1011
1012 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1013 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1014 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1015 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1016 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1017 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1018 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1019
1020 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1021 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1022
1023 Authentication and User Management:
1024 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1025 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1026 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1027 generated password file.
1028
1029 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1030 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1031
1032 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1033 management and authorization functionality.
1034
1035 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1036 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1037
1038 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1039 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1040 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1041
1042 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1043 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1044 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1045
1046 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1047 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1048 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1049 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1050 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1051 or change in provider registration.
1052
1053 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1054 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1055 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1056 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1057
1058 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1059 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1060 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1061 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1062 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1063 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1064 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1065 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1066 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1067 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1068 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1069 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1070 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1071 mike 1.50
|
1072 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1073 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1074
1075 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1080 1.1
1081
1082 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1083 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1084 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1085
1086 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1087 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1088
1089 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1090 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1091
1092 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1093 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1094 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1095 and SimpleThread.
1096
1097 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1098 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1099 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1100 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1101 the test script.
1102
1103 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1104 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1105 and
1106 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1107 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1108 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1109
1110 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1111 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1112 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1113 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1114 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1115 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1116 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1117 information on running the test script.
1118
1119 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1120 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1121 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1122
1123 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1124 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1125 that
1126 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1127 password.
1128 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1129 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1130 build.
1131 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1132 modified to integrate with the framework.

1164 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler
1165 and Dispatcher.
1166
|
1167 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher

|
1186 karl 1.16
1187 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1188 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1189 mike 1.26
|
1190 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1191 5988.
1192 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1193 the DMTF.
|
1194 mike 1.26
|
1195 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1196 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1197 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1198 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1199 mike 1.26
|
1200 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1201 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1202 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1203 mike 1.26
|
1204 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1205 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1206 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1207 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1208 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1209 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1210 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1211 mike 1.26
|
1212 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1213 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1214 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1215 mike 1.26
|
1216 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1217 mike 1.26
|
1218 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1219 modifyClass,
|
1220 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1221 mike 1.26
|
1222 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1223 directory. These
1224 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1225 CIMProviderStub has
|
1226 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1227 mike 1.26
|
1228 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1229 mike 1.26
|
1230 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1231 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1232 mike 1.26
1233 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1234 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1235
1236 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1237 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1238 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1239 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1240 (MEB)
|
1241 mike 1.26
|
1242 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1243
|
1244 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1245 AssociationName
|
1246 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1247 pages.
1248
|
1249 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1250 sage 1.31
1251 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1252 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1253 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1254 variables.
|
1255 mike 1.32
1256 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1257 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1258 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1259 kumpf 1.34
1260 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1261 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1262 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1263 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1264 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1265 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1266 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1267 karl 1.35
1268 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1269 tests for stack and queue.

1345 karl 1.1
1346 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1347 qualifiers, methods.
1348 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1349 methods.
1350 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1351 qualifiers and to
1352 remove qualifiers.
1353 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1354 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1355 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1356 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1357 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1358 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1359 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
