3 karl 1.95 Version 1.09 - Started 5 April 2002
4 TAG: Version_1_09.
5
6 1. 5 April 2002 (KS) Update version to 1.09. TAG, and took snapshot.
7
|
8 kumpf 1.96 2. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Apr 2002 - Modified the CIMOperationResponseMessage
9 class and its subclasses to contain a CIMException instead of a
10 CIMStatusCode and String description. This allows extra information in
11 a CIMException, such as file name and line number, to be carried
12 internally throughout the system.
13
14 This change creates a single place where CIMExceptions are converted
15 to an error code and description to be written out in XML. This
16 single place controls the ability to tune what gets included in the
17 error description, as well as providing a convenient place to trace
18 errors that get returned to clients. In particular, client applications
19 currently see messages that contain redundant error code information,
20 such as:
21
22 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One or more parameter values passed
23 to the method were invalid: "CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One
24 or more parameter values passed to the method were invalid:
25 "Unrecognized parameter "Bogus"""
26
27 The CIMOperationResponseMessage change will allow the redundant
28 information to be eliminated from the messages.

29 karl 1.97
30 3. (KS) 7 April 2002- Minor really bad hack to systemwindows.cpp getcurrenttime
31 after roger fixed timevalue.
|
32 kumpf 1.96
|
33 kumpf 1.98 4. (DME) 7 April 2002 Added support for HPUX running on IA64 hardware.
34
|
35 kumpf 1.99 5. (DME) 7 April 2002 Update master result file for MOF Compiler CLI tests.
|
36 kumpf 1.100 Update master result file of wbemexec CLI tests.
|
37 kumpf 1.99
|
38 ramnath 1.101 6. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 8 Apr 2002 - Modified a libraries.mak file in the src/Pegasus/Security/Authentication/tests directory in order to fix the
39 build on Tru64.
40
|
41 kumpf 1.102 7. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Apr 2002 - The RETURNVALUE and IRETURNVALUE elements
42 of the XML encoding of operation responses had been treated as mandatory.
43 The client response decoder has been updated to make those elements
44 optional for operations that do not require a return value. The server
45 response encoder has been updated not to include those elements when the
46 request does not include a return value.
47
|
48 kumpf 1.103 8. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 9 Apr 2002 - Updated the Instance, Association, and
49 Class provider interfaces to use CIMPropertyList instead of Array<String>
50 for the propertyList parameters. All providers that implement a method
51 with a propertyList parameter must be modified in accordance with this
52 change. All providers linked into the Pegasus build have been updated.
53
|
54 kumpf 1.105 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTP error message to be
|
55 kumpf 1.104 returned to the CIMClient when an HTTP error response is returned.
56 Added a method to parse the status line of an HTTP response.
|
57 kumpf 1.105
58 10. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Changed the MessageQueue::getQueueName()
59 method from virtual to non-virtual, and removed that method definition
60 from all the subclasses. To make sure that the MessageQueue class gets
61 the queue name value, the default value for the queue name parameter to
62 the MessageQueue constructor was removed. Constants were defined in
63 Constants.h for all the queue names currently used in Pegasus. The
64 places where those queue names were being used for lookup were also
65 changed to use the constants.
|
66 kumpf 1.104
|
67 kumpf 1.106 11. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTPError exception to
68 report non-200-OK HTTP responses back to client applications. Added
69 an HTTPErrorMessage class to hold information about an HTTP error
70 response. Added support in the CIMOperationResponseDecoder to
71 process HTTP error responses and turn them into HTTPErrorMessages.
72 Added support in CIMClient to process HTTPErrorMessages and throw an
73 HTTP error. This functionality required fundamental changes in the
74 way CIMClient processes messages. It can no longer search its queue
75 for a message of the expected type. Instead, is assumes that no
76 messages should be on its queue unless it has sent a request to the
77 encoder. In that case, it assumes that any message on its queue is
78 the response to that request.
79
|
80 kumpf 1.107 12. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Extended versioning strategy
81 to allow platform-specific version strings.
82
|
83 kumpf 1.108 13. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Renamed shared library for
84 ManagedSystem/OperatingSystem provider so that it would not
85 conflict with library name of generic/OperatingSystem provider.
86
|
87 kumpf 1.109 14. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Added compile flags _REENTRANT and RWSTD_MULTI_THREAD flags for platform_HPUX_PARISC_ACC.
88
|
89 kumpf 1.108
|
90 kumpf 1.110 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Feb 2002 - HP-Nag: Added PAM based user
91 authentication module. The implementation is available only on Unix
92 platforms. The PAM module is optional and it can be built by setting
93 the environment variable PEGASUS_PAM_AUTHENTICATION."
94
|
95 kumpf 1.111 16. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented static methods
96 Uint64 getDifference(CIMDateTime, CIMDateTime), to get the difference
97 between two CIMDateTimes and CIMDateTime getCurrentDateTime(), to return
98 the current date time as CIMDateTime in the CIMDateTime class. Also added
99 method Boolean isInterval(), to check if the CIMDateTime object is an
100 interval.
101
|
102 kumpf 1.112 17. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Improved Consumer interface with
103 indications. Now indications can be displayed using sample
104 DisplayConsumer. To test, create Handler with destination as
105 localhost:5988/logicalname. Create a file consumer_list.dat in your
106 PEGASUS_HOME directory and then ass entry as follows:
107 logicalname = DisplayConsumer
108 This will help ConsumerTable to load the DisplayConsumer to consume
109 the indication passed through ExportServer (CIMExportRequestDispathcer).
110
|
111 kumpf 1.113 18. (Yi Zhou - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented sending message of provider
112 registration notification to subscription service.
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 kumpf 1.118 20. (KS) 18 Apr 2002 -Incorporated tomof client into the build. Includes
|
136 karl 1.115 usage and help.
137 This program outputs mof or xml from repository either as a client
138 or direct to the repository.
139
|
140 kumpf 1.118 21. (KS) 18 Apr 2002 - Changed all FIXME, etc. in compiler to ATTN with
|
141 karl 1.115 priorities.
|
142 kumpf 1.114
|
143 kumpf 1.118 22. (MM) 18 Apr 2002 - Associator provider handling
|
144 sage 1.116
|
145 kumpf 1.118 23. (MM) 18 Apr 2002 - HiRes pegasus_gettimeofday() for Windows needed
|
146 sage 1.117 for performance statistics.
|
147 kumpf 1.118
148 24. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Apr 2002 - Removed the "match" code in the
149 String class which had a dependency on the TCL license. Where this
150 code was being used to match HTTP headers, I replaced the call to
151 String::matchNoCase() with specific logic to check for the namespace
152 in an HTTP extension header. For example, if the allowNamespacePrefix
153 argument is true and the search tag is "Tag", HTTPMessage::lookupHeader
154 will match "Tag" and "45-Tag", but not "abcTag". This behavior more
155 closely models the intent of the String match in this case and is
156 therefore more correct.
|
157 sage 1.117
|
158 kumpf 1.119 25. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 20 Apr 2002 - Added an instance of
159 PegasusVersion.h to each product component. This was done
160 to support component level version tracking.
161
|
162 sage 1.120 26. (MM) 22 Apr 2002 - Performance Measurement Implementation

176 karl 1.59
177 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
178 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
179 TAG: VERSION_1_07
180
181 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
182
|
183 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
184 karl 1.59
|
185 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
186 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
187 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
188 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
189 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
190 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
191 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
192
193 For more information look in to the following files:
194 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
195 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
196 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
197 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
198
199 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
200 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
201 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
202 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
203 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
204 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
205 karl 1.63
|
206 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
207 karl 1.62
|
208 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
209 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
210
|
211 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
212 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
213 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
214 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
215 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
216
|
217 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
218 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
219 will be deleted.
220
|
221 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
222
223 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
224 karl 1.66
|
225 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
226 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
227 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
228 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
229 for remote clients.
|
230 karl 1.66
|
231 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
232 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
233 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
234 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
235 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
236 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
237 values.
238
239 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
240
241 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
242 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
243 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
244 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
245 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
246 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
247
248 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
249 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
250 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
251 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
252 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
253 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
254 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
255 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
256 specified in the method definition.
257
258 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
259
260 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
261 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
262 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
263 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
264 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
265 correct type rather than as a String.
266
267 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
268 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
269 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
270 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
271 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
272 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
273 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
274
275 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
276 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
277 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
278
279 SIDE EFFECTS:
280
281 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
282 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
283 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
284 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
285 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
286
287 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
288 clean-up, which I completed.
289
290 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
291
292 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
293 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
294 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
295 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
296 the specified value to that property's type.
297
298 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
299 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
300 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
301 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
302
303 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
304 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
305 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
306 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
307 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
308 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
309
|
310 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
311 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
312 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
313 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
314 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
315 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
316 encoding of parameter values.
317
318 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
319 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
320 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
321 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
322 have defaulted to String type.

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

441 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
442 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
443 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
444 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
445 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
446 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
447 ramnath 1.81
448 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
449 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
450 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
451 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
452 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
453 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
454 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
455 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.

456 ramnath 1.80
|
457 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
458 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
459 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
460 in the Windows service work thread.
461
|
462 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
463 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
464 executable
465
466 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
467 executable.
|
468 kumpf 1.84
469 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
470 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
471 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
472 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
473 an integer of the specified size.
474
|
475 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
476 in XmlReader.cpp.
477
|
478 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
479 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
480 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
481 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
482
|
483 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
484 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
485 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
486 karl 1.88
487 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
488 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
489
|
490 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
491 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
492 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
493 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
494 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
495 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
496 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
497 linked into the server.
|
498 karl 1.88
|
499 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
500 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
501 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
502
|
503 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
504 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
505 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
506 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
507 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
508 karl 1.92
509 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
510 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
511 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.

514 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
515 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
516
517 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
518 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
519 may temporarily be in side branches.
520 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
521 karl 1.53
522 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
523 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
524 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
525 which is the current file based repository.
526
527 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
528 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
529 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
530 in the future.

531 karl 1.52
|
532 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
533 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
534 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
535 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
536 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
537 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
538
|
539 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
540 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
541 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
542 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
543 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
544 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
545
|
546 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
547 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
548 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
549 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
550 program.
551
|
552 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
553 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
554 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
555 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
556 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
557 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
558 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
559 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
560 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
561
562 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
563 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
564 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
565
566 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
567 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
568 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
569 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
570
571 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
572 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
573 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
574 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
575
576 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
577 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
578
579 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

587 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
588
|
589 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
590 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
591
592 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
593 mike 1.51 =======
594 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
595 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
596
597 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
598 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
599 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
600 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
601 should not affect any current work.
602 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
603 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
604 loads the 2.5 schema.
605
606 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
607 on XML output.
608
609 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
610 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
611 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
612 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
613 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
614 mike 1.51
615 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
616 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
617 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
618 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
619 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
620 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
621 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
622 to show user friendly error/status messages.
623
624 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
625 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
626 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
627 generating debug output.
628
629 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
630 xml when it generates xml output.
631
632 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
633 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
634 repository implementation.
635 mike 1.51
636 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
637
638 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
639
640 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
641
642 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
643
644 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.
645
646 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
647 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
648
649 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
650
651 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.
652
653 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
654
655 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
656 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
657 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
658
659 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
660 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
661 input and output can be written in a trace file.
662
663 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
664 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
665 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
666
667 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
668 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
669 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
670 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
671 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
672 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
673 are modified to implement above messages.
674
675 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
676 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
677 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
678 indication to consumer. This program needs
679 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
680 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
681 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
682 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
683 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
684 below:
685
686 //====================================================================
687 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
688 //====================================================================
689 [Description (
690 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
691 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
692 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
693
694 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
695 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
696 a provider library.
697
698 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
699 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
700 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
701 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
702 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
703 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
704 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
705 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
706 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
707 later).
708
709 Also added are two test programs:
710
711 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
712 CIMParamValue class.
713
714 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
715 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
716 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
717 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
718 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
719 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
720
721 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
722 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
723 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
724 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
725 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
726 and to verify the authentication.
727
728 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
729 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
730 yet linked into the build.
731
732 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
733 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
734 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
735 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
736 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
737 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
738 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
739
740 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
741 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
742 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
743 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
744 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
745 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
746 provider file path name.
747
748 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
749 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
750 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
751 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
752 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
753 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
754 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
755 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
756
757 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
758 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
759 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
760 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
761 mike 1.51
762 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
763 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
764 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
765 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
766
767 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
768 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
769 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
770 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
771 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
772 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
773 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
774 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
775 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
776
777 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
778 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
779
780 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
781
782 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
783 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
784 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
785 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
786 in make files.
787
788 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
789 because getting an error in 26
790
791 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
792 whose types are references. These reference values must be
793 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
794 tag structure.
795
796 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
797 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
798 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
799
800 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
801 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
802 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
803 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
804 of String type and a key of reference type.
805
806 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
807 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
808 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
809 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
810 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
811 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
812 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
813 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
814
815 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
816 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
817 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
818 reference type.
819
820 In this example:
821
822 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
823
824 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
825 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
826 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
827 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
828 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
829
830 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
831 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
832 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
833 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
834 correctly.
835
836 The files that have been modified to make this change are
837 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
838
839 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
840 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
841 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
842 CIMOM version.
843
844 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
845 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
846 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
847 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
848 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
849 definition to determine the key property types.
850
851 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
852 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
853 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
854 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
855
856 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
857 (instanceName).
858
859 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
860 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
861 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
862 relevant intrinsic methods.
863
864 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
865 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
866 mike 1.51
867 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
868 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
869 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
870 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
871 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
872 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
873 nsk platform links.
874
875 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
876 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
877 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
878 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
879 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
880 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
881 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
882
883 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
884 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
885 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
886 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
887 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
888 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
889 in that same form, without special character encoding.
890
891 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
892 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
893 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
894 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
895
896 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
897 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
898 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
899 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
900 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
901
902 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
903 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
904 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
905 be updated to use this class.
906
907 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
908 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
909 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
910 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
911 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
912
913 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
914 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
915 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
916 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
917 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
918 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
919
920 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
921
922 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
923 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
924 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
925 CIMNamedInstance
926 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
927 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
928 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
929 mike 1.51
930 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
931
932 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
933 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
934 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
935 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
936 functionality.
937
938 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
939
940 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
941 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
942 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
943 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
944 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
945 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
946 the entire instance.
947
948 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
949 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
950 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
951
952 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
953 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
954 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
955
956 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
957 ModifyInstance correctly.
958
959 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
960 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
961 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
962 the DMTF specification.
963
964 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
965 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
966 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
967 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
968
969 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
970
971 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
972 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
973 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
974 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
975 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
976 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
977 the entire instance.
978
979 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
980 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
981 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
982 be used to update the instance.
983
984 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
985 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
986 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
987
988 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
989 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
990 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
991
992 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
993 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
994 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
995 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
996 without the standard (std) namespace.
997
998 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
999 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1000 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1001
1002 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1003 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
1004 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
1005 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1006 following command before starting cimserver:
1007
1008 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1009
1010 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1011 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1012 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1013 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1014 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
1015 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1016 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1017
1018 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1019 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1020 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1021
1022 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1023 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1024 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1025 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1026 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1027
1028 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1029 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1030 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1031 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1032 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1033 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1034 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1035
1036 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1037 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1038
1039 Authentication and User Management:
1040 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1041 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1042 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1043 generated password file.
1044
1045 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1046 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1047
1048 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1049 management and authorization functionality.
1050
1051 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1052 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1053
1054 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1055 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1056 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1057
1058 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1059 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1060 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1061
1062 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1063 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1064 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1065 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1066 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1067 or change in provider registration.
1068
1069 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1070 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1071 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1072 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1073
1074 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1075 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1076 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1077 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1078 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1079 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1080 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1081 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1082 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1083 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1084 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1085 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1086 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1087 mike 1.50
|
1088 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1089 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1090
1091 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1096 1.1
1097
1098 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1099 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1100 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1101
1102 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1103 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1104
1105 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1106 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1107
1108 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1109 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1110 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1111 and SimpleThread.
1112
1113 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1114 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1115 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1116 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1117 the test script.
1118
1119 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1120 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1121 and
1122 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1123 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1124 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1125
1126 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1127 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1128 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1129 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1130 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1131 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1132 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1133 information on running the test script.
1134
1135 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1136 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1137 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1138
1139 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1140 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1141 that
1142 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1143 password.
1144 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1145 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1146 build.
1147 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1148 modified to integrate with the framework.

1174
|
1175 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1176
1177 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1178 ids to queue pointers).
1179
|
1180 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler
1181 and Dispatcher.
1182
|
1183 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher
1184 and

|
1202 karl 1.16
1203 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1204 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1205 mike 1.26
|
1206 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1207 5988.
1208 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1209 the DMTF.
|
1210 mike 1.26
|
1211 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1212 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1213 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1214 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1215 mike 1.26
|
1216 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1217 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1218 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1219 mike 1.26
|
1220 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1221 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1222 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1223 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1224 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1225 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1226 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1227 mike 1.26
|
1228 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1229 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1230 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1231 mike 1.26
|
1232 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1233 mike 1.26
|
1234 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1235 modifyClass,
|
1236 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1237 mike 1.26
|
1238 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1239 directory. These
1240 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1241 CIMProviderStub has
|
1242 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1243 mike 1.26
|
1244 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1245 mike 1.26
|
1246 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1247 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1248 mike 1.26
1249 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1250 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1251
1252 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1253 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1254 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1255 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1256 (MEB)
|
1257 mike 1.26
|
1258 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1259
|
1260 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1261 AssociationName
|
1262 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1263 pages.
1264
|
1265 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1266 sage 1.31
1267 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1268 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1269 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1270 variables.
|
1271 mike 1.32
1272 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1273 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1274 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1275 kumpf 1.34
1276 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1277 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1278 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1279 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1280 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1281 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1282 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1283 karl 1.35
1284 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1285 tests for stack and queue.

|
1361 karl 1.1
1362 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1363 qualifiers, methods.
1364 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1365 methods.
1366 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1367 qualifiers and to
1368 remove qualifiers.
1369 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1370 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1371 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1372 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1373 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1374 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1375 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
