4 TAG: Version_1_09.
5
6 1. 5 April 2002 (KS) Update version to 1.09. TAG, and took snapshot.

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

29 karl 1.97
30 3. (KS) 7 April 2002- Minor really bad hack to systemwindows.cpp getcurrenttime
31 after roger fixed timevalue.
|
32 kumpf 1.96
|
33 kumpf 1.98 4. (DME) 7 April 2002 Added support for HPUX running on IA64 hardware.
34
|
35 kumpf 1.99 5. (DME) 7 April 2002 Update master result file for MOF Compiler CLI tests.
|
36 kumpf 1.100 Update master result file of wbemexec CLI tests.
|
37 kumpf 1.99
|
38 ramnath 1.101 6. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 8 Apr 2002 - Modified a libraries.mak file in the src/Pegasus/Security/Authentication/tests directory in order to fix the
39 build on Tru64.
40
|
41 kumpf 1.102 7. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Apr 2002 - The RETURNVALUE and IRETURNVALUE elements
42 of the XML encoding of operation responses had been treated as mandatory.
43 The client response decoder has been updated to make those elements
44 optional for operations that do not require a return value. The server
45 response encoder has been updated not to include those elements when the
46 request does not include a return value.
47
|
48 kumpf 1.103 8. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 9 Apr 2002 - Updated the Instance, Association, and
49 Class provider interfaces to use CIMPropertyList instead of Array<String>
50 for the propertyList parameters. All providers that implement a method
51 with a propertyList parameter must be modified in accordance with this
52 change. All providers linked into the Pegasus build have been updated.
53
|
54 kumpf 1.105 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTP error message to be
|
55 kumpf 1.104 returned to the CIMClient when an HTTP error response is returned.
56 Added a method to parse the status line of an HTTP response.
|
57 kumpf 1.105
58 10. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Changed the MessageQueue::getQueueName()
59 method from virtual to non-virtual, and removed that method definition
60 from all the subclasses. To make sure that the MessageQueue class gets
61 the queue name value, the default value for the queue name parameter to
62 the MessageQueue constructor was removed. Constants were defined in
63 Constants.h for all the queue names currently used in Pegasus. The
64 places where those queue names were being used for lookup were also
65 changed to use the constants.
|
66 kumpf 1.104
|
67 kumpf 1.106 11. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTPError exception to
68 report non-200-OK HTTP responses back to client applications. Added
69 an HTTPErrorMessage class to hold information about an HTTP error
70 response. Added support in the CIMOperationResponseDecoder to
71 process HTTP error responses and turn them into HTTPErrorMessages.
72 Added support in CIMClient to process HTTPErrorMessages and throw an
73 HTTP error. This functionality required fundamental changes in the
74 way CIMClient processes messages. It can no longer search its queue
75 for a message of the expected type. Instead, is assumes that no
76 messages should be on its queue unless it has sent a request to the
77 encoder. In that case, it assumes that any message on its queue is
78 the response to that request.
79
|
80 kumpf 1.107 12. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Extended versioning strategy
81 to allow platform-specific version strings.
82
|
83 kumpf 1.108 13. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Renamed shared library for
84 ManagedSystem/OperatingSystem provider so that it would not
85 conflict with library name of generic/OperatingSystem provider.
86
|
87 kumpf 1.109 14. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Added compile flags _REENTRANT and RWSTD_MULTI_THREAD flags for platform_HPUX_PARISC_ACC.
88
|
89 kumpf 1.108
|
90 kumpf 1.110 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Feb 2002 - HP-Nag: Added PAM based user
91 authentication module. The implementation is available only on Unix
92 platforms. The PAM module is optional and it can be built by setting
93 the environment variable PEGASUS_PAM_AUTHENTICATION."
94
|
95 kumpf 1.111 16. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented static methods
96 Uint64 getDifference(CIMDateTime, CIMDateTime), to get the difference
97 between two CIMDateTimes and CIMDateTime getCurrentDateTime(), to return
98 the current date time as CIMDateTime in the CIMDateTime class. Also added
99 method Boolean isInterval(), to check if the CIMDateTime object is an
100 interval.
101
|
102 kumpf 1.112 17. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Improved Consumer interface with
103 indications. Now indications can be displayed using sample
104 DisplayConsumer. To test, create Handler with destination as
105 localhost:5988/logicalname. Create a file consumer_list.dat in your
106 PEGASUS_HOME directory and then ass entry as follows:
107 logicalname = DisplayConsumer
108 This will help ConsumerTable to load the DisplayConsumer to consume
109 the indication passed through ExportServer (CIMExportRequestDispathcer).
110
|
111 kumpf 1.113 18. (Yi Zhou - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented sending message of provider
112 registration notification to subscription service.
113
|
114 kumpf 1.114 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 16 Apr 2002 - Defined an exception hierarchy for
115 CIMClient API users. All exceptions thrown by CIMClient are now
116 subclasses of CIMClientException. The CIMClient methods are defined
117 as throwing CIMClientException, which will allow the actual exceptions
118 thrown to change without changing the method signatures. It also makes
119 it more clear to the client application which exceptions need to be
120 handled.
121
122 A new message type, ClientExceptionMessage has been defined as well.
123 This message is used to communicate client exceptions from the CIM
124 operation response decoder to the CIMClient. Previously, several
125 classes of exceptions were being dropped in the decoder. New
126 CIMClientException subclasses have been defined to model these
127 exceptions. These changes allow decoding exceptions to be passed
128 back to the client application. Examples are unparsable HTTP
129 responses, malformed XML, and mismatched CIM responses (message ID,
130 message type).
131
132 The CIM clients that are linked into the Pegasus build have been
133 updated to catch CIMClientException instead of CIMException.

134 karl 1.115
|
135 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
163
|
164 kumpf 1.121 27. (Susan Campbell - HP) 22 Apr 2002 - Various enhancements and bug fixes
165 to the Managed System OS provider. Rolled in the Linux support from
166 the Linux-specific OS provider and added properties to the HP-UX and
167 Windows OS providers.

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

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

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

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

|
520 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
521
522 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
523 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
524 may temporarily be in side branches.
525 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
526 karl 1.53
527 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
528 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
529 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
530 which is the current file based repository.
531
532 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
533 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
534 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
535 in the future.

536 karl 1.52
|
537 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
538 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
539 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
540 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
541 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
542 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
543
|
544 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
545 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
546 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
547 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
548 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
549 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
550
|
551 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
552 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
553 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
554 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
555 program.
556
|
557 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
558 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
559 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
560 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
561 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
562 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
563 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
564 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
565 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
566
567 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
568 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
569 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
570
571 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
572 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
573 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
574 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
575
576 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
577 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
578 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
579 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
580
581 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
582 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
583
584 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

592 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
593
|
594 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
595 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
596
597 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
598 mike 1.51 =======
599 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
600 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
601
602 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
603 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
604 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
605 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
606 should not affect any current work.
607 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
608 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
609 loads the 2.5 schema.
610
611 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
612 on XML output.
613
614 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
615 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
616 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
617 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
618 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
619 mike 1.51
620 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
621 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
622 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
623 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
624 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
625 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
626 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
627 to show user friendly error/status messages.
628
629 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
630 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
631 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
632 generating debug output.
633
634 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
635 xml when it generates xml output.
636
637 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
638 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
639 repository implementation.
640 mike 1.51
641 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
642
643 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
644
645 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
646
647 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
648
649 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.
650
651 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
652 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
653
654 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
655
656 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.
657
658 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
659
660 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
661 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
662 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
663
664 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
665 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
666 input and output can be written in a trace file.
667
668 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
669 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
670 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
671
672 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
673 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
674 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
675 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
676 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
677 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
678 are modified to implement above messages.
679
680 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
681 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
682 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
683 indication to consumer. This program needs
684 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
685 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
686 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
687 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
688 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
689 below:
690
691 //====================================================================
692 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
693 //====================================================================
694 [Description (
695 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
696 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
697 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
698
699 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
700 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
701 a provider library.
702
703 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
704 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
705 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
706 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
707 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
708 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
709 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
710 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
711 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
712 later).
713
714 Also added are two test programs:
715
716 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
717 CIMParamValue class.
718
719 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
720 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
721 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
722 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
723 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
724 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
725
726 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
727 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
728 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
729 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
730 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
731 and to verify the authentication.
732
733 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
734 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
735 yet linked into the build.
736
737 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
738 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
739 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
740 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
741 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
742 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
743 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
744
745 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
746 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
747 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
748 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
749 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
750 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
751 provider file path name.
752
753 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
754 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
755 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
756 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
757 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
758 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
759 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
760 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
761
762 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
763 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
764 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
765 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
766 mike 1.51
767 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
768 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
769 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
770 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
771
772 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
773 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
774 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
775 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
776 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
777 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
778 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
779 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
780 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
781
782 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
783 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
784
785 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
786
787 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
788 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
789 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
790 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
791 in make files.
792
793 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
794 because getting an error in 26
795
796 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
797 whose types are references. These reference values must be
798 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
799 tag structure.
800
801 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
802 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
803 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
804
805 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
806 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
807 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
808 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
809 of String type and a key of reference type.
810
811 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
812 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
813 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
814 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
815 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
816 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
817 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
818 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
819
820 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
821 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
822 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
823 reference type.
824
825 In this example:
826
827 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
828
829 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
830 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
831 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
832 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
833 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
834
835 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
836 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
837 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
838 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
839 correctly.
840
841 The files that have been modified to make this change are
842 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
843
844 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
845 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
846 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
847 CIMOM version.
848
849 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
850 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
851 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
852 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
853 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
854 definition to determine the key property types.
855
856 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
857 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
858 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
859 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
860
861 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
862 (instanceName).
863
864 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
865 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
866 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
867 relevant intrinsic methods.
868
869 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
870 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
871 mike 1.51
872 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
873 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
874 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
875 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
876 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
877 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
878 nsk platform links.
879
880 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
881 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
882 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
883 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
884 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
885 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
886 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
887
888 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
889 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
890 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
891 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
892 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
893 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
894 in that same form, without special character encoding.
895
896 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
897 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
898 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
899 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
900
901 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
902 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
903 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
904 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
905 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
906
907 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
908 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
909 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
910 be updated to use this class.
911
912 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
913 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
914 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
915 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
916 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
917
918 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
919 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
920 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
921 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
922 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
923 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
924
925 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
926
927 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
928 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
929 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
930 CIMNamedInstance
931 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
932 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
933 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
934 mike 1.51
935 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
936
937 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
938 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
939 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
940 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
941 functionality.
942
943 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
944
945 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
946 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
947 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
948 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
949 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
950 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
951 the entire instance.
952
953 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
954 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
955 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
956
957 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
958 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
959 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
960
961 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
962 ModifyInstance correctly.
963
964 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
965 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
966 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
967 the DMTF specification.
968
969 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
970 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
971 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
972 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
973
974 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
975
976 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
977 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
978 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
979 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
980 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
981 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
982 the entire instance.
983
984 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
985 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
986 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
987 be used to update the instance.
988
989 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
990 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
991 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
992
993 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
994 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
995 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
996
997 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
998 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
999 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1000 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1001 without the standard (std) namespace.
1002
1003 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1004 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1005 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1006
1007 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1008 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
1009 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
1010 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1011 following command before starting cimserver:
1012
1013 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1014
1015 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1016 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1017 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1018 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1019 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
1020 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1021 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1022
1023 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1024 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1025 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1026
1027 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1028 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1029 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1030 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1031 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1032
1033 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1034 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1035 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1036 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1037 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1038 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1039 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1040
1041 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1042 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1043
1044 Authentication and User Management:
1045 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1046 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1047 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1048 generated password file.
1049
1050 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1051 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1052
1053 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1054 management and authorization functionality.
1055
1056 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1057 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1058
1059 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1060 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1061 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1062
1063 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1064 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1065 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1066
1067 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1068 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1069 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1070 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1071 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1072 or change in provider registration.
1073
1074 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1075 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1076 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1077 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1078
1079 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1080 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1081 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1082 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1083 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1084 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1085 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1086 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1087 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1088 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1089 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1090 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1091 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1092 mike 1.50
|
1093 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1094 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1095
1096 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1104 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1105 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1106
1107 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1108 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1109
1110 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1111 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1112
1113 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1114 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1115 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1116 and SimpleThread.
1117
1118 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1119 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1120 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1121 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1122 the test script.
1123
1124 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1125 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1126 and
1127 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1128 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1129 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1130
1131 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1132 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1133 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1134 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1135 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1136 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1137 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1138 information on running the test script.
1139
1140 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1141 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1142 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1143
1144 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1145 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1146 that
1147 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1148 password.
1149 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1150 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1151 build.
1152 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1153 modified to integrate with the framework.

|
1180 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
1181
1182 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1183 ids to queue pointers).
1184
|
1185 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler
1186 and Dispatcher.
1187
|
1188 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher
1189 and

|
1207 karl 1.16
1208 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1209 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1210 mike 1.26
|
1211 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1212 5988.
1213 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1214 the DMTF.
|
1215 mike 1.26
|
1216 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1217 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1218 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1219 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1220 mike 1.26
|
1221 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1222 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1223 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1224 mike 1.26
|
1225 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1226 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1227 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1228 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1229 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1230 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1231 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1232 mike 1.26
|
1233 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1234 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1235 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1236 mike 1.26
|
1237 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1238 mike 1.26
|
1239 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1240 modifyClass,
|
1241 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1242 mike 1.26
|
1243 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1244 directory. These
1245 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1246 CIMProviderStub has
|
1247 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1248 mike 1.26
|
1249 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1250 mike 1.26
|
1251 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1252 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1253 mike 1.26
1254 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1255 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1256
1257 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1258 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1259 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1260 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1261 (MEB)
|
1262 mike 1.26
|
1263 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1264
|
1265 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1266 AssociationName
|
1267 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1268 pages.
1269
|
1270 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1271 sage 1.31
1272 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1273 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1274 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1275 variables.
|
1276 mike 1.32
1277 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1278 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1279 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1280 kumpf 1.34
1281 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1282 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1283 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1284 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1285 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1286 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1287 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1288 karl 1.35
1289 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1290 tests for stack and queue.

1365 karl 1.3 21 May 2001 Version 0.97 - Tagged as version_0_97
|
1366 karl 1.1
1367 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1368 qualifiers, methods.
1369 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1370 methods.
1371 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1372 qualifiers and to
1373 remove qualifiers.
1374 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1375 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1376 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1377 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1378 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1379 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1380 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
