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
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.
168
|
169 kumpf 1.122 28. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 24 Apr 2002 - Overhauled the configuration property
170 "unset" functionality. cimconfig now uses modifyInstance with a
171 property list to specify whether the current or planned value (or both)
172 are to be updated. It uses a "null" value to indicate that the value
173 should be unset (reset to default).

178 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because
179 of problems with the CVS repository
|
180 karl 1.93
|
181 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
|
182 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08.
183
|
184 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass,
185 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.

188 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
189 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
190 TAG: VERSION_1_07
191
192 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
193
|
194 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
195 karl 1.59
|
196 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
197 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
198 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
199 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
200 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
201 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
202 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
203
204 For more information look in to the following files:
205 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
206 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
207 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
208 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
209
210 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
211 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
212 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
213 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
214 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
215 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
216 karl 1.63
|
217 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
218 karl 1.62
|
219 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
220 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
221
|
222 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
223 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
224 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
225 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
226 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
227
|
228 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
229 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
230 will be deleted.
231
|
232 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
233
234 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
235 karl 1.66
|
236 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
237 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
238 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
239 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
240 for remote clients.
|
241 karl 1.66
|
242 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
243 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
244 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
245 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
246 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
247 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
248 values.
249
250 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
251
252 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
253 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
254 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
255 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
256 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
257 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
258
259 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
260 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
261 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
262 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
263 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
264 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
265 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
266 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
267 specified in the method definition.
268
269 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
270
271 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
272 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
273 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
274 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
275 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
276 correct type rather than as a String.
277
278 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
279 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
280 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
281 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
282 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
283 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
284 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
285
286 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
287 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
288 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
289
290 SIDE EFFECTS:
291
292 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
293 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
294 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
295 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
296 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
297
298 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
299 clean-up, which I completed.
300
301 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
302
303 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
304 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
305 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
306 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
307 the specified value to that property's type.
308
309 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
310 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
311 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
312 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
313
314 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
315 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
316 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
317 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
318 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
319 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
320
|
321 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
322 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
323 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
324 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
325 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
326 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
327 encoding of parameter values.
328
329 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
330 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
331 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
332 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
333 have defaulted to String type.

334 karl 1.70
335 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
336 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
|
337 karl 1.72
|
338 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
339 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
340 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
341 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
342 the server.
|
343 karl 1.72
344 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
345 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
346
|
347 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
348 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
349 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
350 operations.
351
352 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
353 karl 1.74
354 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
355 definition of CIMFlavors.
|
356 karl 1.76
|
357 kumpf 1.68
|
358 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
359 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
360 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
361 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
362 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
363 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
364 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
365
366 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
367 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
368 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
369 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
370 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
371 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
372 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
373 a single buffer.
374
375 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
376 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
377 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
378 various encoders and decoders, etc.
379 kumpf 1.75
380 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
381 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
382 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
383 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
384
385 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
386 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
387 validated.
|
388 karl 1.76
389 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
390 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
391 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
|
392 karl 1.78
|
393 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
394 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
395
396 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
397 HTTPConnector* connector;
398 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
399 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
400
401 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
402
403 With this change, the client application now looks like:
404
405 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
406
407 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
408
409 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
410 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
411 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
412 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
413 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
414 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
415 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
416 rather than in the constructor.
417
418 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
419 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
420 included in the Pegasus build.
|
421 kumpf 1.79
|
422 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
423 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
424 kumpf 1.75
|
425 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
426 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
427 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
428 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
429 for that purpose.
430
431 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
432
433 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
434 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
435 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
436 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
437 line number of the CIMException originator.
438
439 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
440
441 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
442 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
443 input and writes the String to the trace file.
444
445 (ex.)
446 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
447 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
448
449 or use the following new macro:
450 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");

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

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

|
526 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
527
528 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
529 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
530 may temporarily be in side branches.
531 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
532 karl 1.53
533 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
534 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
535 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
536 which is the current file based repository.
537
538 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
539 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
540 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
541 in the future.

542 karl 1.52
|
543 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
544 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
545 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
546 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
547 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
548 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
549
|
550 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
551 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
552 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
553 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
554 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
555 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
556
|
557 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
558 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
559 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
560 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
561 program.
562
|
563 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
564 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
565 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
566 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
567 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
568 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
569 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
570 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
571 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
572
573 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
574 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
575 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
576
577 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
578 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
579 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
580 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
581
582 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
583 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
584 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
585 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
586
587 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
588 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
589
590 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

|
600 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
601 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
602
603 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
604 mike 1.51 =======
605 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
606 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
607
608 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
609 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
610 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
611 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
612 should not affect any current work.
613 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
614 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
615 loads the 2.5 schema.
616
617 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
618 on XML output.
619
620 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
621 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
622 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
623 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
624 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
625 mike 1.51
626 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
627 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
628 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
629 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
630 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
631 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
632 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
633 to show user friendly error/status messages.
634
635 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
636 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
637 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
638 generating debug output.
639
640 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
641 xml when it generates xml output.
642
643 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
644 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
645 repository implementation.
646 mike 1.51
647 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
648
649 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
650
651 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
652
653 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
654
655 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.
656
657 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
658 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
659
660 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
661
662 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.
663
664 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
665
666 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
667 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
668 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
669
670 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
671 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
672 input and output can be written in a trace file.
673
674 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
675 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
676 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
677
678 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
679 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
680 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
681 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
682 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
683 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
684 are modified to implement above messages.
685
686 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
687 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
688 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
689 indication to consumer. This program needs
690 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
691 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
692 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
693 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
694 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
695 below:
696
697 //====================================================================
698 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
699 //====================================================================
700 [Description (
701 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
702 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
703 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
704
705 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
706 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
707 a provider library.
708
709 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
710 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
711 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
712 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
713 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
714 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
715 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
716 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
717 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
718 later).
719
720 Also added are two test programs:
721
722 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
723 CIMParamValue class.
724
725 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
726 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
727 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
728 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
729 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
730 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
731
732 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
733 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
734 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
735 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
736 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
737 and to verify the authentication.
738
739 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
740 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
741 yet linked into the build.
742
743 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
744 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
745 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
746 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
747 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
748 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
749 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
750
751 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
752 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
753 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
754 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
755 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
756 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
757 provider file path name.
758
759 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
760 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
761 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
762 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
763 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
764 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
765 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
766 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
767
768 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
769 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
770 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
771 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
772 mike 1.51
773 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
774 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
775 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
776 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
777
778 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
779 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
780 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
781 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
782 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
783 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
784 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
785 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
786 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
787
788 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
789 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
790
791 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
792
793 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
794 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
795 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
796 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
797 in make files.
798
799 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
800 because getting an error in 26
801
802 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
803 whose types are references. These reference values must be
804 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
805 tag structure.
806
807 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
808 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
809 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
810
811 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
812 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
813 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
814 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
815 of String type and a key of reference type.
816
817 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
818 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
819 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
820 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
821 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
822 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
823 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
824 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
825
826 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
827 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
828 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
829 reference type.
830
831 In this example:
832
833 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
834
835 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
836 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
837 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
838 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
839 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
840
841 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
842 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
843 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
844 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
845 correctly.
846
847 The files that have been modified to make this change are
848 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
849
850 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
851 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
852 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
853 CIMOM version.
854
855 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
856 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
857 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
858 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
859 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
860 definition to determine the key property types.
861
862 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
863 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
864 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
865 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
866
867 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
868 (instanceName).
869
870 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
871 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
872 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
873 relevant intrinsic methods.
874
875 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
876 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
877 mike 1.51
878 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
879 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
880 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
881 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
882 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
883 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
884 nsk platform links.
885
886 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
887 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
888 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
889 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
890 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
891 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
892 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
893
894 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
895 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
896 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
897 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
898 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
899 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
900 in that same form, without special character encoding.
901
902 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
903 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
904 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
905 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
906
907 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
908 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
909 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
910 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
911 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
912
913 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
914 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
915 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
916 be updated to use this class.
917
918 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
919 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
920 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
921 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
922 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
923
924 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
925 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
926 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
927 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
928 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
929 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
930
931 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
932
933 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
934 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
935 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
936 CIMNamedInstance
937 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
938 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
939 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
940 mike 1.51
941 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
942
943 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
944 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
945 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
946 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
947 functionality.
948
949 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
950
951 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
952 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
953 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
954 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
955 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
956 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
957 the entire instance.
958
959 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
960 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
961 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
962
963 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
964 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
965 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
966
967 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
968 ModifyInstance correctly.
969
970 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
971 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
972 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
973 the DMTF specification.
974
975 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
976 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
977 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
978 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
979
980 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
981
982 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
983 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
984 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
985 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
986 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
987 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
988 the entire instance.
989
990 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
991 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
992 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
993 be used to update the instance.
994
995 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
996 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
997 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
998
999 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1000 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1001 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1002
1003 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1004 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1005 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1006 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1007 without the standard (std) namespace.
1008
1009 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1010 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1011 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1012
1013 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1014 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
1015 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
1016 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1017 following command before starting cimserver:
1018
1019 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1020
1021 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1022 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1023 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1024 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1025 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
1026 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1027 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1028
1029 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1030 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1031 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1032
1033 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1034 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1035 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1036 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1037 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1038
1039 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1040 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1041 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1042 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1043 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1044 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1045 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1046
1047 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1048 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1049
1050 Authentication and User Management:
1051 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1052 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1053 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1054 generated password file.
1055
1056 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1057 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1058
1059 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1060 management and authorization functionality.
1061
1062 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1063 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1064
1065 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1066 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1067 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1068
1069 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1070 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1071 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1072
1073 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1074 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1075 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1076 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1077 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1078 or change in provider registration.
1079
1080 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1081 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1082 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1083 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1084
1085 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1086 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1087 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1088 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1089 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1090 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1091 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1092 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1093 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1094 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1095 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1096 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1097 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1098 mike 1.50
|
1099 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1100 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1101
1102 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1107 1.1
1108
1109 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1110 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1111 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1112
1113 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1114 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1115
1116 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1117 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1118
1119 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1120 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1121 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1122 and SimpleThread.
1123
1124 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1125 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1126 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1127 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1128 the test script.
1129
1130 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1131 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1132 and
1133 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1134 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1135 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1136
1137 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1138 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1139 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1140 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1141 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1142 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1143 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1144 information on running the test script.
1145
1146 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1147 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1148 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1149
1150 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1151 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1152 that
1153 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1154 password.
1155 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1156 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1157 build.
1158 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1159 modified to integrate with the framework.

|
1213 karl 1.16
1214 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1215 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1216 mike 1.26
|
1217 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1218 5988.
1219 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1220 the DMTF.
|
1221 mike 1.26
|
1222 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1223 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1224 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1225 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1226 mike 1.26
|
1227 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1228 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1229 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1230 mike 1.26
|
1231 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1232 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1233 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1234 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1235 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1236 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1237 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1238 mike 1.26
|
1239 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1240 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1241 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1242 mike 1.26
|
1243 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1244 mike 1.26
|
1245 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1246 modifyClass,
|
1247 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1248 mike 1.26
|
1249 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1250 directory. These
1251 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1252 CIMProviderStub has
|
1253 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1254 mike 1.26
|
1255 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1256 mike 1.26
|
1257 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1258 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1259 mike 1.26
1260 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1261 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1262
1263 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1264 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1265 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1266 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1267 (MEB)
|
1268 mike 1.26

1271 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1272 AssociationName
|
1273 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1274 pages.
1275
|
1276 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1277 sage 1.31
1278 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1279 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1280 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1281 variables.
|
1282 mike 1.32
1283 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1284 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1285 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1286 kumpf 1.34
1287 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1288 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1289 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1290 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1291 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1292 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1293 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1294 karl 1.35
1295 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1296 tests for stack and queue.

|
1372 karl 1.1
1373 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1374 qualifiers, methods.
1375 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1376 methods.
1377 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1378 qualifiers and to
1379 remove qualifiers.
1380 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1381 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1382 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1383 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1384 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1385 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1386 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
