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.

|
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).
174
|
175 kumpf 1.123 29. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 24 Apr 2002 - Restructured the configuration
176 property owners to remove redundant code.
177
|
178 kumpf 1.124 30. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 26 Apr 2002 - Reimplement wbemexec to use a
179 new WbemExecClient interface based on HTTPConnection instead of the
180 obsolete Channel code. Also add SSL option to wbemexec.
181
|
182 kumpf 1.125 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Apr 2002 - Added copy constructors to the
183 CIMMessage subclasses.

187 karl 1.93 Version 1.08 working towards 1.1 - Started 27 March 2002
|
188 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because
189 of problems with the CVS repository
|
190 karl 1.93
|
191 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
|
192 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08.
193
|
194 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass,
195 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.

197 karl 1.59
198 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
199 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
200 TAG: VERSION_1_07
201
202 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
203
|
204 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
205 karl 1.59
|
206 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
207 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
208 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
209 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
210 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
211 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
212 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
213
214 For more information look in to the following files:
215 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
216 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
217 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
218 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
219
220 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
221 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
222 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
223 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
224 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
225 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
226 karl 1.63
|
227 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
228 karl 1.62
|
229 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
230 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
231
|
232 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
233 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
234 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
235 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
236 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
237
|
238 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
239 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
240 will be deleted.
241
|
242 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
243
244 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
245 karl 1.66
|
246 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
247 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
248 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
249 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
250 for remote clients.
|
251 karl 1.66
|
252 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
253 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
254 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
255 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
256 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
257 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
258 values.
259
260 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
261
262 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
263 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
264 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
265 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
266 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
267 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
268
269 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
270 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
271 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
272 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
273 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
274 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
275 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
276 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
277 specified in the method definition.
278
279 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
280
281 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
282 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
283 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
284 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
285 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
286 correct type rather than as a String.
287
288 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
289 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
290 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
291 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
292 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
293 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
294 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
295
296 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
297 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
298 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
299
300 SIDE EFFECTS:
301
302 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
303 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
304 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
305 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
306 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
307
308 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
309 clean-up, which I completed.
310
311 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
312
313 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
314 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
315 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
316 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
317 the specified value to that property's type.
318
319 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
320 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
321 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
322 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
323
324 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
325 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
326 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
327 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
328 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
329 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
330
|
331 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
332 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
333 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
334 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
335 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
336 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
337 encoding of parameter values.
338
339 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
340 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
341 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
342 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
343 have defaulted to String type.

344 karl 1.70
345 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
346 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
|
347 karl 1.72
|
348 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
349 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
350 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
351 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
352 the server.
|
353 karl 1.72
354 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
355 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
356
|
357 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
358 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
359 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
360 operations.
361
362 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
363 karl 1.74
364 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
365 definition of CIMFlavors.
|
366 karl 1.76
|
367 kumpf 1.68
|
368 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
369 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
370 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
371 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
372 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
373 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
374 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
375
376 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
377 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
378 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
379 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
380 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
381 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
382 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
383 a single buffer.
384
385 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
386 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
387 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
388 various encoders and decoders, etc.
389 kumpf 1.75
390 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
391 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
392 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
393 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
394
395 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
396 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
397 validated.
|
398 karl 1.76
399 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
400 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
401 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
|
402 karl 1.78
|
403 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
404 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
405
406 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
407 HTTPConnector* connector;
408 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
409 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
410
411 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
412
413 With this change, the client application now looks like:
414
415 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
416
417 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
418
419 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
420 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
421 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
422 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
423 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
424 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
425 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
426 rather than in the constructor.
427
428 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
429 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
430 included in the Pegasus build.
|
431 kumpf 1.79
|
432 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
433 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
434 kumpf 1.75
|
435 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
436 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
437 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
438 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
439 for that purpose.
440
441 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
442
443 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
444 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
445 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
446 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
447 line number of the CIMException originator.
448
449 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
450
451 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
452 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
453 input and writes the String to the trace file.
454
455 (ex.)
456 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
457 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
458
459 or use the following new macro:
460 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");

462 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
463 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
464 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
465 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
466 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
467 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
468 ramnath 1.81
469 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
470 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
471 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
472 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
473 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
474 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
475 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
476 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
477 ramnath 1.80
|
478 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
479 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
480 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
481 in the Windows service work thread.
482
|
483 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
484 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
485 executable
486
487 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
488 executable.
|
489 kumpf 1.84
490 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
491 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
492 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
493 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
494 an integer of the specified size.
495
|
496 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
497 in XmlReader.cpp.
498
|
499 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
500 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
501 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
502 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
503
|
504 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
505 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
506 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
507 karl 1.88
508 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
509 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
510
|
511 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
512 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
513 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
514 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
515 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
516 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
517 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
518 linked into the server.
|
519 karl 1.88
|
520 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
521 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
522 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
523
|
524 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
525 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
526 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
527 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
528 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
529 karl 1.92
530 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
531 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
532 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.

535 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
536 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
537
538 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
539 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
540 may temporarily be in side branches.
541 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
542 karl 1.53
543 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
544 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
545 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
546 which is the current file based repository.
547
548 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
549 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
550 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
551 in the future.
|
552 karl 1.52
|
553 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
554 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
555 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
556 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
557 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
558 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
559
|
560 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
561 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
562 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
563 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
564 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
565 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
566
|
567 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
568 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
569 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
570 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
571 program.
572
|
573 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
574 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
575 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
576 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
577 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
578 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
579 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
580 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
581 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
582
583 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
584 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
585 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
586
587 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
588 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
589 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
590 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
591
592 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
593 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
594 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
595 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
596
597 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
598 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
599
600 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

608 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
609
|
610 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
611 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
612
613 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
614 mike 1.51 =======
615 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
616 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
617
618 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
619 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
620 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
621 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
622 should not affect any current work.
623 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
624 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
625 loads the 2.5 schema.
626
627 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
628 on XML output.
629
630 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
631 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
632 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
633 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
634 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
635 mike 1.51
636 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
637 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
638 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
639 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
640 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
641 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
642 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
643 to show user friendly error/status messages.
644
645 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
646 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
647 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
648 generating debug output.
649
650 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
651 xml when it generates xml output.
652
653 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
654 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
655 repository implementation.
656 mike 1.51
657 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
658
659 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
660
661 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
662
663 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
664
665 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.
666
667 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
668 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
669
670 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
671
672 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.
673
674 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
675
676 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
677 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
678 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
679
680 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
681 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
682 input and output can be written in a trace file.
683
684 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
685 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
686 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
687
688 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
689 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
690 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
691 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
692 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
693 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
694 are modified to implement above messages.
695
696 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
697 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
698 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
699 indication to consumer. This program needs
700 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
701 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
702 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
703 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
704 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
705 below:
706
707 //====================================================================
708 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
709 //====================================================================
710 [Description (
711 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
712 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
713 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
714
715 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
716 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
717 a provider library.
718
719 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
720 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
721 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
722 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
723 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
724 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
725 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
726 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
727 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
728 later).
729
730 Also added are two test programs:
731
732 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
733 CIMParamValue class.
734
735 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
736 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
737 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
738 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
739 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
740 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
741
742 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
743 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
744 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
745 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
746 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
747 and to verify the authentication.
748
749 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
750 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
751 yet linked into the build.
752
753 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
754 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
755 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
756 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
757 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
758 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
759 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
760
761 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
762 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
763 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
764 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
765 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
766 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
767 provider file path name.
768
769 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
770 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
771 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
772 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
773 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
774 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
775 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
776 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
777
778 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
779 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
780 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
781 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
782 mike 1.51
783 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
784 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
785 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
786 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
787
788 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
789 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
790 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
791 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
792 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
793 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
794 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
795 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
796 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
797
798 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
799 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
800
801 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
802
803 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
804 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
805 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
806 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
807 in make files.
808
809 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
810 because getting an error in 26
811
812 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
813 whose types are references. These reference values must be
814 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
815 tag structure.
816
817 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
818 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
819 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
820
821 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
822 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
823 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
824 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
825 of String type and a key of reference type.
826
827 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
828 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
829 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
830 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
831 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
832 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
833 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
834 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
835
836 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
837 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
838 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
839 reference type.
840
841 In this example:
842
843 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
844
845 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
846 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
847 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
848 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
849 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
850
851 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
852 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
853 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
854 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
855 correctly.
856
857 The files that have been modified to make this change are
858 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
859
860 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
861 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
862 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
863 CIMOM version.
864
865 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
866 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
867 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
868 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
869 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
870 definition to determine the key property types.
871
872 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
873 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
874 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
875 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
876
877 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
878 (instanceName).
879
880 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
881 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
882 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
883 relevant intrinsic methods.
884
885 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
886 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
887 mike 1.51
888 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
889 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
890 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
891 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
892 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
893 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
894 nsk platform links.
895
896 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
897 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
898 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
899 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
900 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
901 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
902 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
903
904 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
905 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
906 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
907 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
908 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
909 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
910 in that same form, without special character encoding.
911
912 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
913 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
914 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
915 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
916
917 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
918 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
919 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
920 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
921 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
922
923 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
924 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
925 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
926 be updated to use this class.
927
928 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
929 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
930 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
931 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
932 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
933
934 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
935 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
936 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
937 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
938 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
939 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
940
941 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
942
943 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
944 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
945 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
946 CIMNamedInstance
947 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
948 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
949 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
950 mike 1.51
951 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
952
953 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
954 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
955 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
956 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
957 functionality.
958
959 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
960
961 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
962 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
963 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
964 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
965 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
966 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
967 the entire instance.
968
969 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
970 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
971 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
972
973 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
974 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
975 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
976
977 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
978 ModifyInstance correctly.
979
980 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
981 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
982 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
983 the DMTF specification.
984
985 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
986 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
987 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
988 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
989
990 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
991
992 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
993 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
994 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
995 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
996 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
997 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
998 the entire instance.
999
1000 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
1001 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
1002 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
1003 be used to update the instance.
1004
1005 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1006 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
1007 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1008
1009 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1010 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1011 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1012
1013 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1014 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1015 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1016 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1017 without the standard (std) namespace.
1018
1019 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1020 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1021 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1022
1023 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1024 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
1025 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
1026 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1027 following command before starting cimserver:
1028
1029 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1030
1031 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1032 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1033 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1034 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1035 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
1036 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1037 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1038
1039 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1040 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1041 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1042
1043 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1044 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1045 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1046 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1047 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1048
1049 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1050 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1051 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1052 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1053 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1054 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1055 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1056
1057 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1058 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1059
1060 Authentication and User Management:
1061 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1062 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1063 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1064 generated password file.
1065
1066 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1067 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1068
1069 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1070 management and authorization functionality.
1071
1072 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1073 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1074
1075 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1076 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1077 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1078
1079 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1080 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1081 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1082
1083 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1084 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1085 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1086 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1087 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1088 or change in provider registration.
1089
1090 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1091 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1092 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1093 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1094
1095 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1096 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1097 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1098 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1099 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1100 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1101 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1102 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1103 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1104 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1105 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1106 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1107 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1108 mike 1.50
|
1109 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1110 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1111
1112 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1117 1.1
1118
1119 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1120 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1121 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1122
1123 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1124 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1125
1126 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1127 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1128
1129 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1130 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1131 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1132 and SimpleThread.
1133
1134 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1135 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1136 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1137 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1138 the test script.
1139
1140 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1141 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1142 and
1143 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1144 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1145 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1146
1147 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1148 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1149 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1150 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1151 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1152 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1153 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1154 information on running the test script.
1155
1156 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1157 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1158 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1159
1160 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1161 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1162 that
1163 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1164 password.
1165 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1166 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1167 build.
1168 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1169 modified to integrate with the framework.

1223 karl 1.16
1224 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1225 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1226 mike 1.26
|
1227 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1228 5988.
1229 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1230 the DMTF.
|
1231 mike 1.26
|
1232 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1233 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1234 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1235 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1236 mike 1.26
|
1237 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1238 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1239 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1240 mike 1.26
|
1241 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1242 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1243 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1244 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1245 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1246 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1247 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1248 mike 1.26
|
1249 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1250 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1251 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1252 mike 1.26
|
1253 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1254 mike 1.26
|
1255 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1256 modifyClass,
|
1257 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1258 mike 1.26
|
1259 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1260 directory. These
1261 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1262 CIMProviderStub has
|
1263 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.

1265 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1266 mike 1.26
|
1267 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1268 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1269 mike 1.26
1270 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1271 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1272
1273 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1274 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1275 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1276 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1277 (MEB)

1287 sage 1.31
1288 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1289 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1290 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1291 variables.
|
1292 mike 1.32
1293 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1294 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1295 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1296 kumpf 1.34
1297 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1298 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1299 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1300 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1301 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1302 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1303 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).

1382 karl 1.1
1383 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1384 qualifiers, methods.
1385 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1386 methods.
1387 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1388 qualifiers and to
1389 remove qualifiers.
1390 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1391 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1392 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1393 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1394 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1395 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1396 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
