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.
184
|
185 kumpf 1.126 32. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 27 Apr 2002 - Fixed several defects
186 in MOF compiler associated with the handling the initialization
187 of array values.

190 karl 1.93 Version 1.08 working towards 1.1 - Started 27 March 2002
|
191 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because
192 of problems with the CVS repository
|
193 karl 1.93
|
194 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
|
195 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08.
196
|
197 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass,
198 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.

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

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

438 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
439 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
440 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
441 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
442 for that purpose.
443
444 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
445
446 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
447 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
448 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
449 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
450 line number of the CIMException originator.
451
452 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
453
454 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
455 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
456 input and writes the String to the trace file.
457
458 (ex.)
459 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
460 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
461
462 or use the following new macro:
463 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
464

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

538 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
539 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
540
541 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
542 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
543 may temporarily be in side branches.
544 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
545 karl 1.53
546 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
547 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
548 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
549 which is the current file based repository.
550
551 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
552 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
553 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
554 in the future.
|
555 karl 1.52
|
556 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
557 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
558 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
559 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
560 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
561 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
562
|
563 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
564 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
565 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
566 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
567 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
568 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
569
|
570 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
571 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
572 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
573 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
574 program.
575
|
576 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
577 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
578 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
579 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
580 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
581 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
582 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
583 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
584 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
585
586 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
587 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
588 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
589
590 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
591 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
592 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
593 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
594
595 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
596 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
597 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
598 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
599
600 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
601 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
602
603 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

611 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
612
|
613 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
614 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
615
616 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
617 mike 1.51 =======
618 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
619 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
620
621 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
622 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
623 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
624 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
625 should not affect any current work.
626 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
627 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
628 loads the 2.5 schema.
629
630 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
631 on XML output.
632
633 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
634 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
635 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
636 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
637 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
638 mike 1.51
639 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
640 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
641 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
642 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
643 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
644 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
645 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
646 to show user friendly error/status messages.
647
648 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
649 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
650 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
651 generating debug output.
652
653 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
654 xml when it generates xml output.
655
656 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
657 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
658 repository implementation.
659 mike 1.51
660 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
661
662 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
663
664 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
665
666 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
667
668 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.
669
670 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
671 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
672
673 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
674
675 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.
676
677 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
678
679 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
680 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
681 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
682
683 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
684 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
685 input and output can be written in a trace file.
686
687 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
688 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
689 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
690
691 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
692 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
693 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
694 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
695 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
696 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
697 are modified to implement above messages.
698
699 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
700 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
701 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
702 indication to consumer. This program needs
703 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
704 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
705 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
706 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
707 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
708 below:
709
710 //====================================================================
711 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
712 //====================================================================
713 [Description (
714 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
715 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
716 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
717
718 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
719 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
720 a provider library.
721
722 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
723 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
724 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
725 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
726 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
727 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
728 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
729 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
730 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
731 later).
732
733 Also added are two test programs:
734
735 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
736 CIMParamValue class.
737
738 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
739 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
740 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
741 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
742 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
743 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
744
745 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
746 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
747 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
748 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
749 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
750 and to verify the authentication.
751
752 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
753 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
754 yet linked into the build.
755
756 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
757 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
758 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
759 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
760 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
761 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
762 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
763
764 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
765 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
766 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
767 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
768 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
769 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
770 provider file path name.
771
772 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
773 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
774 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
775 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
776 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
777 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
778 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
779 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
780
781 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
782 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
783 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
784 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
785 mike 1.51
786 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
787 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
788 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
789 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
790
791 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
792 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
793 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
794 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
795 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
796 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
797 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
798 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
799 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
800
801 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
802 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
803
804 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
805
806 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
807 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
808 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
809 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
810 in make files.
811
812 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
813 because getting an error in 26
814
815 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
816 whose types are references. These reference values must be
817 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
818 tag structure.
819
820 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
821 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
822 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
823
824 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
825 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
826 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
827 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
828 of String type and a key of reference type.
829
830 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
831 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
832 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
833 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
834 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
835 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
836 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
837 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
838
839 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
840 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
841 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
842 reference type.
843
844 In this example:
845
846 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
847
848 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
849 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
850 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
851 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
852 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
853
854 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
855 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
856 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
857 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
858 correctly.
859
860 The files that have been modified to make this change are
861 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
862
863 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
864 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
865 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
866 CIMOM version.
867
868 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
869 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
870 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
871 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
872 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
873 definition to determine the key property types.
874
875 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
876 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
877 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
878 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
879
880 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
881 (instanceName).
882
883 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
884 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
885 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
886 relevant intrinsic methods.
887
888 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
889 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
890 mike 1.51
891 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
892 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
893 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
894 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
895 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
896 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
897 nsk platform links.
898
899 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
900 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
901 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
902 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
903 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
904 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
905 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
906
907 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
908 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
909 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
910 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
911 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
912 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
913 in that same form, without special character encoding.
914
915 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
916 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
917 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
918 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
919
920 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
921 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
922 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
923 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
924 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
925
926 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
927 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
928 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
929 be updated to use this class.
930
931 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
932 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
933 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
934 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
935 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
936
937 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
938 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
939 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
940 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
941 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
942 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
943
944 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
945
946 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
947 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
948 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
949 CIMNamedInstance
950 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
951 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
952 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
953 mike 1.51
954 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
955
956 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
957 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
958 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
959 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
960 functionality.
961
962 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
963
964 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
965 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
966 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
967 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
968 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
969 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
970 the entire instance.
971
972 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
973 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
974 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
975
976 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
977 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
978 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
979
980 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
981 ModifyInstance correctly.
982
983 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
984 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
985 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
986 the DMTF specification.
987
988 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
989 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
990 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
991 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
992
993 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
994
995 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
996 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
997 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
998 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
999 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1000 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1001 the entire instance.
1002
1003 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
1004 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
1005 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
1006 be used to update the instance.
1007
1008 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1009 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
1010 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1011
1012 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1013 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1014 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1015
1016 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1017 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1018 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1019 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1020 without the standard (std) namespace.
1021
1022 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1023 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1024 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1025
1026 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1027 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
1028 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
1029 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1030 following command before starting cimserver:
1031
1032 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1033
1034 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1035 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1036 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1037 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1038 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
1039 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1040 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1041
1042 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1043 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1044 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1045
1046 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1047 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1048 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1049 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1050 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1051
1052 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1053 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1054 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1055 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1056 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1057 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1058 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1059
1060 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1061 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1062
1063 Authentication and User Management:
1064 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1065 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1066 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1067 generated password file.
1068
1069 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1070 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1071
1072 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1073 management and authorization functionality.
1074
1075 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1076 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1077
1078 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1079 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1080 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1081
1082 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1083 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1084 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1085
1086 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1087 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1088 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1089 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1090 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1091 or change in provider registration.
1092
1093 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1094 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1095 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1096 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1097
1098 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1099 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1100 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1101 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1102 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1103 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1104 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1105 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1106 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1107 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1108 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1109 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1110 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1111 mike 1.50
|
1112 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1113 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1114
1115 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1120 1.1
1121
1122 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1123 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1124 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1125
1126 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1127 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1128
1129 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1130 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1131
1132 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1133 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1134 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1135 and SimpleThread.
1136
1137 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1138 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1139 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1140 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1141 the test script.
1142
1143 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1144 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1145 and
1146 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1147 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1148 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1149
1150 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1151 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1152 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1153 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1154 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1155 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1156 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1157 information on running the test script.
1158
1159 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1160 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1161 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1162
1163 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1164 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1165 that
1166 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1167 password.
1168 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1169 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1170 build.
1171 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1172 modified to integrate with the framework.

1226 karl 1.16
1227 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1228 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1229 mike 1.26
|
1230 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1231 5988.
1232 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1233 the DMTF.
|
1234 mike 1.26
|
1235 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1236 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1237 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1238 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1239 mike 1.26
|
1240 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1241 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1242 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1243 mike 1.26
|
1244 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1245 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1246 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1247 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1248 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1249 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1250 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1251 mike 1.26
|
1252 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1253 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1254 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1255 mike 1.26
|
1256 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1257 mike 1.26
|
1258 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1259 modifyClass,
|
1260 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1261 mike 1.26
|
1262 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1263 directory. These
1264 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1265 CIMProviderStub has
|
1266 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1267 mike 1.26

1268 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1269 mike 1.26
|
1270 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1271 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1272 mike 1.26
1273 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1274 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1275
1276 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1277 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1278 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1279 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1280 (MEB)

1289 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1290 sage 1.31
1291 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1292 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1293 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1294 variables.
|
1295 mike 1.32
1296 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1297 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1298 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1299 kumpf 1.34
1300 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1301 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1302 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1303 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1304 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1305 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1306 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1307 karl 1.35

|
1385 karl 1.1
1386 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1387 qualifiers, methods.
1388 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1389 methods.
1390 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1391 qualifiers and to
1392 remove qualifiers.
1393 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1394 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1395 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1396 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1397 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1398 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1399 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
