   1 karl  1.1 CHANGE LOG FOR PEGASUS
   2 karl  1.59 
   3 karl  1.95 Version 1.09 - Started 5 April 2002
   4            TAG: Version_1_09.
   5            
   6            1. 5 April 2002 (KS) Update version to 1.09. TAG, and took snapshot.
   7            
   8 kumpf 1.96 2. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Apr 2002 - Modified the CIMOperationResponseMessage
   9               class and its subclasses to contain a CIMException instead of a
  10               CIMStatusCode and String description.  This allows extra information in
  11               a CIMException, such as file name and line number, to be carried
  12               internally throughout the system.
  13            
  14               This change creates a single place where CIMExceptions are converted
  15               to an error code and description to be written out in XML.  This
  16               single place controls the ability to tune what gets included in the
  17               error description, as well as providing a convenient place to trace
  18               errors that get returned to clients.  In particular, client applications
  19               currently see messages that contain redundant error code information,
  20               such as:
  21            
  22                   CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One or more parameter values passed
  23                   to the method were invalid: "CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One
  24                   or more parameter values passed to the method were invalid:
  25                   "Unrecognized parameter "Bogus"""
  26            
  27               The CIMOperationResponseMessage change will allow the redundant
  28               information to be eliminated from the messages.
  29 karl  1.97    
  30            3. (KS) 7 April 2002- Minor really bad hack to systemwindows.cpp getcurrenttime
  31               after roger fixed timevalue.
  32 kumpf 1.96 
  33 kumpf 1.98 4. (DME) 7 April 2002 Added support for HPUX running on IA64 hardware. 
  34            
  35 kumpf 1.99 5. (DME) 7 April 2002 Update master result file for MOF Compiler CLI tests.
  36 kumpf 1.100                       Update master result file of wbemexec CLI tests.
  37 kumpf 1.99  
  38 ramnath 1.101 6. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 8 Apr 2002 - Modified a libraries.mak file in the 	src/Pegasus/Security/Authentication/tests directory in order to fix the 
  39               	build on Tru64.
  40               
  41 kumpf   1.102 7. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Apr 2002 - The RETURNVALUE and IRETURNVALUE elements
  42                  of the XML encoding of operation responses had been treated as mandatory.
  43                  The client response decoder has been updated to make those elements
  44                  optional for operations that do not require a return value.  The server
  45                  response encoder has been updated not to include those elements when the
  46                  request does not include a return value.
  47               
  48 kumpf   1.103 8. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 9 Apr 2002 - Updated the Instance, Association, and
  49                  Class provider interfaces to use CIMPropertyList instead of Array<String>
  50                  for the propertyList parameters.  All providers that implement a method
  51                  with a propertyList parameter must be modified in accordance with this
  52                  change.  All providers linked into the Pegasus build have been updated.
  53               
  54 kumpf   1.105 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTP error message to be
  55 kumpf   1.104    returned to the CIMClient when an HTTP error response is returned.
  56                  Added a method to parse the status line of an HTTP response.
  57 kumpf   1.105 
  58               10. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Changed the MessageQueue::getQueueName()
  59                   method from virtual to non-virtual, and removed that method definition
  60                   from all the subclasses.  To make sure that the MessageQueue class gets
  61                   the queue name value, the default value for the queue name parameter to
  62                   the MessageQueue constructor was removed.  Constants were defined in
  63                   Constants.h for all the queue names currently used in Pegasus.  The
  64                   places where those queue names were being used for lookup were also
  65                   changed to use the constants.
  66 kumpf   1.104 
  67 kumpf   1.106 11. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTPError exception to
  68                   report non-200-OK HTTP responses back to client applications.  Added
  69                   an HTTPErrorMessage class to hold information about an HTTP error
  70                   response.  Added support in the CIMOperationResponseDecoder to
  71                   process HTTP error responses and turn them into HTTPErrorMessages.
  72                   Added support in CIMClient to process HTTPErrorMessages and throw an
  73                   HTTP error.  This functionality required fundamental changes in the
  74                   way CIMClient processes messages.  It can no longer search its queue
  75                   for a message of the expected type.  Instead, is assumes that no
  76                   messages should be on its queue unless it has sent a request to the
  77                   encoder.  In that case, it assumes that any message on its queue is
  78                   the response to that request.
  79               
  80 kumpf   1.107 12. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Extended versioning strategy
  81                   to allow platform-specific version strings.
  82               
  83 kumpf   1.108 13. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Renamed shared library for
  84                   ManagedSystem/OperatingSystem provider so that it would not
  85                   conflict with library name of generic/OperatingSystem provider. 
  86               
  87 kumpf   1.109 14. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Added compile flags  _REENTRANT and RWSTD_MULTI_THREAD flags for platform_HPUX_PARISC_ACC.
  88               
  89 kumpf   1.108 
  90 kumpf   1.110 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Feb 2002 - HP-Nag: Added PAM based user 
  91                   authentication module. The implementation is available only on Unix 
  92                   platforms. The PAM module is optional and it can be built by setting 
  93                   the environment variable PEGASUS_PAM_AUTHENTICATION." 
  94               
  95 kumpf   1.111 16. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented static methods
  96                  Uint64 getDifference(CIMDateTime, CIMDateTime), to get the difference
  97                  between two CIMDateTimes and CIMDateTime getCurrentDateTime(), to return
  98                  the current date time as CIMDateTime in the CIMDateTime class. Also added
  99                  method Boolean isInterval(), to check if the CIMDateTime object is an
 100                  interval.
 101               
 102 kumpf   1.112 17. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Improved Consumer interface with 
 103                  indications. Now indications can be displayed using sample
 104                  DisplayConsumer. To test, create Handler with destination as
 105                  localhost:5988/logicalname. Create a file consumer_list.dat in your
 106                  PEGASUS_HOME directory and then ass entry as follows:
 107                  logicalname = DisplayConsumer
 108                  This will help ConsumerTable to load the DisplayConsumer to consume
 109                  the indication passed through ExportServer (CIMExportRequestDispathcer).
 110               
 111 kumpf   1.113 18. (Yi Zhou - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented sending message of provider
 112                  registration notification to subscription service.
 113               
 114 kumpf   1.114 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 16 Apr 2002 - Defined an exception hierarchy for
 115                   CIMClient API users.  All exceptions thrown by CIMClient are now
 116                   subclasses of CIMClientException.  The CIMClient methods are defined
 117                   as throwing CIMClientException, which will allow the actual exceptions
 118                   thrown to change without changing the method signatures.  It also makes
 119                   it more clear to the client application which exceptions need to be
 120                   handled.
 121               
 122                   A new message type, ClientExceptionMessage has been defined as well.
 123                   This message is used to communicate client exceptions from the CIM
 124                   operation response decoder to the CIMClient.  Previously, several
 125                   classes of exceptions were being dropped in the decoder.  New
 126                   CIMClientException subclasses have been defined to model these
 127                   exceptions.  These changes allow decoding exceptions to be passed
 128                   back to the client application.  Examples are unparsable HTTP
 129                   responses, malformed XML, and mismatched CIM responses (message ID,
 130                   message type).
 131               
 132                   The CIM clients that are linked into the Pegasus build have been
 133                   updated to catch CIMClientException instead of CIMException.
 134 karl    1.115     
 135 kumpf   1.118 20. (KS) 18 Apr 2002 -Incorporated tomof client into the build.  Includes
 136 karl    1.115     usage and help.
 137                   This program outputs mof or xml from repository either as a client
 138                   or direct to the repository.
 139                
 140 kumpf   1.118 21. (KS) 18 Apr 2002 - Changed all FIXME, etc. in compiler to ATTN with
 141 karl    1.115     priorities.
 142 kumpf   1.114 
 143 kumpf   1.118 22. (MM) 18 Apr 2002 - Associator provider handling
 144 sage    1.116 
 145 kumpf   1.118 23. (MM) 18 Apr 2002 - HiRes pegasus_gettimeofday() for Windows needed
 146 sage    1.117     for performance statistics.
 147 kumpf   1.118 
 148               24. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Apr 2002 - Removed the "match" code in the
 149                   String class which had a dependency on the TCL license.  Where this
 150                   code was being used to match HTTP headers, I replaced the call to
 151                   String::matchNoCase() with specific logic to check for the namespace
 152                   in an HTTP extension header.  For example, if the allowNamespacePrefix
 153                   argument is true and the search tag is "Tag", HTTPMessage::lookupHeader
 154                   will match "Tag" and "45-Tag", but not "abcTag".  This behavior more
 155                   closely models the intent of the String match in this case and is
 156                   therefore more correct.
 157 sage    1.117 
 158 kumpf   1.119 25. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 20 Apr 2002 - Added an instance of 
 159                   PegasusVersion.h to each product component. This was done
 160                   to support component level version tracking.
 161               
 162 sage    1.120 26. (MM) 22 Apr 2002 - Performance Measurement Implementation
 163               
 164 kumpf   1.121 27. (Susan Campbell - HP) 22 Apr 2002 - Various enhancements and bug fixes
 165                  to the Managed System OS provider.  Rolled in the Linux support from
 166                  the Linux-specific OS provider and added properties to the HP-UX and
 167                  Windows OS providers.
 168               
 169 kumpf   1.122 28. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 24 Apr 2002 - Overhauled the configuration property
 170                   "unset" functionality.  cimconfig now uses modifyInstance with a
 171                   property list to specify whether the current or planned value (or both)
 172                   are to be updated.  It uses a "null" value to indicate that the value
 173                   should be unset (reset to default).
 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.
 188 karl    1.127     
 189               33. (KS) 30 April 2002 - Added Namespace Control Provider. Note that it is 
 190                   not completely tested today and only enumeratenames is guaranteed.
 191                   
 192 kumpf   1.128 34. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 6 May 2002 - Reworked the String class.  Fixed the
 193                   places where StrLen() was reading off the end of arrays.  Removed the
 194                   Cat() functions.  Moved Open(), OpenAppend(), and GetLine() functions
 195                   to the FileSystem module.  Removed the EmptyStringArray() method.
 196                   Moved method implementations from header file to source file.  Marked
 197                   the _CString class for internal use only.
 198               
 199 kumpf   1.129 35. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 9 May 2002 - Updated the Logger to log to 
 200                   syslog on the HP-UX platform.
 201               
 202               36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 9 May 2002 - Fixed the method 
 203                   CIMDateTime::getCurrentDateTime() to return local time instead of UTC.
 204                   Updated the CIMDateTime::getDifference() method to compute the difference
 205                   between two local times. Also updated the getDifference to compute the 
 206                   difference between two intervals.
 207               
 208 mary    1.130 37. (Mary Hinton) 10 May 2002 - Fixed the problem in the new version of 
 209                   pegasus_gettimeofday(struct timeval *tv)function for the Windows 
 210                   platform. The new implementation was implemented for higher resolution 
 211                   for performance statistics. However, it was causing an intermittent 
 212                   hang in the ThreadPool test on the Windows platform.When (long int) 
 213                   is changed to (__int64), the tv_usec variable of timeval struct has 
 214                   the correct value.

 236 karl    1.59  
 237 kumpf   1.67  3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
 238                   class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
 239                   location, Provider location and Consumer location.
 240                   The default location for these properties continue to be the same
 241                   as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
 242                   Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
 243                   return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.

 251               4. KS -  18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
 252 karl    1.62     This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
 253                  reset when a value is "set" or copied into them.  the XML and MOF
 254                  also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
 255                  There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
 256                  the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
 257 karl    1.63     
 258 kumpf   1.67  5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
 259 karl    1.62  
 260 kumpf   1.67  6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
 261 karl    1.64     Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
 262               
 263 kumpf   1.67  7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to 
 264 kumpf   1.65  loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal() 
 265               method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system 
 266               configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use 
 267               modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
 268               
 269 kumpf   1.67  8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
 270 karl    1.66  schema directory.  The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
 271               will be deleted.
 272               
 273 kumpf   1.67  9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
 274               
 275               10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
 276 karl    1.66  
 277 kumpf   1.67  11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
 278                   checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
 279                   Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
 280                   This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
 281                   for remote clients.
 282 karl    1.66  
 283 kumpf   1.68  12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
 284                   method (InvokeMethod) operations.  This change involves the addition
 285                   of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags.  This tag
 286                   allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
 287                   having to look up the method definition in the schema.  It also allows
 288                   the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
 289                   values.
 290               
 291                   PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
 292               
 293                   Method providers ARE affected by this change.  Previously, all input
 294                   parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
 295                   regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
 296                   was defined.  With this change, providers will now receive input
 297                   parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
 298                   application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
 299               
 300                   However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
 301                   API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute.  In this case, the operation
 302                   processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
 303                   and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
 304 kumpf   1.68      The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
 305                   XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
 306                   will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
 307                   specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
 308                   specified in the method definition.
 309               
 310                   CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
 311               
 312                   Clients ARE affected by this change.  Any output parameters that are
 313                   returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
 314                   attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
 315                   sent by the server.  Previously, they would have always been of
 316                   String type.  In addition, the return value will be received as the
 317                   correct type rather than as a String.
 318               
 319                   Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
 320                   PARAMTYPE attribute.  In this case, the client will see a
 321                   CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
 322                   String.  Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
 323                   PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type.  These return
 324                   values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
 325 kumpf   1.68      because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
 326               
 327                   This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
 328                   Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
 329                   implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
 330               
 331                   SIDE EFFECTS:
 332               
 333                   In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
 334                   that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
 335                   CIMReferences.  This appeared to be an oversight, since method
 336                   parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences.  I've
 337                   added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
 338               
 339                   I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
 340                   clean-up, which I completed.
 341               
 342                   SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
 343               
 344                   A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
 345                   "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
 346 kumpf   1.68      (currently dispatcher).  This is achieved by looking up the
 347                   relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
 348                   the specified value to that property's type.
 349               
 350                   The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
 351                   inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
 352                   extra processing.  However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
 353                   ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
 354               
 355                   The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
 356                   information.  Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
 357                   always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
 358                   against any server (Pegasus or not).  Clients that require properties
 359                   to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
 360                   a property list) rather than GetProperty.
 361               
 362 kumpf   1.69  13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
 363                   Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
 364                   class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
 365                   This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
 366                   and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
 367                   The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
 368                   encoding of parameter values.
 369               
 370                   An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
 371                   behavior outlined in item 12 above.  Clients should use the isTyped()
 372                   method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
 373                   InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
 374                   have defaulted to String type.
 375 karl    1.70      
 376               14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
 377                   Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
 378 karl    1.72    
 379 kumpf   1.71  15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept 
 380                   username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new 
 381                   method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server 
 382                   and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from 
 383                   the server.
 384 karl    1.72      
 385               16  (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
 386                   all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
 387                  
 388 kumpf   1.73  17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager 
 389                   to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and 
 390                   indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
 391                   operations.
 392               
 393                   Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
 394 karl    1.74      
 395               18  (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
 396                   definition of CIMFlavors.
 397 karl    1.76      
 398 kumpf   1.68  
 399 kumpf   1.75  19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
 400                   eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
 401                   nested method call structure.  Now, instead of having a method at
 402                   each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
 403                   are separate methods to add the begin and end tags.  At the top
 404                   level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
 405                   "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
 406               
 407                   The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
 408                   payload and then again when the HTTP header is added.  (Since the
 409                   HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
 410                   constructed until the payload is complete.)  It is possible to
 411                   remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
 412                   changes elsewhere in the code.  For example, the HTTPMessage class
 413                   would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
 414                   a single buffer.
 415               
 416                   Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup.  Much of the XML
 417                   formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter.  Also,
 418                   error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
 419                   various encoders and decoders, etc.
 420 kumpf   1.75  
 421               20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
 422                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
 423                   that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
 424                   with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
 425               
 426                   Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
 427                   CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
 428                   validated.
 429 karl    1.76  
 430               21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
 431                   qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
 432                   Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
 433 karl    1.78      
 434 kumpf   1.77  22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
 435                   Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
 436               
 437                       Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
 438                       HTTPConnector* connector;
 439                       connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
 440                       Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000;    // optional
 441               
 442                       CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
 443               
 444                   With this change, the client application now looks like:
 445               
 446                       Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000;    // optional
 447               
 448                       CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
 449               
 450                   The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
 451                   constructor.  It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
 452                   connection rather than of the client API.  So instead of adding an SSL
 453                   context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
 454                   connect() method.  There are now forms of the connect() method with and
 455 kumpf   1.77      without an SSL context.  Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
 456                   class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
 457                   rather than in the constructor.
 458               
 459                   NOTE:  Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
 460                   change.  I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
 461                   included in the Pegasus build.

 463 karl    1.78  23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
 464                   of fixed length arrays to be lost.
 465 kumpf   1.75  
 466 kumpf   1.79  24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
 467                   include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
 468                   However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the 
 469                   CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
 470                   for that purpose.   
 471               
 472                   A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
 473               
 474                   - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
 475                     A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
 476                     as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
 477                     trace file.  This message will include the source filename and the
 478                     line number of the CIMException originator.
 479               
 480                     Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
 481               
 482                   - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
 483                     A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
 484                     input and writes the String to the trace file.
 485               
 486                     (ex.)
 487 kumpf   1.79        You can issue the following method call:
 488                        Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
 489               
 490                     or use the following new macro:
 491                        PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");

 494 ramnath 1.80  	several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix.  Added
 495               	one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in 
 496               	the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
 497               	This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first 
 498               	operator to be "OR"ed.
 499 ramnath 1.81  
 500               26.  (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that 
 501               	Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
 502               	of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and 
 503               	PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file 
 504               	streams.  Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
 505               	fstream object.  Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef 
 506               	block detecting a build on Tru64 was used.  Added cstdarg and ctime in
 507               	pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
 508 ramnath 1.80  
 509 mary    1.82  27.  (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
 510               	again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could 
 511               	not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly 
 512               	in the Windows service work thread.
 513               
 514 karl    1.83  28.  (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
 515                       local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof) 
 516               	executable
 517                      
 518               29.  (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
 519                       executable. 
 520 kumpf   1.84  
 521               30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
 522                   Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp.  Previously, values that were out of
 523                   range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size.  An
 524                   exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
 525                   an integer of the specified size.
 526               
 527 kumpf   1.85  31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
 528                   in XmlReader.cpp.
 529               
 530 kumpf   1.86  32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic 
 531                   Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication 
 532                   releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified 
 533                   the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
 534               
 535 karl    1.88  33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
 536                   with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
 537 ramnath 1.87  	InstanceDataFile.cpp
 538 karl    1.88  	
 539               34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
 540                   enabled the scope and flavors testing.  Had been pretty much blocked before.
 541                   
 542 kumpf   1.89  35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
 543                   request messages to provider API calls.  Cleaned up the dispatcher and
 544                   added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
 545                   ModuleController.  Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
 546                   ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
 547                   providers working.  Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
 548                   Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
 549                   linked into the server.
 550 karl    1.88  
 551 kumpf   1.90  36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
 552                   the ModuleController as a control provider.  Moved the UserAuthProvider
 553                   from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
 554               
 555 kumpf   1.91  37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
 556                   ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
 557                   provider.  Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
 558                   ControlProviders directory.  Obsoleted and removed the
 559                   Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
 560 karl    1.92      
 561               38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
 562                   extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
 563                   use.  This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.
 564                   
 565 kumpf   1.91  
 566 karl    1.59  -------------------------------------------------------------------
 567 karl    1.52  Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
 568               
 569               1. Merged back to Main branch.  All general development will be in main branch 
 570                      in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
 571                      may temporarily be in side branches.
 572                      Changed cimversion to 1.06.  We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
 573 karl    1.53         
 574               2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository 
 575               	implementations will be kept to separate them from the 
 576               	repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
 577               	which is the current file based repository.
 578               	
 579               	Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
 580               	to remove an existing repository.  It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
 581               	command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
 582               	in the future.
 583 karl    1.52  
 584 kumpf   1.54  3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
 585                  to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
 586                  present.  If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
 587                  exception is thrown.  Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
 588                  intrinsic methods.  If a parameter is specified more than once, a
 589                  CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
 590               
 591 kumpf   1.57  4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
 592 kumpf   1.55     and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
 593                  queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
 594                  CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
 595                  Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
 596                  it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
 597               
 598 kumpf   1.57  5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it 
 599 mary    1.56     runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running 
 600                  forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver 
 601                  service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient 
 602                  program.
 603               
 604 kumpf   1.58  6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription, 
 605                   CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
 606                   in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
 607                   CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 608                   CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 609                   CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 610                   CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 611                   CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 612                   CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 613               
 614                   This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
 615                   CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from 
 616                   IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear. 
 617               
 618                   IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
 619                   when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
 620                   CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 621                   CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 622               
 623                   I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
 624                   and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
 625 kumpf   1.58      old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a 
 626                   plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
 627               
 628                   There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create 
 629                   Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
 630               
 631                   Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

 639               Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
 640               
 641 mike    1.50  1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
 642                  PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
 643               
 644               2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
 645 mike    1.51  =======
 646               1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
 647               	seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
 648               	
 649               2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
 650               	to the final version in Schemas\CIM25.  This included minor
 651               	corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
 652               	official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF.  This change
 653               	should not affect any current work.
 654               3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
 655               	directorys.  Note however that today the make repository still
 656               	loads the 2.5 schema.
 657               	
 658               4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
 659                       on XML output.
 660                       
 661               5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
 662               in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
 663               RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp).  aCC scopes variable
 664               declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
 665               "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
 666 mike    1.51  
 667               6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove 
 668               dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the 
 669               cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files 
 670               and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that 
 671               were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config 
 672               provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified 
 673               provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI 
 674               to show user friendly error/status messages.
 675                       
 676               7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI 
 677               (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).  
 678               Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in 
 679               generating debug output.
 680               
 681               8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
 682               xml when it generates xml output.
 683               
 684               9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
 685               a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
 686               repository implementation.
 687 mike    1.51  
 688               10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
 689               
 690               11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
 691               
 692               12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
 693               
 694               13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
 695               
 696               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.
 697               
 698               15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
 699                   CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
 700               
 701               16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
 702               
 703               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.
 704               
 705               18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
 706               
 707               19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
 708 mike    1.51      interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
 709                   a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
 710               
 711               20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
 712                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML 
 713                   input and output can be written in a trace file.
 714               
 715               21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
 716                   Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
 717                   deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
 718               
 719               22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
 720                   ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
 721                   consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
 722                   indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
 723                   implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
 724                   RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
 725                   are modified to implement above messages. 
 726               
 727                   XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
 728                   operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
 729 mike    1.51      instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
 730                   indication to consumer. This program needs
 731                   src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof 
 732                   and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
 733                   in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
 734                   program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
 735                   modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
 736                   below:

 745               
 746               23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
 747                   ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
 748                   a provider library.
 749               
 750 mike    1.51  24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
 751                   interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
 752                   type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
 753                   information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
 754                   to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
 755                   parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
 756                   call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
 757                   travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
 758                   CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
 759                   later). 
 760               
 761                   Also added are two test programs: 
 762               	
 763                   src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
 764                       CIMParamValue class.
 765               	
 766                   src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
 767                       InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
 768                       implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
 769                       and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
 770                       CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
 771 mike    1.51          which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
 772               
 773               25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
 774                   authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
 775                   and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
 776                   module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
 777                   interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
 778                   and to verify the authentication.
 779               
 780                   A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
 781                   This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
 782                   yet linked into the build.
 783               
 784               26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
 785                   Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
 786                   before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
 787                   request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
 788                   New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
 789                   appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
 790                   _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
 791               
 792 mike    1.51  27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
 793                   fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
 794                   providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
 795                   construction (appending .sl or .so) from
 796                   CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
 797                   ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
 798                   provider file path name.
 799               
 800               28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
 801                   Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
 802                   definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
 803                   structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
 804                   Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
 805                   agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
 806                   Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
 807                   implement specific trap delivery mechanism. 
 808               
 809               29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
 810                   be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
 811                   property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
 812                   plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
 813 mike    1.51  
 814               30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer 
 815                   to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
 816                   string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface. 
 817                   Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
 818               
 819               31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
 820                   NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
 821                   were added:  platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
 822                   library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak, 
 823                   program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
 824                   all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
 825                   only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
 826                   library.mak were changed to include the NSK files. 
 827                   File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
 828               
 829               32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
 830                   commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
 831                   
 832               33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
 833               
 834 mike    1.51  34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
 835                   pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
 836                   the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
 837                   leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
 838                   in make files.
 839                  
 840               35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25 
 841                   because getting an error in 26
 842               
 843               35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
 844                   whose types are references.  These reference values must be
 845                   treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
 846                   tag structure.
 847               
 848                   Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
 849                   For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
 850                   type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
 851               
 852                   I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
 853                   CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
 854                   XML in the proper format.  However, making that change required
 855 mike    1.51      that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
 856                   of String type and a key of reference type.
 857               
 858                   I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
 859                   allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
 860                   reference type.  The "official" form uses the same encoding for
 861                   key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
 862                   would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
 863                   the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
 864                   key values.  This is clearly too inefficient for internal
 865                   transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
 866               
 867                   The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
 868                   for a key of reference type (before the opening '"').  This allows
 869                   the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
 870                   reference type.
 871               
 872                   In this example:
 873               
 874                       MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
 875               
 876 mike    1.51      Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
 877                   the usual encoding.  Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
 878                   is inserted before its encoded value.  Note that this algorithm is
 879                   recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
 880                   which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
 881               
 882                   The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry.  A new
 883                   KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
 884                   CIMReference that are of reference type.  This KeyBinding type must
 885                   be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
 886                   correctly.
 887               
 888                   The files that have been modified to make this change are
 889                   CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
 890               
 891                   A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
 892                   repository will include this extra 'R' character.  Thus, you will
 893                   need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
 894                   CIMOM version.
 895               
 896                   Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
 897 mike    1.51      names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
 898                   instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
 899                   therefore unacceptable.  It is likely that these points will need
 900                   to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
 901                   definition to determine the key property types.
 902               
 903               36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components 
 904                   in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
 905                   init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with 
 906                   cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
 907               
 908               37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference 
 909                   (instanceName).
 910               
 911               38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
 912                   GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
 913                   Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
 914                   relevant intrinsic methods.
 915               
 916               39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
 917                   ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
 918 mike    1.51  
 919               40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
 920                   files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
 921                   TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
 922                   IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
 923                   SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
 924                   (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
 925                   nsk platform links. 
 926               
 927               41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
 928                   toString() method for CIMValues of String type.  The old behavior
 929                   returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
 930                   replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents.  For example, a CIMValue of a"b
 931                   would be returned as a&quot;b.  The new behavior just returns the
 932                   String value directly with no translation.  (Note that
 933                   CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
 934               
 935                   This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
 936                   repository.  CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
 937                   CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
 938                   CIMValue.toString().  GetInstance searches for the instance name
 939 mike    1.51      without UTF-8 encoding of special characters.  For GetInstance to
 940                   be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
 941                   in that same form, without special character encoding.
 942               
 943               42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
 944                   the CIMValue class.  Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
 945                   often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
 946                   Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
 947               
 948               43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function 
 949                   localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class 
 950                   to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the 
 951                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>. 
 952                   Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
 953               
 954               44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
 955                   to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
 956                   from EnumerateInstances.  The client and provider APIs need to
 957                   be updated to use this class.
 958               
 959               45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line 
 960 mike    1.51      source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing 
 961                   of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider 
 962                   functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function 
 963                   String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
 964               
 965               46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
 966                   the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
 967                   the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
 968                   Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
 969                   responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
 970                   supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
 971               
 972               47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
 973               
 974                     - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
 975                         to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
 976                     - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
 977                         CIMNamedInstance
 978                     - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
 979                     - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
 980                         CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
 981 mike    1.51  
 982                   Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
 983               
 984                   These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
 985                   API.  For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
 986                   differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
 987                   However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
 988                   functionality.
 989               
 990                   When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
 991               
 992                     - 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 be required to return instance names along with
1001                         instances in the EnumerateInstances method.  Clients will receive
1002 mike    1.51            these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1003               
1004                     - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
1005                         PropertyList instead of an Array<String>.  This change allows
1006                         providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
1007               
1008                   Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
1009                   ModifyInstance correctly.
1010               
1011               48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
1012                   provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
1013                   ModifyInstance operations.  These changes were made to comply with
1014                   the DMTF specification.
1015               
1016                   The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
1017                   plans to do so.  Providers written to the original API will
1018                   continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
1019                   to take advantage of the features that have been added.
1020               
1021                   The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
1022               
1023 mike    1.51        - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1024                         they are required to respect.  Providers that can not process the
1025                         PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1026                         list is not null.  Clients can take advantage of this change by
1027                         issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1028                         properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1029                         the entire instance.
1030               
1031                     - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
1032                         which they are required to respect.  If IncludeQualifiers is
1033                         false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
1034                         be used to update the instance.
1035               
1036                     - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1037                         instances in the EnumerateInstances method.  Clients will receive
1038                         these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1039               
1040                   The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1041                   However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1042                   a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1043               
1044 mike    1.51  49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1045                   files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1046                   the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1047                   platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1048                   without the standard (std) namespace.
1049               
1050               50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1051                   properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1052                   repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1053               
1054                   Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1055                   default provider for instance (and association) operations.  The default
1056                   setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed.  To
1057                   disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1058                   following command before starting cimserver:
1059               
1060                       cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1061               
1062                   The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1063                   provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1064                   provider.  This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1065 mike    1.51      instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1066                   to "false".  The default value is "repository".  To register the
1067                   repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1068                   'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1069               
1070               51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1071                   pass to providers that act as services.  This handle provides
1072                   service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1073               
1074               52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1075                   the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1076                   PropertyList parameters.  Updated SetProperty in the repository
1077                   so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly.  The repository now
1078                   supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1079               
1080                   Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1081                   Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1082                   ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider.  Providers
1083                   written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1084                   ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1085                   operations.  Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1086 mike    1.51      work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1087               
1088               53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1089                   Security components for authentication and authorization. 
1090               
1091                   Authentication and User Management:
1092                   cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1093                   and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1094                   in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd 
1095                   generated password file. 
1096               
1097                   cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1098                   to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1099                   
1100                   User Manager and  User Manager Provider  components implement the user 
1101                   management and authorization functionality.   
1102               
1103               54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1104                   under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1105               
1106               55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1107 mike    1.51      which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1108                   It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1109               
1110               56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1111                   and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1112                   NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1113                 
1114               57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1115                   subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the 
1116                   CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler 
1117                   classes (from CIM_Events27.mof).  The service also takes appropriate action
1118                   in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider, 
1119                   or change in provider registration.  
1120               
1121               58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1122                   and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1123                   For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper 
1124                   in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1125               
1126               59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1127                   It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1128 mike    1.51      in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1129                   constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1130                   structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1131                   MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1132                   between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1133                   is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1134                   How to use it in a Server or Client:
1135                   1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1136                   2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1137                      SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1138                      without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
1139 mike    1.50  
1140 mike    1.51      The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1141                   cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1142               
1143               60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1151                  indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1152                  and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1153               
1154                  Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1155                  make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1156               
1157                  Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1158                  SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1159               
1160               2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1161                  library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1162                  are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1163                  and SimpleThread.

1187 mike    1.51  6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1188                  (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1189                  functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1190               
1191               7. (Bapu Patil - HP)  Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1192                  Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1193                  that
1194                  connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1195                  password.
1196                  Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.

1253 karl    1.35  Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
1254 karl    1.16  
1255               1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day.  This includes code bothe
1256               for NT and Linux platforms.
1257 mike    1.26  
1258 karl    1.17  2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1259               5988.
1260               NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1261               the DMTF.
1262 mike    1.26  
1263 karl    1.17  3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1264               Fusion event.  THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1265               CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF.  Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1266               Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
1267 mike    1.26  
1268 bob     1.18  4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1269               and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}.  This is the first step in
1270               revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
1271 mike    1.26  
1272 bob     1.19  5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1273               Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1274               Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1275               files instead of generating your own for a particular platform.  This should
1276               prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1277               code.  The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
1278 bob     1.20  (grb)
1279 mike    1.26  
1280 bob     1.20  6.  Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1281               This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1282               to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
1283 mike    1.26  
1284 karl    1.21  7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
1285 mike    1.26  
1286 karl    1.25  8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1287               modifyClass,
1288 chip    1.22  createClass to protect caller's object.
1289 mike    1.26  
1290 karl    1.25  9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1291               directory. These
1292               interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1293               CIMProviderStub has
1294 chip    1.23  been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
1295 mike    1.26  
1296 sage    1.24  10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
1297 mike    1.26  
1298 karl    1.25  11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository.  To rebuild
1299               repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
1300 mike    1.26  
1301               12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
1302 mike    1.27      (MEB)
1303               
1304               13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1305                   Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1306                   Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1307                   Need to handle deleteInstance().
1308                   (MEB)
1309 mike    1.26  
1310 mday    1.28  14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1311               
1312 karl    1.30  15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1313               AssociationName
1314 karl    1.29  and ReferenceName functions.  This included extensive update to the HTML
1315               pages.
1316               
1317 karl    1.30  16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
1318 sage    1.31  
1319               17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1320               ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1321               Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1322               variables.
1323 mike    1.32  
1324               18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1325                   References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1326                   on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
1327 kumpf   1.34  
1328               19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1329                   changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1330                   buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1331                   change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1332                   lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1333                   and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1334                   these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
1335 karl    1.35  
1336               20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1337                   tests for stack and queue.

1348 karl    1.12  	b. Add option so that you can trace to console or trace to logfile (-l
1349               	is
1350 karl    1.11  	   trace to log, -t is trace to console).
1351               	c. add parameter in optionsrow for help message and enable the capture
1352 karl    1.12  	   of these messages in Options class.  Also added help print that
1353               	   prints these things out.  However, format not to beautiful.
1354 karl    1.11  	d. Eliminate a couple of messages coming from __Namespace provider.
1355               	e. Extend the Clients\testclient so he does tests on Namespace.
1356 karl    1.15  2. (KS)Extended Log to show time, severity.
1357 mike    1.33  
1358 karl    1.15  3. (KS)Added getCurrentASCIITime functions to System.x

1371               not
1372 karl    1.14  print out all of the message.  At the least it prints out the error message
1373               and components of the message causing the problem.
1374 mike    1.33  
1375 karl    1.15  8. (KS)Added clean option to server but temprarily disabled.

1401 karl    1.5   
1402 karl    1.3   1. Add PEG_NOT_FOUND symbol to replace Uint32(-1) in any of the object
1403               find functions.  Note: This symbol is defined in config.h. (ks).
1404               
1405 karl    1.5   2. Port To HP UX.  This required a number of changes particularly in the area
1406               of dynamic lib loaading.

1413 karl    1.1   
1414               1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1415               qualifiers, methods.
1416               2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1417               methods.
1418               3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1419               qualifiers and to
1420               remove qualifiers.
1421               4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1422               compiler.  It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
1423 karl    1.2   the current compiler.  This version of the port produces an excessively large
1424               common module due to template bloat.  That problem will be fixed in a future
1425               change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1426               by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems.  The port has been tested
1427               with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
