   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.
 215               
 216 kumpf   1.131 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 13 May 2002 - To eliminate the possibility of
 217                   collisions (and subsequent corruption) when different threads
 218                   concurrently update the ArrayRep reference count, I added a Mutex
 219                   to the ArrayRep structure.  This Mutex gets locked in the inc()
 220                   and dec() methods that manage the reference count.
 221               
 222                   After adding the Mutex, the "mysterious" memory problems seemed to clear
 223                   up.  This seems like a very good thing.  However, note that the addition
 224                   of the Mutex adversely affects performance (nearly 2:1).  I tried using
 225                   an AtomicInt for the reference count, but that seemed to yield even worse
 226                   performance on my system.
 227               
 228                   Anyone should feel free to optimize the performance of the locking in
 229                   the ArrayRep structure.  Since I believe this locking is required for
 230                   proper operation, I've added the Mutex for all platforms.  Note that I
 231                   had to comment out the assert statements in internal_dq.h to avoid a
 232                   circular header file dependency (Array.h->IPC.h->internal_dq.h->
 233                   Exception.h->String.h->Array.h).
 234               
 235 kumpf   1.132 39. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 13 May 2002 - Removed operator int() methods from
 236                   all CIM* classes.  These methods had been causing a number of difficult
 237                   to find defects, including the use of the wrong versions of the methods
 238                   in Memory.h by the Array template (leading to major memory leaks).
 239               
 240                   In general, it is dangerous to define a casting operator method that
 241                   loses so much information, because the compiler will apply the cast
 242                   at will in an effort to match types.  I've replaced all instances of
 243                   the int cast operator with isNull() methods.

 261               
 262               1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07  and tagged file.
 263               
 264 sage    1.60  2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
 265 karl    1.59  
 266 kumpf   1.67  3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
 267                   class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
 268                   location, Provider location and Consumer location.
 269                   The default location for these properties continue to be the same
 270                   as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
 271                   Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
 272                   return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
 273

 280               4. KS -  18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
 281 karl    1.62     This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
 282                  reset when a value is "set" or copied into them.  the XML and MOF
 283                  also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
 284                  There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
 285                  the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
 286 karl    1.63     
 287 kumpf   1.67  5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
 288 karl    1.62  
 289 kumpf   1.67  6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
 290 karl    1.64     Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
 291               
 292 kumpf   1.67  7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to 
 293 kumpf   1.65  loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal() 
 294               method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system 
 295               configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use 
 296               modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
 297               
 298 kumpf   1.67  8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
 299 karl    1.66  schema directory.  The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
 300               will be deleted.
 301               
 302 kumpf   1.67  9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
 303               
 304               10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
 305 karl    1.66  
 306 kumpf   1.67  11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
 307                   checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
 308                   Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
 309                   This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
 310                   for remote clients.
 311 karl    1.66  
 312 kumpf   1.68  12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
 313                   method (InvokeMethod) operations.  This change involves the addition
 314                   of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags.  This tag
 315                   allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
 316                   having to look up the method definition in the schema.  It also allows
 317                   the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
 318                   values.
 319               
 320                   PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
 321               
 322                   Method providers ARE affected by this change.  Previously, all input
 323                   parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
 324                   regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
 325                   was defined.  With this change, providers will now receive input
 326                   parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
 327                   application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
 328               
 329                   However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
 330                   API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute.  In this case, the operation
 331                   processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
 332                   and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
 333 kumpf   1.68      The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
 334                   XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
 335                   will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
 336                   specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
 337                   specified in the method definition.
 338               
 339                   CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
 340               
 341                   Clients ARE affected by this change.  Any output parameters that are
 342                   returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
 343                   attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
 344                   sent by the server.  Previously, they would have always been of
 345                   String type.  In addition, the return value will be received as the
 346                   correct type rather than as a String.
 347               
 348                   Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
 349                   PARAMTYPE attribute.  In this case, the client will see a
 350                   CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
 351                   String.  Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
 352                   PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type.  These return
 353                   values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
 354 kumpf   1.68      because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
 355               
 356                   This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
 357                   Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
 358                   implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
 359               
 360                   SIDE EFFECTS:
 361               
 362                   In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
 363                   that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
 364                   CIMReferences.  This appeared to be an oversight, since method
 365                   parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences.  I've
 366                   added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
 367               
 368                   I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
 369                   clean-up, which I completed.
 370               
 371                   SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
 372               
 373                   A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
 374                   "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
 375 kumpf   1.68      (currently dispatcher).  This is achieved by looking up the
 376                   relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
 377                   the specified value to that property's type.
 378               
 379                   The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
 380                   inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
 381                   extra processing.  However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
 382                   ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
 383               
 384                   The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
 385                   information.  Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
 386                   always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
 387                   against any server (Pegasus or not).  Clients that require properties
 388                   to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
 389                   a property list) rather than GetProperty.
 390               
 391 kumpf   1.69  13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
 392                   Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
 393                   class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
 394                   This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
 395                   and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
 396                   The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
 397                   encoding of parameter values.
 398               
 399                   An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
 400                   behavior outlined in item 12 above.  Clients should use the isTyped()
 401                   method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
 402                   InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
 403                   have defaulted to String type.
 404 karl    1.70      
 405               14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
 406                   Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
 407 karl    1.72    
 408 kumpf   1.71  15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept 
 409                   username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new 
 410                   method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server 
 411                   and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from 
 412                   the server.
 413 karl    1.72      
 414               16  (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
 415                   all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
 416                  
 417 kumpf   1.73  17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager 
 418                   to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and 
 419                   indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
 420                   operations.
 421               
 422                   Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
 423 karl    1.74      
 424               18  (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
 425                   definition of CIMFlavors.
 426 karl    1.76      
 427 kumpf   1.68  
 428 kumpf   1.75  19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
 429                   eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
 430                   nested method call structure.  Now, instead of having a method at
 431                   each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
 432                   are separate methods to add the begin and end tags.  At the top
 433                   level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
 434                   "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
 435               
 436                   The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
 437                   payload and then again when the HTTP header is added.  (Since the
 438                   HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
 439                   constructed until the payload is complete.)  It is possible to
 440                   remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
 441                   changes elsewhere in the code.  For example, the HTTPMessage class
 442                   would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
 443                   a single buffer.
 444               
 445                   Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup.  Much of the XML
 446                   formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter.  Also,
 447                   error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
 448                   various encoders and decoders, etc.
 449 kumpf   1.75  
 450               20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
 451                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
 452                   that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
 453                   with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
 454               
 455                   Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
 456                   CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
 457                   validated.
 458 karl    1.76  
 459               21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
 460                   qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
 461                   Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
 462 karl    1.78      
 463 kumpf   1.77  22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
 464                   Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
 465               
 466                       Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
 467                       HTTPConnector* connector;
 468                       connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
 469                       Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000;    // optional
 470               
 471                       CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
 472               
 473                   With this change, the client application now looks like:
 474               
 475                       Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000;    // optional
 476               
 477                       CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
 478               
 479                   The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
 480                   constructor.  It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
 481                   connection rather than of the client API.  So instead of adding an SSL
 482                   context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
 483                   connect() method.  There are now forms of the connect() method with and
 484 kumpf   1.77      without an SSL context.  Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
 485                   class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
 486                   rather than in the constructor.
 487               
 488                   NOTE:  Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
 489                   change.  I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
 490                   included in the Pegasus build.

 495 kumpf   1.79  24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
 496                   include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
 497                   However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the 
 498                   CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
 499                   for that purpose.   
 500               
 501                   A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
 502               
 503                   - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
 504                     A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
 505                     as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
 506                     trace file.  This message will include the source filename and the
 507                     line number of the CIMException originator.
 508               
 509                     Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
 510               
 511                   - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
 512                     A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
 513                     input and writes the String to the trace file.
 514               
 515                     (ex.)
 516 kumpf   1.79        You can issue the following method call:
 517                        Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
 518               
 519                     or use the following new macro:
 520                        PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
 521                   
 522 ramnath 1.81  25.  (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
 523 ramnath 1.80  	several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix.  Added
 524               	one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in 
 525               	the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
 526               	This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first 
 527               	operator to be "OR"ed.
 528 ramnath 1.81  
 529               26.  (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that 
 530               	Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
 531               	of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and 
 532               	PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file 
 533               	streams.  Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
 534               	fstream object.  Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef 
 535               	block detecting a build on Tru64 was used.  Added cstdarg and ctime in
 536               	pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
 537 ramnath 1.80  
 538 mary    1.82  27.  (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
 539               	again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could 
 540               	not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly 
 541               	in the Windows service work thread.
 542               
 543 karl    1.83  28.  (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
 544                       local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof) 
 545               	executable
 546                      
 547               29.  (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
 548                       executable. 
 549 kumpf   1.84  
 550               30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
 551                   Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp.  Previously, values that were out of
 552                   range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size.  An
 553                   exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
 554                   an integer of the specified size.
 555               
 556 kumpf   1.85  31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
 557                   in XmlReader.cpp.
 558               
 559 kumpf   1.86  32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic 
 560                   Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication 
 561                   releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified 
 562                   the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
 563               
 564 karl    1.88  33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
 565                   with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
 566 ramnath 1.87  	InstanceDataFile.cpp
 567 karl    1.88  	
 568               34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
 569                   enabled the scope and flavors testing.  Had been pretty much blocked before.
 570                   
 571 kumpf   1.89  35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
 572                   request messages to provider API calls.  Cleaned up the dispatcher and
 573                   added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
 574                   ModuleController.  Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
 575                   ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
 576                   providers working.  Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
 577                   Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
 578                   linked into the server.
 579 karl    1.88  
 580 kumpf   1.90  36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
 581                   the ModuleController as a control provider.  Moved the UserAuthProvider
 582                   from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
 583               
 584 kumpf   1.91  37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
 585                   ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
 586                   provider.  Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
 587                   ControlProviders directory.  Obsoleted and removed the
 588                   Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
 589 karl    1.92      
 590               38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
 591                   extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
 592                   use.  This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.
 593                   
 594 kumpf   1.91  
 595 karl    1.59  -------------------------------------------------------------------
 596 karl    1.52  Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
 597               
 598               1. Merged back to Main branch.  All general development will be in main branch 
 599                      in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
 600                      may temporarily be in side branches.
 601                      Changed cimversion to 1.06.  We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
 602 karl    1.53         
 603               2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository 
 604               	implementations will be kept to separate them from the 
 605               	repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
 606               	which is the current file based repository.
 607               	
 608               	Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
 609               	to remove an existing repository.  It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
 610               	command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
 611               	in the future.
 612 karl    1.52  
 613 kumpf   1.54  3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
 614                  to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
 615                  present.  If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
 616                  exception is thrown.  Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
 617                  intrinsic methods.  If a parameter is specified more than once, a
 618                  CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
 619               
 620 kumpf   1.57  4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
 621 kumpf   1.55     and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
 622                  queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
 623                  CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
 624                  Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
 625                  it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
 626               
 627 kumpf   1.57  5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it 
 628 mary    1.56     runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running 
 629                  forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver 
 630                  service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient 
 631                  program.
 632               
 633 kumpf   1.58  6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription, 
 634                   CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
 635                   in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
 636                   CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 637                   CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 638                   CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 639                   CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 640                   CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 641                   CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 642               
 643                   This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
 644                   CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from 
 645                   IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear. 
 646               
 647                   IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
 648                   when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
 649                   CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 650                   CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 651               
 652                   I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
 653                   and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
 654 kumpf   1.58      old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a 
 655                   plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
 656               
 657                   There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create 
 658                   Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
 659               
 660                   Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

 668               Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
 669               
 670 mike    1.50  1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
 671                  PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
 672               
 673               2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
 674 mike    1.51  =======
 675               1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
 676               	seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
 677               	
 678               2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
 679               	to the final version in Schemas\CIM25.  This included minor
 680               	corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
 681               	official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF.  This change
 682               	should not affect any current work.
 683               3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
 684               	directorys.  Note however that today the make repository still
 685               	loads the 2.5 schema.
 686               	
 687               4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
 688                       on XML output.
 689                       
 690               5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
 691               in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
 692               RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp).  aCC scopes variable
 693               declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
 694               "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
 695 mike    1.51  
 696               6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove 
 697               dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the 
 698               cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files 
 699               and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that 
 700               were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config 
 701               provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified 
 702               provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI 
 703               to show user friendly error/status messages.
 704                       
 705               7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI 
 706               (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).  
 707               Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in 
 708               generating debug output.
 709               
 710               8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
 711               xml when it generates xml output.
 712               
 713               9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
 714               a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
 715               repository implementation.
 716 mike    1.51  
 717               10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
 718               
 719               11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
 720               
 721               12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
 722               
 723               13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
 724               
 725               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.
 726               
 727               15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
 728                   CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
 729               
 730               16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
 731               
 732               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.
 733               
 734               18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.

 736               19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
 737 mike    1.51      interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
 738                   a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
 739               
 740               20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
 741                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML 
 742                   input and output can be written in a trace file.
 743               
 744               21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
 745                   Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
 746                   deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
 747               
 748               22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
 749                   ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
 750                   consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
 751                   indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
 752                   implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
 753                   RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
 754                   are modified to implement above messages. 
 755               
 756                   XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
 757                   operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
 758 mike    1.51      instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
 759                   indication to consumer. This program needs
 760                   src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof 
 761                   and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
 762                   in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
 763                   program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
 764                   modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
 765                   below:
 766               
 767                   //====================================================================
 768                   //  CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
 769                   //====================================================================
 770                   [Description (
 771                     "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
 772                     "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
 773                     "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
 774               
 775               23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
 776                   ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
 777                   a provider library.
 778               
 779 mike    1.51  24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
 780                   interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
 781                   type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
 782                   information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
 783                   to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
 784                   parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
 785                   call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
 786                   travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
 787                   CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
 788                   later). 
 789               
 790                   Also added are two test programs: 
 791               	
 792                   src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
 793                       CIMParamValue class.
 794               	
 795                   src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
 796                       InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
 797                       implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
 798                       and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
 799                       CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
 800 mike    1.51          which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
 801               
 802               25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
 803                   authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
 804                   and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
 805                   module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
 806                   interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
 807                   and to verify the authentication.
 808               
 809                   A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
 810                   This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
 811                   yet linked into the build.
 812               
 813               26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
 814                   Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
 815                   before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
 816                   request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
 817                   New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
 818                   appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
 819                   _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
 820               
 821 mike    1.51  27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
 822                   fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
 823                   providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
 824                   construction (appending .sl or .so) from
 825                   CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
 826                   ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
 827                   provider file path name.
 828               
 829               28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
 830                   Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
 831                   definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
 832                   structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
 833                   Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
 834                   agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
 835                   Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
 836                   implement specific trap delivery mechanism. 
 837               
 838               29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
 839                   be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
 840                   property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
 841                   plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
 842 mike    1.51  
 843               30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer 
 844                   to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
 845                   string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface. 
 846                   Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
 847               
 848               31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
 849                   NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
 850                   were added:  platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
 851                   library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak, 
 852                   program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
 853                   all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
 854                   only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
 855                   library.mak were changed to include the NSK files. 
 856                   File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
 857               
 858               32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
 859                   commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
 860                   
 861               33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
 862               
 863 mike    1.51  34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
 864                   pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
 865                   the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
 866                   leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
 867                   in make files.
 868                  
 869               35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25 
 870                   because getting an error in 26
 871               
 872               35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
 873                   whose types are references.  These reference values must be
 874                   treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
 875                   tag structure.
 876               
 877                   Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
 878                   For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
 879                   type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
 880               
 881                   I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
 882                   CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
 883                   XML in the proper format.  However, making that change required
 884 mike    1.51      that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
 885                   of String type and a key of reference type.
 886               
 887                   I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
 888                   allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
 889                   reference type.  The "official" form uses the same encoding for
 890                   key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
 891                   would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
 892                   the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
 893                   key values.  This is clearly too inefficient for internal
 894                   transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
 895               
 896                   The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
 897                   for a key of reference type (before the opening '"').  This allows
 898                   the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
 899                   reference type.
 900               
 901                   In this example:
 902               
 903                       MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
 904               
 905 mike    1.51      Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
 906                   the usual encoding.  Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
 907                   is inserted before its encoded value.  Note that this algorithm is
 908                   recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
 909                   which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
 910               
 911                   The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry.  A new
 912                   KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
 913                   CIMReference that are of reference type.  This KeyBinding type must
 914                   be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
 915                   correctly.
 916               
 917                   The files that have been modified to make this change are
 918                   CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
 919               
 920                   A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
 921                   repository will include this extra 'R' character.  Thus, you will
 922                   need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
 923                   CIMOM version.
 924               
 925                   Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
 926 mike    1.51      names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
 927                   instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
 928                   therefore unacceptable.  It is likely that these points will need
 929                   to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
 930                   definition to determine the key property types.
 931               
 932               36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components 
 933                   in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
 934                   init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with 
 935                   cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
 936               
 937               37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference 
 938                   (instanceName).
 939               
 940               38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
 941                   GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
 942                   Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
 943                   relevant intrinsic methods.
 944               
 945               39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
 946                   ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
 947 mike    1.51  
 948               40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
 949                   files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
 950                   TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
 951                   IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
 952                   SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
 953                   (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
 954                   nsk platform links. 
 955               
 956               41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
 957                   toString() method for CIMValues of String type.  The old behavior
 958                   returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
 959                   replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents.  For example, a CIMValue of a"b
 960                   would be returned as a&quot;b.  The new behavior just returns the
 961                   String value directly with no translation.  (Note that
 962                   CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
 963               
 964                   This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
 965                   repository.  CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
 966                   CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
 967                   CIMValue.toString().  GetInstance searches for the instance name
 968 mike    1.51      without UTF-8 encoding of special characters.  For GetInstance to
 969                   be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
 970                   in that same form, without special character encoding.
 971               
 972               42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
 973                   the CIMValue class.  Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
 974                   often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
 975                   Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
 976               
 977               43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function 
 978                   localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class 
 979                   to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the 
 980                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>. 
 981                   Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
 982               
 983               44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
 984                   to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
 985                   from EnumerateInstances.  The client and provider APIs need to
 986                   be updated to use this class.
 987               
 988               45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line 
 989 mike    1.51      source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing 
 990                   of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider 
 991                   functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function 
 992                   String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
 993               
 994               46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
 995                   the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
 996                   the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
 997                   Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
 998                   responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
 999                   supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
1000               
1001               47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
1002               
1003                     - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
1004                         to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
1005                     - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
1006                         CIMNamedInstance
1007                     - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
1008                     - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
1009                         CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
1010 mike    1.51  
1011                   Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
1012               
1013                   These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
1014                   API.  For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
1015                   differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
1016                   However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
1017                   functionality.
1018               
1019                   When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
1020               
1021                     - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1022                         they are required to respect.  Providers that can not process the
1023                         PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1024                         list is not null.  Clients can take advantage of this change by
1025                         issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1026                         properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1027                         the entire instance.
1028               
1029                     - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1030                         instances in the EnumerateInstances method.  Clients will receive
1031 mike    1.51            these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1032               
1033                     - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
1034                         PropertyList instead of an Array<String>.  This change allows
1035                         providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
1036               
1037                   Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
1038                   ModifyInstance correctly.
1039               
1040               48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
1041                   provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
1042                   ModifyInstance operations.  These changes were made to comply with
1043                   the DMTF specification.
1044               
1045                   The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
1046                   plans to do so.  Providers written to the original API will
1047                   continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
1048                   to take advantage of the features that have been added.
1049               
1050                   The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
1051               
1052 mike    1.51        - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1053                         they are required to respect.  Providers that can not process the
1054                         PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1055                         list is not null.  Clients can take advantage of this change by
1056                         issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1057                         properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1058                         the entire instance.
1059               
1060                     - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
1061                         which they are required to respect.  If IncludeQualifiers is
1062                         false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
1063                         be used to update the instance.
1064               
1065                     - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1066                         instances in the EnumerateInstances method.  Clients will receive
1067                         these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1068               
1069                   The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1070                   However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1071                   a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1072               
1073 mike    1.51  49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1074                   files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1075                   the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1076                   platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1077                   without the standard (std) namespace.
1078               
1079               50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1080                   properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1081                   repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1082               
1083                   Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1084                   default provider for instance (and association) operations.  The default
1085                   setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed.  To
1086                   disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1087                   following command before starting cimserver:
1088               
1089                       cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1090               
1091                   The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1092                   provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1093                   provider.  This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1094 mike    1.51      instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1095                   to "false".  The default value is "repository".  To register the
1096                   repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1097                   'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1098               
1099               51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1100                   pass to providers that act as services.  This handle provides
1101                   service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1102               
1103               52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1104                   the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1105                   PropertyList parameters.  Updated SetProperty in the repository
1106                   so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly.  The repository now
1107                   supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1108               
1109                   Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1110                   Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1111                   ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider.  Providers
1112                   written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1113                   ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1114                   operations.  Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1115 mike    1.51      work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1116               
1117               53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1118                   Security components for authentication and authorization. 
1119               
1120                   Authentication and User Management:
1121                   cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1122                   and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1123                   in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd 
1124                   generated password file. 
1125               
1126                   cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1127                   to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1128                   
1129                   User Manager and  User Manager Provider  components implement the user 
1130                   management and authorization functionality.   
1131               
1132               54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1133                   under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1134               
1135               55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1136 mike    1.51      which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1137                   It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1138               
1139               56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1140                   and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1141                   NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1142                 
1143               57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1144                   subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the 
1145                   CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler 
1146                   classes (from CIM_Events27.mof).  The service also takes appropriate action
1147                   in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider, 
1148                   or change in provider registration.  
1149               
1150               58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1151                   and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1152                   For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper 
1153                   in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1154               
1155               59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1156                   It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1157 mike    1.51      in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1158                   constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1159                   structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1160                   MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1161                   between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1162                   is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1163                   How to use it in a Server or Client:
1164                   1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1165                   2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1166                      SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1167                      without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
1168 mike    1.50  
1169 mike    1.51      The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1170                   cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1171               
1172               60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1179               1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1180                  indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1181                  and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1182               
1183                  Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1184                  make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1185               
1186                  Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1187                  SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1188               
1189               2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1190                  library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1191                  are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1192                  and SimpleThread.

1208                  Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1209                  in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1210                  in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1211                  using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1212                  mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1213                  is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1214                  information on running the test script.

1216 mike    1.51  6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1217                  (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1218                  functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1219               
1220               7. (Bapu Patil - HP)  Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1221                  Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1222                  that
1223                  connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1224                  password.
1225                  Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1226                  This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1227                  build.
1228                  When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1229                  modified to integrate with the framework.

1257               
1258               5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps

1282 karl    1.35  Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
1283 karl    1.16  
1284               1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day.  This includes code bothe
1285               for NT and Linux platforms.
1286 mike    1.26  
1287 karl    1.17  2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1288               5988.
1289               NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1290               the DMTF.
1291 mike    1.26  
1292 karl    1.17  3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1293               Fusion event.  THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1294               CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF.  Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1295               Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
1296 mike    1.26  
1297 bob     1.18  4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1298               and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}.  This is the first step in
1299               revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
1300 mike    1.26  
1301 bob     1.19  5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1302               Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1303               Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1304               files instead of generating your own for a particular platform.  This should
1305               prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1306               code.  The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
1307 bob     1.20  (grb)
1308 mike    1.26  
1309 bob     1.20  6.  Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1310               This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1311               to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
1312 mike    1.26  
1313 karl    1.21  7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
1314 mike    1.26  
1315 karl    1.25  8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1316               modifyClass,
1317 chip    1.22  createClass to protect caller's object.
1318 mike    1.26  
1319 karl    1.25  9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1320               directory. These
1321               interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1322               CIMProviderStub has
1323 chip    1.23  been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
1324 mike    1.26  
1325 sage    1.24  10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
1326 mike    1.26  
1327 karl    1.25  11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository.  To rebuild
1328               repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
1329 mike    1.26  
1330               12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
1331 mike    1.27      (MEB)
1332               
1333               13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1334                   Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1335                   Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1336                   Need to handle deleteInstance().
1337                   (MEB)
1338 mike    1.26  
1339 mday    1.28  14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1340               
1341 karl    1.30  15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1342               AssociationName
1343 karl    1.29  and ReferenceName functions.  This included extensive update to the HTML
1344               pages.
1345               
1346 karl    1.30  16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
1347 sage    1.31  
1348               17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1349               ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1350               Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1351               variables.
1352 mike    1.32  
1353               18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1354                   References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1355                   on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
1356 kumpf   1.34  
1357               19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1358                   changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1359                   buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1360                   change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1361                   lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1362                   and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1363                   these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
1364 karl    1.35  
1365               20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1366                   tests for stack and queue.

1378               	is
1379 karl    1.11  	   trace to log, -t is trace to console).
1380               	c. add parameter in optionsrow for help message and enable the capture
1381 karl    1.12  	   of these messages in Options class.  Also added help print that
1382               	   prints these things out.  However, format not to beautiful.
1383 karl    1.11  	d. Eliminate a couple of messages coming from __Namespace provider.
1384               	e. Extend the Clients\testclient so he does tests on Namespace.
1385 karl    1.15  2. (KS)Extended Log to show time, severity.
1386 mike    1.33  
1387 karl    1.15  3. (KS)Added getCurrentASCIITime functions to System.x

1400               not
1401 karl    1.14  print out all of the message.  At the least it prints out the error message
1402               and components of the message causing the problem.
1403 mike    1.33  
1404 karl    1.15  8. (KS)Added clean option to server but temprarily disabled.

1443               1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1444               qualifiers, methods.
1445               2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1446               methods.
1447               3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1448               qualifiers and to
1449               remove qualifiers.
1450               4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1451               compiler.  It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
1452 karl    1.2   the current compiler.  This version of the port produces an excessively large
1453               common module due to template bloat.  That problem will be fixed in a future
1454               change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1455               by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems.  The port has been tested
1456               with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
