   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.

 245 kumpf   1.133 40. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 May 2002 - HP-Nag: Added SSL Certificate verification
 246                   code in TLS.cpp, created a new class CertificateInfo to pass certificate
 247                   information to the client's call back function. Modified CIMServer.cpp and
 248                   the Command lines that are using SSLContext to pass a call back function.
 249                   Fixed few display messages in CIMConfigCommand.cpp to show meaningfule
 250                   messages when CIM server is not running.
 251               
 252 kumpf   1.134 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 May 2002 - Moved CIM*::toXml() methods to
 253                   XmlWriter::append*Element().  Moved CIM*::print() methods to
 254                   XmlWriter::print*Element().  Putting this function in XmlWriter
 255                   instead of the CIM* classes keeps those internal methods out of
 256                   the published client and provider APIs.
 257               
 258 kumpf   1.135 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 May 2002 - Moved CIM*::toMof() methods to
 259                   a new MofWriter class as MofWriter::append*Element().  Moved
 260                   CIM*::printMof() methods to MofWriter::print*Element().

 284                   class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
 285                   location, Provider location and Consumer location.
 286                   The default location for these properties continue to be the same
 287                   as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
 288                   Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
 289                   return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.

 298 karl    1.62     This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
 299                  reset when a value is "set" or copied into them.  the XML and MOF
 300                  also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
 301                  There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
 302                  the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.

 311               method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system 
 312               configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use 
 313               modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.

 324                   checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
 325                   Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
 326                   This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
 327                   for remote clients.
 328 karl    1.66  
 329 kumpf   1.68  12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
 330                   method (InvokeMethod) operations.  This change involves the addition
 331                   of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags.  This tag
 332                   allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
 333                   having to look up the method definition in the schema.  It also allows
 334                   the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
 335                   values.
 336               
 337                   PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
 338               
 339                   Method providers ARE affected by this change.  Previously, all input
 340                   parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
 341                   regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
 342                   was defined.  With this change, providers will now receive input
 343                   parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
 344                   application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
 345               
 346                   However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
 347                   API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute.  In this case, the operation
 348                   processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
 349                   and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
 350 kumpf   1.68      The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
 351                   XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
 352                   will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
 353                   specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
 354                   specified in the method definition.
 355               
 356                   CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
 357               
 358                   Clients ARE affected by this change.  Any output parameters that are
 359                   returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
 360                   attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
 361                   sent by the server.  Previously, they would have always been of
 362                   String type.  In addition, the return value will be received as the
 363                   correct type rather than as a String.
 364               
 365                   Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
 366                   PARAMTYPE attribute.  In this case, the client will see a
 367                   CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
 368                   String.  Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
 369                   PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type.  These return
 370                   values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
 371 kumpf   1.68      because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
 372               
 373                   This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
 374                   Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
 375                   implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
 376               
 377                   SIDE EFFECTS:
 378               
 379                   In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
 380                   that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
 381                   CIMReferences.  This appeared to be an oversight, since method
 382                   parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences.  I've
 383                   added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
 384               
 385                   I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
 386                   clean-up, which I completed.
 387               
 388                   SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
 389               
 390                   A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
 391                   "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
 392 kumpf   1.68      (currently dispatcher).  This is achieved by looking up the
 393                   relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
 394                   the specified value to that property's type.
 395               
 396                   The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
 397                   inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
 398                   extra processing.  However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
 399                   ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
 400               
 401                   The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
 402                   information.  Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
 403                   always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
 404                   against any server (Pegasus or not).  Clients that require properties
 405                   to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
 406                   a property list) rather than GetProperty.
 407               
 408 kumpf   1.69  13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
 409                   Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
 410                   class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
 411                   This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
 412                   and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
 413                   The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
 414                   encoding of parameter values.
 415               
 416                   An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
 417                   behavior outlined in item 12 above.  Clients should use the isTyped()
 418                   method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
 419                   InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
 420                   have defaulted to String type.

 424 karl    1.72    
 425 kumpf   1.71  15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept 
 426                   username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new 
 427                   method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server 
 428                   and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from 
 429                   the server.

 433                  
 434 kumpf   1.73  17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager 
 435                   to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and 
 436                   indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
 437                   operations.
 438               
 439                   Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
 440 karl    1.74      
 441               18  (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
 442                   definition of CIMFlavors.
 443 karl    1.76      
 444 kumpf   1.68  
 445 kumpf   1.75  19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
 446                   eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
 447                   nested method call structure.  Now, instead of having a method at
 448                   each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
 449                   are separate methods to add the begin and end tags.  At the top
 450                   level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
 451                   "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
 452               
 453                   The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
 454                   payload and then again when the HTTP header is added.  (Since the
 455                   HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
 456                   constructed until the payload is complete.)  It is possible to
 457                   remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
 458                   changes elsewhere in the code.  For example, the HTTPMessage class
 459                   would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
 460                   a single buffer.
 461               
 462                   Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup.  Much of the XML
 463                   formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter.  Also,
 464                   error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
 465                   various encoders and decoders, etc.
 466 kumpf   1.75  
 467               20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
 468                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
 469                   that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
 470                   with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
 471               
 472                   Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
 473                   CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
 474                   validated.

 476               21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
 477                   qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
 478                   Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
 479 karl    1.78      
 480 kumpf   1.77  22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
 481                   Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
 482               
 483                       Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
 484                       HTTPConnector* connector;
 485                       connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
 486                       Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000;    // optional
 487               
 488                       CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
 489               
 490                   With this change, the client application now looks like:
 491               
 492                       Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000;    // optional
 493               
 494                       CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
 495               
 496                   The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
 497                   constructor.  It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
 498                   connection rather than of the client API.  So instead of adding an SSL
 499                   context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
 500                   connect() method.  There are now forms of the connect() method with and
 501 kumpf   1.77      without an SSL context.  Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
 502                   class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
 503                   rather than in the constructor.
 504               
 505                   NOTE:  Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
 506                   change.  I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
 507                   included in the Pegasus build.
 508 kumpf   1.79  
 509 karl    1.78  23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
 510                   of fixed length arrays to be lost.
 511 kumpf   1.75  
 512 kumpf   1.79  24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
 513                   include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
 514                   However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the 
 515                   CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
 516                   for that purpose.   
 517               
 518                   A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
 519               
 520                   - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
 521                     A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
 522                     as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
 523                     trace file.  This message will include the source filename and the
 524                     line number of the CIMException originator.
 525               
 526                     Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
 527               
 528                   - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
 529                     A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
 530                     input and writes the String to the trace file.
 531               
 532                     (ex.)
 533 kumpf   1.79        You can issue the following method call:
 534                        Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
 535               
 536                     or use the following new macro:
 537                        PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
 538                   
 539 ramnath 1.81  25.  (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
 540 ramnath 1.80  	several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix.  Added
 541               	one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in 
 542               	the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
 543               	This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first 
 544               	operator to be "OR"ed.
 545 ramnath 1.81  
 546               26.  (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that 
 547               	Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
 548               	of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and 
 549               	PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file 
 550               	streams.  Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
 551               	fstream object.  Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef 
 552               	block detecting a build on Tru64 was used.  Added cstdarg and ctime in
 553               	pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
 554 ramnath 1.80  
 555 mary    1.82  27.  (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
 556               	again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could 
 557               	not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly 
 558               	in the Windows service work thread.
 559               
 560 karl    1.83  28.  (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
 561                       local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof) 
 562               	executable
 563                      
 564               29.  (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
 565                       executable. 
 566 kumpf   1.84  
 567               30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
 568                   Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp.  Previously, values that were out of
 569                   range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size.  An
 570                   exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
 571                   an integer of the specified size.
 572               
 573 kumpf   1.85  31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
 574                   in XmlReader.cpp.
 575               
 576 kumpf   1.86  32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic 
 577                   Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication 
 578                   releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified 
 579                   the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
 580               
 581 karl    1.88  33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
 582                   with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
 583 ramnath 1.87  	InstanceDataFile.cpp
 584 karl    1.88  	
 585               34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
 586                   enabled the scope and flavors testing.  Had been pretty much blocked before.
 587                   
 588 kumpf   1.89  35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
 589                   request messages to provider API calls.  Cleaned up the dispatcher and
 590                   added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
 591                   ModuleController.  Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
 592                   ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
 593                   providers working.  Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
 594                   Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
 595                   linked into the server.
 596 karl    1.88  
 597 kumpf   1.90  36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
 598                   the ModuleController as a control provider.  Moved the UserAuthProvider
 599                   from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
 600               
 601 kumpf   1.91  37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
 602                   ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
 603                   provider.  Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
 604                   ControlProviders directory.  Obsoleted and removed the
 605                   Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
 606 karl    1.92      
 607               38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
 608                   extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
 609                   use.  This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.
 610                   
 611 kumpf   1.91  
 612 karl    1.59  -------------------------------------------------------------------
 613 karl    1.52  Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
 614               
 615               1. Merged back to Main branch.  All general development will be in main branch 
 616                      in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
 617                      may temporarily be in side branches.
 618                      Changed cimversion to 1.06.  We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
 619 karl    1.53         
 620               2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository 
 621               	implementations will be kept to separate them from the 
 622               	repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
 623               	which is the current file based repository.
 624               	
 625               	Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
 626               	to remove an existing repository.  It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
 627               	command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
 628               	in the future.
 629 karl    1.52  
 630 kumpf   1.54  3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
 631                  to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
 632                  present.  If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
 633                  exception is thrown.  Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
 634                  intrinsic methods.  If a parameter is specified more than once, a
 635                  CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
 636               
 637 kumpf   1.57  4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
 638 kumpf   1.55     and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
 639                  queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
 640                  CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
 641                  Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
 642                  it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
 643               
 644 kumpf   1.57  5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it 
 645 mary    1.56     runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running 
 646                  forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver 
 647                  service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient 
 648                  program.
 649               
 650 kumpf   1.58  6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription, 
 651                   CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
 652                   in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
 653                   CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 654                   CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 655                   CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 656                   CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 657                   CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 658                   CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 659               
 660                   This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
 661                   CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from 
 662                   IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear. 
 663               
 664                   IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
 665                   when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
 666                   CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 667                   CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 668               
 669                   I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
 670                   and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
 671 kumpf   1.58      old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a 
 672                   plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
 673               
 674                   There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create 
 675                   Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
 676               
 677                   Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

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

 745                   CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
 746               
 747               16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
 748               
 749               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.
 750               
 751               18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
 752               
 753               19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
 754 mike    1.51      interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
 755                   a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
 756               
 757               20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
 758                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML 
 759                   input and output can be written in a trace file.
 760               
 761               21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
 762                   Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
 763                   deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
 764               
 765               22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
 766                   ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
 767                   consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
 768                   indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
 769                   implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
 770                   RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
 771                   are modified to implement above messages. 
 772               
 773                   XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
 774                   operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
 775 mike    1.51      instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
 776                   indication to consumer. This program needs
 777                   src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof 
 778                   and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
 779                   in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
 780                   program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
 781                   modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
 782                   below:
 783               
 784                   //====================================================================
 785                   //  CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
 786                   //====================================================================
 787                   [Description (
 788                     "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
 789                     "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
 790                     "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
 791               
 792               23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
 793                   ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
 794                   a provider library.
 795               
 796 mike    1.51  24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
 797                   interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
 798                   type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
 799                   information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
 800                   to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
 801                   parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
 802                   call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
 803                   travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
 804                   CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
 805                   later). 
 806               
 807                   Also added are two test programs: 
 808               	
 809                   src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
 810                       CIMParamValue class.
 811               	
 812                   src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
 813                       InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
 814                       implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
 815                       and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
 816                       CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
 817 mike    1.51          which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
 818               
 819               25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
 820                   authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
 821                   and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
 822                   module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
 823                   interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
 824                   and to verify the authentication.
 825               
 826                   A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
 827                   This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
 828                   yet linked into the build.
 829               
 830               26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
 831                   Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
 832                   before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
 833                   request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
 834                   New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
 835                   appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
 836                   _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
 837               
 838 mike    1.51  27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
 839                   fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
 840                   providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
 841                   construction (appending .sl or .so) from
 842                   CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
 843                   ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
 844                   provider file path name.
 845               
 846               28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
 847                   Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
 848                   definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
 849                   structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
 850                   Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
 851                   agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
 852                   Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
 853                   implement specific trap delivery mechanism. 
 854               
 855               29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
 856                   be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
 857                   property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
 858                   plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
 859 mike    1.51  
 860               30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer 
 861                   to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
 862                   string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface. 
 863                   Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
 864               
 865               31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
 866                   NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
 867                   were added:  platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
 868                   library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak, 
 869                   program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
 870                   all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
 871                   only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
 872                   library.mak were changed to include the NSK files. 
 873                   File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
 874               
 875               32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
 876                   commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
 877                   
 878               33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
 879               
 880 mike    1.51  34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
 881                   pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
 882                   the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
 883                   leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
 884                   in make files.
 885                  
 886               35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25 
 887                   because getting an error in 26
 888               
 889               35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
 890                   whose types are references.  These reference values must be
 891                   treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
 892                   tag structure.
 893               
 894                   Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
 895                   For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
 896                   type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
 897               
 898                   I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
 899                   CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
 900                   XML in the proper format.  However, making that change required
 901 mike    1.51      that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
 902                   of String type and a key of reference type.
 903               
 904                   I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
 905                   allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
 906                   reference type.  The "official" form uses the same encoding for
 907                   key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
 908                   would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
 909                   the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
 910                   key values.  This is clearly too inefficient for internal
 911                   transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
 912               
 913                   The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
 914                   for a key of reference type (before the opening '"').  This allows
 915                   the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
 916                   reference type.
 917               
 918                   In this example:
 919               
 920                       MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
 921               
 922 mike    1.51      Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
 923                   the usual encoding.  Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
 924                   is inserted before its encoded value.  Note that this algorithm is
 925                   recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
 926                   which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
 927               
 928                   The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry.  A new
 929                   KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
 930                   CIMReference that are of reference type.  This KeyBinding type must
 931                   be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
 932                   correctly.
 933               
 934                   The files that have been modified to make this change are
 935                   CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
 936               
 937                   A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
 938                   repository will include this extra 'R' character.  Thus, you will
 939                   need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
 940                   CIMOM version.
 941               
 942                   Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
 943 mike    1.51      names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
 944                   instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
 945                   therefore unacceptable.  It is likely that these points will need
 946                   to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
 947                   definition to determine the key property types.
 948               
 949               36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components 
 950                   in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
 951                   init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with 
 952                   cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
 953               
 954               37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference 
 955                   (instanceName).
 956               
 957               38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
 958                   GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
 959                   Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
 960                   relevant intrinsic methods.
 961               
 962               39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
 963                   ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
 964 mike    1.51  
 965               40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
 966                   files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
 967                   TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
 968                   IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
 969                   SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
 970                   (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
 971                   nsk platform links. 
 972               
 973               41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
 974                   toString() method for CIMValues of String type.  The old behavior
 975                   returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
 976                   replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents.  For example, a CIMValue of a"b
 977                   would be returned as a&quot;b.  The new behavior just returns the
 978                   String value directly with no translation.  (Note that
 979                   CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
 980               
 981                   This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
 982                   repository.  CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
 983                   CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
 984                   CIMValue.toString().  GetInstance searches for the instance name
 985 mike    1.51      without UTF-8 encoding of special characters.  For GetInstance to
 986                   be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
 987                   in that same form, without special character encoding.
 988               
 989               42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
 990                   the CIMValue class.  Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
 991                   often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
 992                   Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
 993               
 994               43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function 
 995                   localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class 
 996                   to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the 
 997                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>. 
 998                   Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
 999               
1000               44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
1001                   to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
1002                   from EnumerateInstances.  The client and provider APIs need to
1003                   be updated to use this class.
1004               
1005               45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line 
1006 mike    1.51      source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing 
1007                   of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider 
1008                   functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function 
1009                   String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
1010               
1011               46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
1012                   the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
1013                   the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
1014                   Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
1015                   responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
1016                   supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
1017               
1018               47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
1019               
1020                     - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
1021                         to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
1022                     - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
1023                         CIMNamedInstance
1024                     - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
1025                     - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
1026                         CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
1027 mike    1.51  
1028                   Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
1029               
1030                   These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
1031                   API.  For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
1032                   differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
1033                   However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
1034                   functionality.
1035               
1036                   When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
1037               
1038                     - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1039                         they are required to respect.  Providers that can not process the
1040                         PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1041                         list is not null.  Clients can take advantage of this change by
1042                         issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1043                         properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1044                         the entire instance.
1045               
1046                     - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1047                         instances in the EnumerateInstances method.  Clients will receive
1048 mike    1.51            these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1049               
1050                     - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
1051                         PropertyList instead of an Array<String>.  This change allows
1052                         providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
1053               
1054                   Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
1055                   ModifyInstance correctly.
1056               
1057               48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
1058                   provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
1059                   ModifyInstance operations.  These changes were made to comply with
1060                   the DMTF specification.
1061               
1062                   The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
1063                   plans to do so.  Providers written to the original API will
1064                   continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
1065                   to take advantage of the features that have been added.
1066               
1067                   The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
1068               
1069 mike    1.51        - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1070                         they are required to respect.  Providers that can not process the
1071                         PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1072                         list is not null.  Clients can take advantage of this change by
1073                         issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1074                         properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1075                         the entire instance.
1076               
1077                     - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
1078                         which they are required to respect.  If IncludeQualifiers is
1079                         false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
1080                         be used to update the instance.
1081               
1082                     - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1083                         instances in the EnumerateInstances method.  Clients will receive
1084                         these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1085               
1086                   The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1087                   However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1088                   a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1089               
1090 mike    1.51  49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1091                   files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1092                   the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1093                   platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1094                   without the standard (std) namespace.
1095               
1096               50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1097                   properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1098                   repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1099               
1100                   Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1101                   default provider for instance (and association) operations.  The default
1102                   setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed.  To
1103                   disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1104                   following command before starting cimserver:
1105               
1106                       cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1107               
1108                   The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1109                   provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1110                   provider.  This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1111 mike    1.51      instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1112                   to "false".  The default value is "repository".  To register the
1113                   repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1114                   'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1115               
1116               51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1117                   pass to providers that act as services.  This handle provides
1118                   service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1119               
1120               52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1121                   the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1122                   PropertyList parameters.  Updated SetProperty in the repository
1123                   so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly.  The repository now
1124                   supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1125               
1126                   Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1127                   Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1128                   ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider.  Providers
1129                   written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1130                   ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1131                   operations.  Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1132 mike    1.51      work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1133               
1134               53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1135                   Security components for authentication and authorization. 
1136               
1137                   Authentication and User Management:
1138                   cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1139                   and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1140                   in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd 
1141                   generated password file. 
1142               
1143                   cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1144                   to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1145                   
1146                   User Manager and  User Manager Provider  components implement the user 
1147                   management and authorization functionality.   
1148               
1149               54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1150                   under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1151               
1152               55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1153 mike    1.51      which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1154                   It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1155               
1156               56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1157                   and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1158                   NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1159                 
1160               57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1161                   subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the 
1162                   CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler 
1163                   classes (from CIM_Events27.mof).  The service also takes appropriate action
1164                   in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider, 
1165                   or change in provider registration.  
1166               
1167               58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1168                   and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1169                   For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper 
1170                   in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1171               
1172               59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1173                   It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1174 mike    1.51      in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1175                   constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1176                   structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1177                   MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1178                   between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1179                   is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1180                   How to use it in a Server or Client:
1181                   1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1182                   2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1183                      SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1184                      without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
1185 mike    1.50  
1186 mike    1.51      The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1187                   cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1188               
1189               60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1237               7. (Bapu Patil - HP)  Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1238                  Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1239                  that
1240                  connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1241                  password.
1242                  Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1243                  This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1244                  build.
1245                  When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1246                  modified to integrate with the framework.

1299 karl    1.35  Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
1300 karl    1.16  
1301               1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day.  This includes code bothe
1302               for NT and Linux platforms.
1303 mike    1.26  
1304 karl    1.17  2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1305               5988.
1306               NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1307               the DMTF.
1308 mike    1.26  
1309 karl    1.17  3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1310               Fusion event.  THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1311               CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF.  Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1312               Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
1313 mike    1.26  
1314 bob     1.18  4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1315               and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}.  This is the first step in
1316               revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
1317 mike    1.26  
1318 bob     1.19  5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1319               Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1320               Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1321               files instead of generating your own for a particular platform.  This should
1322               prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1323               code.  The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
1324 bob     1.20  (grb)
1325 mike    1.26  
1326 bob     1.20  6.  Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1327               This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1328               to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
1329 mike    1.26  
1330 karl    1.21  7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
1331 mike    1.26  
1332 karl    1.25  8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1333               modifyClass,
1334 chip    1.22  createClass to protect caller's object.
1335 mike    1.26  
1336 karl    1.25  9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1337               directory. These
1338               interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1339               CIMProviderStub has
1340 chip    1.23  been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
1341 mike    1.26  
1342 sage    1.24  10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
1343 mike    1.26  
1344 karl    1.25  11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository.  To rebuild
1345               repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
1346 mike    1.26  
1347               12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
1348 mike    1.27      (MEB)
1349               
1350               13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1351                   Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1352                   Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1353                   Need to handle deleteInstance().
1354                   (MEB)
1355 mike    1.26  
1356 mday    1.28  14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1357               
1358 karl    1.30  15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1359               AssociationName
1360 karl    1.29  and ReferenceName functions.  This included extensive update to the HTML
1361               pages.
1362               
1363 karl    1.30  16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
1364 sage    1.31  
1365               17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1366               ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1367               Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1368               variables.
1369 mike    1.32  
1370               18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1371                   References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1372                   on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
1373 kumpf   1.34  
1374               19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1375                   changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1376                   buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1377                   change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1378                   lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1379                   and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1380                   these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
1381 karl    1.35  
1382               20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1383                   tests for stack and queue.

1468               compiler.  It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
1469 karl    1.2   the current compiler.  This version of the port produces an excessively large
1470               common module due to template bloat.  That problem will be fixed in a future
1471               change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1472               by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems.  The port has been tested
1473               with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
