   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().

 262 kumpf   1.136 43. (Nag Boranna - HP) 16 May 2002 - HP-Nag: Implemented SSL handling in 
 263                   CIMClient.cpp for local connection and modified the CLIs to not to pass 
 264                   SSLContext to the client api. 
 265               
 266 kumpf   1.137 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 16 May 2002 - Reworked the Array template so that
 267                   each array has its own ArrayRep copy rather than Arrays sharing
 268                   ArrayReps and reference counting.

 292                   class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
 293                   location, Provider location and Consumer location.
 294                   The default location for these properties continue to be the same
 295                   as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
 296                   Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
 297                   return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.

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

 332                   checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
 333                   Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
 334                   This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
 335                   for remote clients.
 336 karl    1.66  
 337 kumpf   1.68  12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
 338                   method (InvokeMethod) operations.  This change involves the addition
 339                   of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags.  This tag
 340                   allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
 341                   having to look up the method definition in the schema.  It also allows
 342                   the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
 343                   values.
 344               
 345                   PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
 346               
 347                   Method providers ARE affected by this change.  Previously, all input
 348                   parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
 349                   regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
 350                   was defined.  With this change, providers will now receive input
 351                   parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
 352                   application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
 353               
 354                   However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
 355                   API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute.  In this case, the operation
 356                   processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
 357                   and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
 358 kumpf   1.68      The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
 359                   XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
 360                   will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
 361                   specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
 362                   specified in the method definition.
 363               
 364                   CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
 365               
 366                   Clients ARE affected by this change.  Any output parameters that are
 367                   returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
 368                   attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
 369                   sent by the server.  Previously, they would have always been of
 370                   String type.  In addition, the return value will be received as the
 371                   correct type rather than as a String.
 372               
 373                   Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
 374                   PARAMTYPE attribute.  In this case, the client will see a
 375                   CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
 376                   String.  Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
 377                   PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type.  These return
 378                   values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
 379 kumpf   1.68      because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
 380               
 381                   This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
 382                   Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
 383                   implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
 384               
 385                   SIDE EFFECTS:
 386               
 387                   In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
 388                   that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
 389                   CIMReferences.  This appeared to be an oversight, since method
 390                   parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences.  I've
 391                   added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
 392               
 393                   I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
 394                   clean-up, which I completed.
 395               
 396                   SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
 397               
 398                   A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
 399                   "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
 400 kumpf   1.68      (currently dispatcher).  This is achieved by looking up the
 401                   relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
 402                   the specified value to that property's type.
 403               
 404                   The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
 405                   inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
 406                   extra processing.  However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
 407                   ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
 408               
 409                   The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
 410                   information.  Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
 411                   always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
 412                   against any server (Pegasus or not).  Clients that require properties
 413                   to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
 414                   a property list) rather than GetProperty.
 415               
 416 kumpf   1.69  13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
 417                   Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
 418                   class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
 419                   This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
 420                   and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
 421                   The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
 422                   encoding of parameter values.
 423               
 424                   An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
 425                   behavior outlined in item 12 above.  Clients should use the isTyped()
 426                   method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
 427                   InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
 428                   have defaulted to String type.

 432 karl    1.72    
 433 kumpf   1.71  15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept 
 434                   username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new 
 435                   method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server 
 436                   and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from 
 437                   the server.

 441                  
 442 kumpf   1.73  17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager 
 443                   to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and 
 444                   indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
 445                   operations.
 446               
 447                   Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
 448 karl    1.74      
 449               18  (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
 450                   definition of CIMFlavors.
 451 karl    1.76      
 452 kumpf   1.68  
 453 kumpf   1.75  19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
 454                   eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
 455                   nested method call structure.  Now, instead of having a method at
 456                   each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
 457                   are separate methods to add the begin and end tags.  At the top
 458                   level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
 459                   "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
 460               
 461                   The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
 462                   payload and then again when the HTTP header is added.  (Since the
 463                   HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
 464                   constructed until the payload is complete.)  It is possible to
 465                   remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
 466                   changes elsewhere in the code.  For example, the HTTPMessage class
 467                   would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
 468                   a single buffer.
 469               
 470                   Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup.  Much of the XML
 471                   formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter.  Also,
 472                   error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
 473                   various encoders and decoders, etc.
 474 kumpf   1.75  
 475               20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
 476                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
 477                   that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
 478                   with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
 479               
 480                   Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
 481                   CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
 482                   validated.

 484               21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
 485                   qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
 486                   Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
 487 karl    1.78      
 488 kumpf   1.77  22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
 489                   Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
 490               
 491                       Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
 492                       HTTPConnector* connector;
 493                       connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
 494                       Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000;    // optional
 495               
 496                       CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
 497               
 498                   With this change, the client application now looks like:
 499               
 500                       Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000;    // optional
 501               
 502                       CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
 503               
 504                   The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
 505                   constructor.  It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
 506                   connection rather than of the client API.  So instead of adding an SSL
 507                   context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
 508                   connect() method.  There are now forms of the connect() method with and
 509 kumpf   1.77      without an SSL context.  Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
 510                   class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
 511                   rather than in the constructor.
 512               
 513                   NOTE:  Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
 514                   change.  I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
 515                   included in the Pegasus build.
 516 kumpf   1.79  
 517 karl    1.78  23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
 518                   of fixed length arrays to be lost.
 519 kumpf   1.75  
 520 kumpf   1.79  24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
 521                   include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
 522                   However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the 
 523                   CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
 524                   for that purpose.   
 525               
 526                   A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
 527               
 528                   - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
 529                     A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
 530                     as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
 531                     trace file.  This message will include the source filename and the
 532                     line number of the CIMException originator.
 533               
 534                     Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
 535               
 536                   - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
 537                     A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
 538                     input and writes the String to the trace file.
 539               
 540                     (ex.)
 541 kumpf   1.79        You can issue the following method call:
 542                        Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
 543               
 544                     or use the following new macro:
 545                        PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
 546                   
 547 ramnath 1.81  25.  (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
 548 ramnath 1.80  	several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix.  Added
 549               	one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in 
 550               	the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
 551               	This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first 
 552               	operator to be "OR"ed.
 553 ramnath 1.81  
 554               26.  (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that 
 555               	Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
 556               	of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and 
 557               	PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file 
 558               	streams.  Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
 559               	fstream object.  Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef 
 560               	block detecting a build on Tru64 was used.  Added cstdarg and ctime in
 561               	pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
 562 ramnath 1.80  
 563 mary    1.82  27.  (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
 564               	again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could 
 565               	not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly 
 566               	in the Windows service work thread.
 567               
 568 karl    1.83  28.  (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
 569                       local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof) 
 570               	executable
 571                      
 572               29.  (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
 573                       executable. 
 574 kumpf   1.84  
 575               30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
 576                   Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp.  Previously, values that were out of
 577                   range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size.  An
 578                   exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
 579                   an integer of the specified size.
 580               
 581 kumpf   1.85  31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
 582                   in XmlReader.cpp.
 583               
 584 kumpf   1.86  32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic 
 585                   Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication 
 586                   releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified 
 587                   the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
 588               
 589 karl    1.88  33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
 590                   with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
 591 ramnath 1.87  	InstanceDataFile.cpp
 592 karl    1.88  	
 593               34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
 594                   enabled the scope and flavors testing.  Had been pretty much blocked before.
 595                   
 596 kumpf   1.89  35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
 597                   request messages to provider API calls.  Cleaned up the dispatcher and
 598                   added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
 599                   ModuleController.  Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
 600                   ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
 601                   providers working.  Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
 602                   Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
 603                   linked into the server.
 604 karl    1.88  
 605 kumpf   1.90  36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
 606                   the ModuleController as a control provider.  Moved the UserAuthProvider
 607                   from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
 608               
 609 kumpf   1.91  37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
 610                   ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
 611                   provider.  Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
 612                   ControlProviders directory.  Obsoleted and removed the
 613                   Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
 614 karl    1.92      
 615               38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
 616                   extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
 617                   use.  This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.
 618                   
 619 kumpf   1.91  
 620 karl    1.59  -------------------------------------------------------------------
 621 karl    1.52  Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
 622               
 623               1. Merged back to Main branch.  All general development will be in main branch 
 624                      in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
 625                      may temporarily be in side branches.
 626                      Changed cimversion to 1.06.  We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
 627 karl    1.53         
 628               2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository 
 629               	implementations will be kept to separate them from the 
 630               	repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
 631               	which is the current file based repository.
 632               	
 633               	Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
 634               	to remove an existing repository.  It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
 635               	command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
 636               	in the future.
 637 karl    1.52  
 638 kumpf   1.54  3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
 639                  to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
 640                  present.  If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
 641                  exception is thrown.  Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
 642                  intrinsic methods.  If a parameter is specified more than once, a
 643                  CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
 644               
 645 kumpf   1.57  4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
 646 kumpf   1.55     and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
 647                  queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
 648                  CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
 649                  Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
 650                  it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
 651               
 652 kumpf   1.57  5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it 
 653 mary    1.56     runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running 
 654                  forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver 
 655                  service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient 
 656                  program.
 657               
 658 kumpf   1.58  6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription, 
 659                   CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
 660                   in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
 661                   CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 662                   CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 663                   CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 664                   CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 665                   CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 666                   CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 667               
 668                   This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
 669                   CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from 
 670                   IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear. 
 671               
 672                   IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
 673                   when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
 674                   CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 675                   CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
 676               
 677                   I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
 678                   and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
 679 kumpf   1.58      old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a 
 680                   plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
 681               
 682                   There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create 
 683                   Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
 684               
 685                   Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

 693               Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
 694               
 695 mike    1.50  1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
 696                  PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
 697               
 698               2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
 699 mike    1.51  =======
 700               1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
 701               	seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
 702               	
 703               2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
 704               	to the final version in Schemas\CIM25.  This included minor
 705               	corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
 706               	official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF.  This change
 707               	should not affect any current work.
 708               3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
 709               	directorys.  Note however that today the make repository still
 710               	loads the 2.5 schema.
 711               	
 712               4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
 713                       on XML output.
 714                       
 715               5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
 716               in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
 717               RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp).  aCC scopes variable
 718               declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
 719               "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
 720 mike    1.51  
 721               6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove 
 722               dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the 
 723               cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files 
 724               and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that 
 725               were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config 
 726               provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified 
 727               provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI 
 728               to show user friendly error/status messages.
 729                       
 730               7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI 
 731               (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).  
 732               Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in 
 733               generating debug output.
 734               
 735               8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
 736               xml when it generates xml output.
 737               
 738               9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
 739               a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
 740               repository implementation.
 741 mike    1.51  
 742               10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
 743               
 744               11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
 745               
 746               12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
 747               
 748               13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
 749               
 750               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.
 751               
 752               15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
 753                   CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
 754               
 755               16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
 756               
 757               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.
 758               
 759               18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
 760               
 761               19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
 762 mike    1.51      interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
 763                   a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
 764               
 765               20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
 766                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML 
 767                   input and output can be written in a trace file.
 768               
 769               21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
 770                   Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
 771                   deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
 772               
 773               22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
 774                   ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
 775                   consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
 776                   indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
 777                   implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
 778                   RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
 779                   are modified to implement above messages. 
 780               
 781                   XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
 782                   operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
 783 mike    1.51      instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
 784                   indication to consumer. This program needs
 785                   src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof 
 786                   and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
 787                   in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
 788                   program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
 789                   modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
 790                   below:
 791               
 792                   //====================================================================
 793                   //  CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP

 796                     "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
 797                     "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
 798                     "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
 799               
 800               23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
 801                   ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
 802                   a provider library.
 803               
 804 mike    1.51  24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
 805                   interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
 806                   type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
 807                   information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
 808                   to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
 809                   parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
 810                   call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
 811                   travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
 812                   CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
 813                   later). 
 814               
 815                   Also added are two test programs: 
 816               	
 817                   src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
 818                       CIMParamValue class.
 819               	
 820                   src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
 821                       InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
 822                       implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
 823                       and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
 824                       CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
 825 mike    1.51          which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
 826               
 827               25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
 828                   authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
 829                   and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
 830                   module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
 831                   interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
 832                   and to verify the authentication.
 833               
 834                   A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
 835                   This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
 836                   yet linked into the build.
 837               
 838               26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
 839                   Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
 840                   before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
 841                   request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
 842                   New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
 843                   appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
 844                   _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
 845               
 846 mike    1.51  27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
 847                   fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
 848                   providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
 849                   construction (appending .sl or .so) from
 850                   CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
 851                   ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
 852                   provider file path name.
 853               
 854               28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
 855                   Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
 856                   definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
 857                   structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
 858                   Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
 859                   agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
 860                   Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
 861                   implement specific trap delivery mechanism. 
 862               
 863               29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
 864                   be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
 865                   property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
 866                   plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
 867 mike    1.51  
 868               30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer 
 869                   to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
 870                   string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface. 
 871                   Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
 872               
 873               31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
 874                   NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
 875                   were added:  platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
 876                   library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak, 
 877                   program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
 878                   all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
 879                   only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
 880                   library.mak were changed to include the NSK files. 
 881                   File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
 882               
 883               32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
 884                   commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
 885                   
 886               33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
 887               
 888 mike    1.51  34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
 889                   pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
 890                   the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
 891                   leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
 892                   in make files.
 893                  
 894               35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25 
 895                   because getting an error in 26
 896               
 897               35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
 898                   whose types are references.  These reference values must be
 899                   treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
 900                   tag structure.
 901               
 902                   Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
 903                   For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
 904                   type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
 905               
 906                   I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
 907                   CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
 908                   XML in the proper format.  However, making that change required
 909 mike    1.51      that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
 910                   of String type and a key of reference type.
 911               
 912                   I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
 913                   allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
 914                   reference type.  The "official" form uses the same encoding for
 915                   key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
 916                   would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
 917                   the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
 918                   key values.  This is clearly too inefficient for internal
 919                   transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
 920               
 921                   The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
 922                   for a key of reference type (before the opening '"').  This allows
 923                   the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
 924                   reference type.
 925               
 926                   In this example:
 927               
 928                       MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
 929               
 930 mike    1.51      Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
 931                   the usual encoding.  Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
 932                   is inserted before its encoded value.  Note that this algorithm is
 933                   recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
 934                   which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
 935               
 936                   The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry.  A new
 937                   KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
 938                   CIMReference that are of reference type.  This KeyBinding type must
 939                   be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
 940                   correctly.
 941               
 942                   The files that have been modified to make this change are
 943                   CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
 944               
 945                   A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
 946                   repository will include this extra 'R' character.  Thus, you will
 947                   need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
 948                   CIMOM version.
 949               
 950                   Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
 951 mike    1.51      names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
 952                   instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
 953                   therefore unacceptable.  It is likely that these points will need
 954                   to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
 955                   definition to determine the key property types.
 956               
 957               36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components 
 958                   in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
 959                   init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with 
 960                   cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
 961               
 962               37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference 
 963                   (instanceName).
 964               
 965               38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
 966                   GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
 967                   Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
 968                   relevant intrinsic methods.
 969               
 970               39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
 971                   ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
 972 mike    1.51  
 973               40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
 974                   files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
 975                   TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
 976                   IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
 977                   SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
 978                   (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
 979                   nsk platform links. 
 980               
 981               41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
 982                   toString() method for CIMValues of String type.  The old behavior
 983                   returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
 984                   replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents.  For example, a CIMValue of a"b
 985                   would be returned as a&quot;b.  The new behavior just returns the
 986                   String value directly with no translation.  (Note that
 987                   CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
 988               
 989                   This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
 990                   repository.  CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
 991                   CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
 992                   CIMValue.toString().  GetInstance searches for the instance name
 993 mike    1.51      without UTF-8 encoding of special characters.  For GetInstance to
 994                   be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
 995                   in that same form, without special character encoding.
 996               
 997               42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
 998                   the CIMValue class.  Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
 999                   often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
1000                   Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
1001               
1002               43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function 
1003                   localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class 
1004                   to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the 
1005                   CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>. 
1006                   Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
1007               
1008               44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
1009                   to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
1010                   from EnumerateInstances.  The client and provider APIs need to
1011                   be updated to use this class.
1012               
1013               45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line 
1014 mike    1.51      source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing 
1015                   of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider 
1016                   functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function 
1017                   String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
1018               
1019               46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
1020                   the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
1021                   the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
1022                   Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
1023                   responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
1024                   supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
1025               
1026               47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
1027               
1028                     - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
1029                         to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
1030                     - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
1031                         CIMNamedInstance
1032                     - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
1033                     - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
1034                         CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
1035 mike    1.51  
1036                   Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
1037               
1038                   These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
1039                   API.  For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
1040                   differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
1041                   However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
1042                   functionality.
1043               
1044                   When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
1045               
1046                     - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1047                         they are required to respect.  Providers that can not process the
1048                         PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1049                         list is not null.  Clients can take advantage of this change by
1050                         issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1051                         properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1052                         the entire instance.
1053               
1054                     - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1055                         instances in the EnumerateInstances method.  Clients will receive
1056 mike    1.51            these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1057               
1058                     - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
1059                         PropertyList instead of an Array<String>.  This change allows
1060                         providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
1061               
1062                   Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
1063                   ModifyInstance correctly.
1064               
1065               48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
1066                   provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
1067                   ModifyInstance operations.  These changes were made to comply with
1068                   the DMTF specification.
1069               
1070                   The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
1071                   plans to do so.  Providers written to the original API will
1072                   continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
1073                   to take advantage of the features that have been added.
1074               
1075                   The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
1076               
1077 mike    1.51        - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1078                         they are required to respect.  Providers that can not process the
1079                         PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1080                         list is not null.  Clients can take advantage of this change by
1081                         issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1082                         properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1083                         the entire instance.
1084               
1085                     - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
1086                         which they are required to respect.  If IncludeQualifiers is
1087                         false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
1088                         be used to update the instance.
1089               
1090                     - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1091                         instances in the EnumerateInstances method.  Clients will receive
1092                         these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1093               
1094                   The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1095                   However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1096                   a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1097               
1098 mike    1.51  49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1099                   files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1100                   the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1101                   platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1102                   without the standard (std) namespace.
1103               
1104               50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1105                   properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1106                   repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1107               
1108                   Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1109                   default provider for instance (and association) operations.  The default
1110                   setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed.  To
1111                   disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1112                   following command before starting cimserver:
1113               
1114                       cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1115               
1116                   The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1117                   provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1118                   provider.  This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1119 mike    1.51      instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1120                   to "false".  The default value is "repository".  To register the
1121                   repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1122                   'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1123               
1124               51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1125                   pass to providers that act as services.  This handle provides
1126                   service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1127               
1128               52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1129                   the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1130                   PropertyList parameters.  Updated SetProperty in the repository
1131                   so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly.  The repository now
1132                   supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1133               
1134                   Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1135                   Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1136                   ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider.  Providers
1137                   written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1138                   ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1139                   operations.  Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1140 mike    1.51      work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1141               
1142               53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1143                   Security components for authentication and authorization. 
1144               
1145                   Authentication and User Management:
1146                   cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1147                   and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1148                   in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd 
1149                   generated password file. 
1150               
1151                   cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1152                   to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1153                   
1154                   User Manager and  User Manager Provider  components implement the user 
1155                   management and authorization functionality.   
1156               
1157               54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1158                   under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1159               
1160               55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1161 mike    1.51      which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1162                   It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1163               
1164               56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1165                   and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1166                   NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1167                 
1168               57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1169                   subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the 
1170                   CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler 
1171                   classes (from CIM_Events27.mof).  The service also takes appropriate action
1172                   in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider, 
1173                   or change in provider registration.  
1174               
1175               58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1176                   and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1177                   For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper 
1178                   in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1179               
1180               59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1181                   It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1182 mike    1.51      in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1183                   constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1184                   structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1185                   MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1186                   between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1187                   is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1188                   How to use it in a Server or Client:
1189                   1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1190                   2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1191                      SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1192                      without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
1193 mike    1.50  
1194 mike    1.51      The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1195                   cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1196

1229                  the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1230                  src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1231               
1232               5. (Nag Boranna - HP)  Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1233                  Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1234                  in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page

1236                  using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1237                  mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1238                  is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1239                  information on running the test script.
1240               
1241 mike    1.51  6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1242                  (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1243                  functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1244               
1245               7. (Bapu Patil - HP)  Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1246                  Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1247                  that
1248                  connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1249                  password.
1250                  Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1251                  This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1252                  build.
1253                  When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1254                  modified to integrate with the framework.

1307 karl    1.35  Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
1308 karl    1.16  
1309               1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day.  This includes code bothe
1310               for NT and Linux platforms.
1311 mike    1.26  
1312 karl    1.17  2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1313               5988.
1314               NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1315               the DMTF.
1316 mike    1.26  
1317 karl    1.17  3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1318               Fusion event.  THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1319               CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF.  Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1320               Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
1321 mike    1.26  
1322 bob     1.18  4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1323               and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}.  This is the first step in
1324               revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
1325 mike    1.26  
1326 bob     1.19  5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1327               Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1328               Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1329               files instead of generating your own for a particular platform.  This should
1330               prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1331               code.  The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
1332 bob     1.20  (grb)
1333 mike    1.26  
1334 bob     1.20  6.  Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1335               This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1336               to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
1337 mike    1.26  
1338 karl    1.21  7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
1339 mike    1.26  
1340 karl    1.25  8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1341               modifyClass,
1342 chip    1.22  createClass to protect caller's object.
1343 mike    1.26  
1344 karl    1.25  9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1345               directory. These
1346               interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1347               CIMProviderStub has
1348 chip    1.23  been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
1349 mike    1.26  
1350 sage    1.24  10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
1351 mike    1.26  
1352 karl    1.25  11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository.  To rebuild
1353               repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
1354 mike    1.26  
1355               12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
1356 mike    1.27      (MEB)
1357               
1358               13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1359                   Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1360                   Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1361                   Need to handle deleteInstance().
1362                   (MEB)
1363 mike    1.26  
1364 mday    1.28  14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1365               
1366 karl    1.30  15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1367               AssociationName
1368 karl    1.29  and ReferenceName functions.  This included extensive update to the HTML
1369               pages.
1370               
1371 karl    1.30  16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
1372 sage    1.31  
1373               17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1374               ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1375               Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1376               variables.
1377 mike    1.32  
1378               18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1379                   References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1380                   on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
1381 kumpf   1.34  
1382               19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1383                   changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1384                   buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1385                   change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1386                   lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1387                   and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1388                   these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
1389 karl    1.35  
1390               20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1391                   tests for stack and queue.

1467 karl    1.1   
1468               1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1469               qualifiers, methods.
1470               2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1471               methods.
1472               3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1473               qualifiers and to
1474               remove qualifiers.
1475               4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1476               compiler.  It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
1477 karl    1.2   the current compiler.  This version of the port produces an excessively large
1478               common module due to template bloat.  That problem will be fixed in a future
1479               change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1480               by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems.  The port has been tested
1481               with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
