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. 244
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::appendElement(). Moved CIM::print() methods to 254 XmlWriter::printElement(). 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::appendElement(). Moved 260 CIM::printMof() methods to MofWriter::printElement(). 261
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. 269
270 kumpf 1.138 45. (Nag Boranna - HP) 17 May 2002 - HP-Nag: Moved SSLContext class out of 271 TLS files, created SSLContextRep to hide members from the users of 272 SSLContext. Also included CertificateInfo in SSLContext files and 273 removed the CertificateInfo files, so that the client SDK can only 274 need to include SSLContext.h for the client apps to use. 275
276 kumpf 1.139 46. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 17 May 2002 - Fixed the CIMInstanceRep::resolve 277 method to return the correct class origin. Fixed SecurityPropertyOwner to 278 disallow passwordFilePath="". 279
280 kumpf 1.140 47. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 May 2002 - HP-Nag: Modified CIM Server and Client 281 API to lookup port number from services. CIM Server uses default port 282 number (5988 for HTTP or 5989 for HTTPS) if no port number is configured 283 and no port is specified in the configuration file. CIMClient's connectLocal() 284 method is modified to try and connect to HTTP port, if failed then try and 285 connect to HTTPS port. 286
287 kumpf 1.141 48. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 21 May 2002: Fixed a problem in repository related 288 to rollback failure. 289
290 karl 1.95 ======================================================================== 291
292 karl 1.93 Version 1.08 working towards 1.1 - Started 27 March 2002
293 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because 294 of problems with the CVS repository
295 karl 1.93
296 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
297 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08. 298
299 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass, 300 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.
301 karl 1.93 ========================================================================
302 karl 1.59 303 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002 304 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc. 305 TAG: VERSION_1_07 306 307 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file. 308
309 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
310 karl 1.59
311 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner 312 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository 313 location, Provider location and Consumer location. 314 The default location for these properties continue to be the same 315 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the 316 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to 317 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home. 318 319 For more information look in to the following files: 320 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h 321 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp 322 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h 323 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp 324 325 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
326 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only 327 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF 328 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL. 329 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when 330 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
331 karl 1.63
332 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
333 karl 1.62
334 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
335 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work. 336
337 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
338 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal() 339 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system 340 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use 341 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface. 342
343 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
344 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and 345 will be deleted. 346
347 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests 348 349 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
350 karl 1.66
351 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented 352 checks for privileged user when performing authorization. 353 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess. 354 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access 355 for remote clients.
356 karl 1.66
357 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic 358 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition 359 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag 360 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without 361 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows 362 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return 363 values. 364 365 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS: 366 367 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input 368 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type 369 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method 370 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input 371 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client 372 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema). 373 374 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client 375 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation 376 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters 377 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition. 378 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the 379 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider 380 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not 381 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type 382 specified in the method definition. 383 384 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS: 385 386 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are 387 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE 388 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type 389 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of 390 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the 391 correct type rather than as a String. 392 393 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the 394 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a 395 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type 396 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit 397 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return 398 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get, 399 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues. 400 401 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through 402 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other 403 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute. 404 405 SIDE EFFECTS: 406 407 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered 408 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of 409 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method 410 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've 411 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class. 412 413 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant 414 clean-up, which I completed. 415 416 SETPROPERTY CHANGES: 417 418 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by 419 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor 420 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the 421 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting 422 the specified value to that property's type. 423 424 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate 425 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this 426 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using 427 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty. 428 429 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type 430 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will 431 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty 432 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties 433 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with 434 a property list) rather than GetProperty. 435
436 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class. 437 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this 438 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue. 439 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray, 440 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue. 441 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML 442 encoding of parameter values. 443 444 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the 445 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped() 446 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from 447 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they 448 have defaulted to String type.
449 karl 1.70 450 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code. 451 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
452 karl 1.72
453 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept 454 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new 455 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server 456 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from 457 the server.
458 karl 1.72 459 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up 460 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6. 461
462 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager 463 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and 464 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances 465 operations. 466 467 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
468 karl 1.74 469 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the 470 definition of CIMFlavors.

473 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to 474 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the 475 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at 476 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there 477 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top 478 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message 479 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods. 480 481 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML 482 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the 483 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be 484 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to 485 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional 486 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class 487 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in 488 a single buffer. 489 490 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML 491 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also, 492 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the 493 various encoders and decoders, etc. 494 kumpf 1.75 495 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the 496 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate 497 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent 498 with what is encoded in the XML request itself. 499 500 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod, 501 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are 502 validated.
503 karl 1.76 504 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in 505 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the 506 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
507 karl 1.78
508 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction. 509 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using: 510 511 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor; 512 HTTPConnector* connector; 513 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor); 514 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional 515 516 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis); 517 518 With this change, the client application now looks like: 519 520 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional 521 522 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis); 523 524 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector 525 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a 526 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL 527 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient 528 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and 529 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector 530 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method 531 rather than in the constructor. 532 533 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this 534 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and 535 included in the Pegasus build.
536 kumpf 1.79
537 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field 538 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
539 kumpf 1.75
540 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT 541 include the source filename and line number in the exception message. 542 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the 543 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used 544 for that purpose. 545 546 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class: 547 548 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer. 549 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException 550 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the 551 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the 552 line number of the CIMException originator. 553 554 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException); 555 556 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class: 557 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as 558 input and writes the String to the trace file. 559 560 (ex.) 561 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call: 562 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed."); 563 564 or use the following new macro: 565 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed."); 566
567 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
568 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added 569 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in 570 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator. 571 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first 572 operator to be "OR"ed.
573 ramnath 1.81 574 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that 575 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances 576 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and 577 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file 578 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a 579 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef 580 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in 581 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
582 ramnath 1.80
583 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once 584 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could 585 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly 586 in the Windows service work thread. 587
588 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a 589 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof) 590 executable 591 592 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository 593 executable.
594 kumpf 1.84 595 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and 596 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of 597 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An 598 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into 599 an integer of the specified size. 600
601 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers 602 in XmlReader.cpp. 603
604 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic 605 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication 606 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified 607 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes. 608
609 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "\| ios::binary" 610 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
611 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
612 karl 1.88 613 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad 614 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before. 615
616 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation 617 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and 618 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the 619 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the 620 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control 621 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the 622 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically 623 linked into the server.
624 karl 1.88
625 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with 626 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider 627 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree. 628
629 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the 630 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control 631 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus 632 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the 633 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
634 karl 1.92 635 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to 636 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their 637 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc. 638
639 kumpf 1.91
640 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
641 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001 642 643 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch 644 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments 645 may temporarily be in side branches. 646 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
647 karl 1.53 648 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository 649 implementations will be kept to separate them from the 650 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile 651 which is the current file based repository. 652 653 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command 654 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER 655 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system 656 in the future.
657 karl 1.52
658 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder 659 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are 660 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER 661 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the 662 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a 663 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown. 664
665 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
666 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder 667 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create 668 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled. 669 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make 670 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher. 671
672 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
673 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running 674 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver 675 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient 676 program. 677
678 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription, 679 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed 680 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher. 681 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 682 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 683 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 684 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 685 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE 686 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE 687 688 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving 689 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from 690 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear. 691 692 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration 693 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered. 694 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE 695 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE 696 697 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication 698 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate 699 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a 700 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon. 701 702 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create 703 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService. 704 705 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

711 mike 1.36
712 karl 1.49 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 713 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress) 714
715 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating 716 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references). 717 718 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
719 mike 1.51 ======= 720 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be 721 seen as part of CGIclient class displays. 722 723 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version 724 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor 725 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the 726 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change 727 should not affect any current work. 728 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas 729 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still 730 loads the 2.5 schema. 731 732 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers 733 on XML output. 734 735 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem 736 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp, 737 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable 738 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple 739 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error. 740 mike 1.51 741 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove 742 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the 743 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files 744 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that 745 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config 746 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified 747 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI 748 to show user friendly error/status messages. 749 750 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI 751 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected). 752 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in 753 generating debug output. 754 755 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in 756 xml when it generates xml output. 757 758 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into 759 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default 760 repository implementation. 761 mike 1.51 762 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation. 763 764 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element. 765 766 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach. 767 768 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples. 769 770 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. 771 772 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules. 773 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder. 774 775 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete. 776 777 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. 778 779 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS. 780 781 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server 782 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with 783 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information. 784 785 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files 786 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML 787 input and output can be written in a trace file. 788 789 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support 790 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and 791 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !). 792 793 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and 794 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample 795 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the 796 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete 797 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and 798 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files 799 are modified to implement above messages. 800 801 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete 802 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication 803 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the 804 indication to consumer. This program needs 805 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof 806 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded 807 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test 808 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and 809 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as 810 below: 811 812 //==================================================================== 813 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP 814 //==================================================================== 815 [Description ( 816 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for " 817 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML " 818 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ] 819 820 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in 821 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading 822 a provider library. 823 824 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod 825 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as 826 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give 827 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed 828 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the 829 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod 830 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while 831 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of 832 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed 833 later). 834 835 Also added are two test programs: 836 837 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of 838 CIMParamValue class. 839 840 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to 841 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current 842 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value 843 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in 844 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality) 845 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client. 846 847 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of 848 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager 849 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication 850 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator 851 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests 852 and to verify the authentication. 853 854 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator. 855 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not 856 yet linked into the build. 857 858 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export 859 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses 860 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send 861 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall. 862 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the 863 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on 864 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully. 865 866 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to 867 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the 868 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name 869 construction (appending .sl or .so) from 870 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to 871 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns 872 provider file path name. 873 874 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication 875 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class 876 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap 877 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file. 878 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master 879 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism. 880 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to 881 implement specific trap delivery mechanism. 882 883 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to 884 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating 885 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the 886 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library. 887 mike 1.51 888 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer 889 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given 890 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface. 891 Changed the config file defaults for tracing. 892 893 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq 894 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files 895 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak, 896 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak, 897 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered 898 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now 899 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and 900 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files. 901 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak. 902 903 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow 904 commas (,) in the string values of key properties. 905 906 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6 907 908 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in 909 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for 910 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced 911 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required 912 in make files. 913 914 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25 915 because getting an error in 26 916 917 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys 918 whose types are references. These reference values must be 919 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE 920 tag structure. 921 922 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values. 923 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string 924 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs. 925 926 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and 927 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the 928 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required 929 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key 930 of String type and a key of reference type. 931 932 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to 933 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of 934 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for 935 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it 936 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up 937 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the 938 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal 939 transformations between CIMReferences and String values. 940 941 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value 942 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows 943 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or 944 reference type. 945 946 In this example: 947 948 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10" 949 950 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets 951 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R' 952 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is 953 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type, 954 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation. 955 956 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new 957 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a 958 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must 959 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave 960 correctly. 961 962 The files that have been modified to make this change are 963 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp. 964 965 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance 966 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will 967 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest 968 CIMOM version. 969 970 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance 971 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association 972 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and 973 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need 974 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class 975 definition to determine the key property types. 976 977 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components 978 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner 979 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with 980 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options. 981 982 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference 983 (instanceName). 984 985 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of 986 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages. 987 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all 988 relevant intrinsic methods. 989 990 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase 991 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp 992 mike 1.51 993 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following 994 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp, 995 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp, 996 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of 997 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files 998 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include 999 nsk platform links. 1000 1001 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue 1002 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior 1003 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters 1004 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b 1005 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the 1006 String value directly with no translation. (Note that 1007 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.) 1008 1009 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the 1010 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by 1011 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to 1012 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name 1013 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to 1014 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name 1015 in that same form, without special character encoding. 1016 1017 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to 1018 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(), 1019 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml(). 1020 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers. 1021 1022 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function 1023 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class 1024 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the 1025 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>. 1026 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml. 1027 1028 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class 1029 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values 1030 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to 1031 be updated to use this class. 1032 1033 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line 1034 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing 1035 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider 1036 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function 1037 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files. 1038 1039 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on 1040 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate 1041 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests. 1042 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send 1043 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation 1044 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism. 1045 1046 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes: 1047 1048 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance> 1049 to Array<CIMNamedInstance> 1050 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to 1051 CIMNamedInstance 1052 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance 1053 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the 1054 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String> 1055 mike 1.51 1056 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification. 1057 1058 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider 1059 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the 1060 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function. 1061 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added 1062 functionality. 1063 1064 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible: 1065 1066 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which 1067 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the 1068 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the 1069 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by 1070 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of 1071 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace 1072 the entire instance. 1073 1074 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with 1075 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive 1076 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates. 1077 1078 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the 1079 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows 1080 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list. 1081 1082 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in 1083 ModifyInstance correctly. 1084 1085 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance 1086 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and 1087 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with 1088 the DMTF specification. 1089 1090 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no 1091 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will 1092 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity 1093 to take advantage of the features that have been added. 1094 1095 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are: 1096 1097 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which 1098 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the 1099 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the 1100 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by 1101 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of 1102 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace 1103 the entire instance. 1104 1105 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance 1106 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is 1107 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not 1108 be used to update the instance. 1109 1110 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with 1111 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive 1112 these instance names, as the standard dictates. 1113 1114 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated. 1115 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw 1116 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception. 1117 1118 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform, 1119 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to 1120 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK 1121 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation 1122 without the standard (std) namespace. 1123 1124 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration 1125 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository: 1126 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName. 1127 1128 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the 1129 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default 1130 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To 1131 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the 1132 following command before starting cimserver: 1133 1134 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p 1135 1136 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what 1137 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a 1138 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve 1139 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set 1140 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the 1141 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a 1142 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition. 1143 1144 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to 1145 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides 1146 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures. 1147 1148 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in 1149 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and 1150 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository 1151 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now 1152 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance. 1153 1154 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and 1155 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and 1156 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers 1157 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new 1158 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty 1159 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only 1160 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation. 1161 1162 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the 1163 Security components for authentication and authorization. 1164 1165 Authentication and User Management: 1166 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal 1167 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored 1168 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd 1169 generated password file. 1170 1171 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting 1172 to add/remove/list user authorizations. 1173 1174 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user 1175 management and authorization functionality. 1176 1177 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory 1178 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF. 1179 1180 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider 1181 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider. 1182 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes. 1183 1184 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h 1185 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the 1186 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file. 1187 1188 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication 1189 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the 1190 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler 1191 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action 1192 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider, 1193 or change in provider registration. 1194 1195 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service 1196 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully. 1197 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper 1198 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf. 1199 1200 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only). 1201 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined 1202 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional 1203 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context 1204 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an 1205 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences 1206 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class 1207 is defined even in a non-ssl environment. 1208 How to use it in a Server or Client: 1209 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space 1210 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this 1211 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors 1212 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
1213 mike 1.50
1214 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and 1215 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag. 1216 1217 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1219 mike 1.51 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1220 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch 1221 Tagged as version_1_01 on 3 August 2001 (sorry should have been 1222 1.1 1223 1224 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver 1225 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler 1226 and ExportClient classes. the indication. 1227 1228 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to 1229 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively. 1230 1231 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and 1232 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation. 1233 1234 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading 1235 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined 1236 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler 1237 and SimpleThread. 1238 1239 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer 1240 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more 1241 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please 1242 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running 1243 the test script. 1244 1245 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please 1246 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf 1247 and 1248 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using 1249 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and 1250 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp. 1251 1252 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and 1253 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation 1254 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page 1255 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on 1256 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config 1257 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script 1258 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for 1259 information on running the test script. 1260 1261 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects 1262 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These 1263 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects. 1264 1265 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local 1266 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients 1267 that 1268 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a 1269 password. 1270 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design. 1271 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main 1272 build. 1273 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be 1274 modified to integrate with the framework.

1287 mike 1.36
1288 karl 1.38 1. (Mike Brasher) Added support for class association operations
1289 mike 1.37 (references(), associators(), referenceNames(), associatorNames()). 1290
1291 kumpf 1.39 2. (Jenny Yu - HP) Fixed problem in CGIClient.cpp to handle double quotes 1292 in the HTML URL reference for passing instance names. 1293
1294 mike 1.41 3. (Mike Brasher) Mass substitution to prepend CIM_ERR to CIM Status Codes. 1295 1296 4. (Mike Brasher) Added CIM Message types in preparation for qeueing. 1297
1298 kumpf 1.40 3. (Denise E. - HP) HP-UX specific changes to lslp-perl-linux,h and slp.h to 1299 allow slp to compile. 1300
1301 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages. 1302 1303 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps 1304 ids to queue pointers). 1305
1306 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler 1307 and Dispatcher. 1308
1309 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher 1310 and 1311 CIMProvider to support both interfaces. Added CIMOMHandle and sample
1312 chip 1.44 ResponseHandler for Provider2 interface.
1313 mike 1.45 1314 8. (Mike Brasher) - Replaced dispatcher with a queue-based dispatcher. 1315 1316 9. (Mike Brasher) - Retrofited CIMOMHandle to be queue-based. 1317
1318 mike 1.46 10. (Mike Brasher) - Changed CIMOMHandle to carry repository pointer. 1319
1320 mike 1.47 11. (Mike Brasher) - Ported to TRU64. 1321 1322 12. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed compiler error on Linux. 1323

1326 mike 1.26
1327 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
1328 karl 1.16 1329 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe 1330 for NT and Linux platforms.
1331 mike 1.26
1332 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to 1333 5988. 1334 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by 1335 the DMTF.
1336 mike 1.26
1337 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF 1338 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from 1339 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b). 1340 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
1341 mike 1.26
1342 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp 1343 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in 1344 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
1345 mike 1.26
1346 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified 1347 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp. 1348 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser 1349 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should 1350 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome 1351 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
1352 bob 1.20 (grb)
1353 mike 1.26
1354 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes. 1355 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler 1356 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
1357 mike 1.26
1358 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
1359 mike 1.26
1360 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance, 1361 modifyClass,
1362 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
1363 mike 1.26
1364 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2 1365 directory. These 1366 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations. 1367 CIMProviderStub has
1368 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
1369 mike 1.26
1370 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
1371 mike 1.26
1372 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild 1373 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
1374 mike 1.26 1375 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
1376 mike 1.27 (MEB) 1377 1378 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported). 1379 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still. 1380 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations). 1381 Need to handle deleteInstance(). 1382 (MEB)
1383 mike 1.26
1384 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD) 1385
1386 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install 1387 AssociationName
1388 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML 1389 pages. 1390
1391 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
1392 sage 1.31 1393 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed 1394 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB). 1395 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment 1396 variables.
1397 mike 1.32 1398 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(), 1399 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate 1400 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
1401 kumpf 1.34 1402 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support 1403 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries 1404 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest 1405 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific 1406 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile 1407 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of 1408 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
1409 karl 1.35 1410 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added 1411 tests for stack and queue.

1486 karl 1.3 21 May 2001 Version 0.97 - Tagged as version_0_97
1487 karl 1.1 1488 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties, 1489 qualifiers, methods. 1490 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier, 1491 methods. 1492 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of 1493 qualifiers and to 1494 remove qualifiers. 1495 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX 1496 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
1497 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large 1498 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future 1499 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate 1500 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested 1501 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
