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::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().
261
|
262 kumpf 1.144 43. (Nag Boranna - HP) 16 May 2002 - Implemented SSL handling in
|
263 kumpf 1.136 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 1.144 45. (Nag Boranna - HP) 17 May 2002 - Moved SSLContext class out of
|
271 kumpf 1.138 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 1.144 47. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 May 2002 - Modified CIM Server and Client
|
281 kumpf 1.140 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 sage 1.142 49. (MM) 23 May 2002 - Added ProviderAdapter support
291 The ProviderAdapterManager loads an additional Adapter library in
292 case of a non-default interfaceName. This Adapter library has to offer a
293 factory callback PegasusCreateProviderAdapter() in analogy to the
294 CIMBaseProvider - an example, the AdapterSkeleton, can be found in
295 src/Providers/generic/CMPIAdapter/
296
|
297 sage 1.143 50. (MM) 23 May 2002 - New AtomicInt implementation using pthread_spinlocks.
|
298 kumpf 1.144
299 51. (Nag Boranna - HP) 23 May 2002 - Added config properties
300 'enableHttpConnection' and 'enableHttpsConnection'. Renamed
301 'requireAuthentication' to 'enableAuthentication' and 'requireAuthorization'
|
302 kumpf 1.145 to 'enableNamespaceAuthorization'. Removed few ATTN's in Authentication code.
|
303 kumpf 1.144
|
304 kumpf 1.145 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 May 2002 - Reworked the Array template so that
305 the implementation is hidden from clients and providers. This was
306 accomplished by using explicit instantiation of the array template for
307 each array type that is supported in the client and provider APIs.
308 The array template implementation is still available for use within
309 the Pegasus core, allowing implicit instantiation of additional array
310 types used internally.
|
311 karl 1.146
312 53. KS 28 May 2002 - Added heiarchial subclass search of subclasses to
313 enumerateinstancenames and enumerateinstances. There is a problem
314 however with trashing of the requests messages so there is a
315 flag LIMIT_ENUM_TO_ONE_LEVEL in CIMOperationDispatcher.cpp that
316 causes it to go through all the motions except to request instances
317 only for the current level.
318
|
319 kumpf 1.147 54. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 28 May 2002 - Replaced getenv("PEGASUS_TRACE")
320 with Tracer calls. Fixed UserAuthProvider and ConfigSettingProvider to
321 check for user credentials. UserAuthProvider checks whether the user
|
322 kumpf 1.148 is a privileged user for all operations. ConfigSettingProvider checks
323 whether the user is a privileged user only for write operations.
|
324 sage 1.143
|
325 kumpf 1.149 55. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 30 May 2002 -
326 Removed the CIMNamedInstance and CIMObjectWithPath classes. The CIMObject
327 and CIMInstance classes now include a setPath (CIMObjectPath) method.
328 These changes will affect Clients and Providers. A call to the
329 CIMNamedInstance constructor with a CIMObjectPath and a CIMInstance should
330 be replaced with a call to the setPath () method on the CIMInstance,
331 passing the same CIMObjectPath. A call to the CIMNamedInstance
332 getInstance () method should be replaced with the CIMInstance, and a call
333 to the CIMNamedInstance getInstanceName () method should be replaced with a
334 call to the getPath () method on the CIMInstance. A call to the
335 CIMObjectWithPath constructor with a CIMObjectPath and a CIMObject, should
336 be replaced with a call the setPath () method on the CIMObject, passing the
337 same CIMObjectPath. A call to the CIMObjectWithPath getObject () method
338 should be replaced with the CIMObject, and a call to the CIMObjectWithPath
339 getReference () method should be replaced with a call to the CIMObject
340 getPath () method.
341
|
342 kumpf 1.150 55. (Jenny Yu - HP) 31 May 2002 - Implemented a cimserver_kill() method
343 to kill the CIMServer process if the CIM Server is still running after
344 the shutdown timeout has expired during shutdown. The CIMServer process
345 Id is saved in a file after CIMServer starts up. This file is removed
346 after CIMServer terminates normally. Only added code for the HPUX
347 platform.

367 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
368 karl 1.59
|
369 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
370 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
371 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
372 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
373 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
374 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
375 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
376
377 For more information look in to the following files:
378 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
379 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
380 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
381 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
382
383 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
384 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
385 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
386 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
387 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
388 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
389 karl 1.63
|
390 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
391 karl 1.62
|
392 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
393 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
394
|
395 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
396 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
397 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
398 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
399 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
400
|
401 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in

409 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
410 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
411 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
412 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
413 for remote clients.

415 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
416 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
417 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
418 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
419 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
420 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
421 values.
422
423 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
424
425 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
426 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
427 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
428 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
429 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
430 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
431
432 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
433 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
434 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
435 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
436 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
437 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
438 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
439 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
440 specified in the method definition.
441
442 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
443
444 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
445 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
446 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
447 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
448 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
449 correct type rather than as a String.
450
451 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
452 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
453 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
454 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
455 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
456 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
457 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
458
459 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
460 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
461 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
462
463 SIDE EFFECTS:
464
465 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
466 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
467 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
468 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
469 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
470
471 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
472 clean-up, which I completed.
473
474 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
475
476 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
477 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
478 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
479 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
480 the specified value to that property's type.
481
482 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
483 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
484 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
485 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
486
487 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
488 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
489 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
490 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
491 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
492 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
493
|
494 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
495 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
496 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
497 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
498 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
499 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
500 encoding of parameter values.
501
502 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
503 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
504 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
505 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
506 have defaulted to String type.

510 karl 1.72
|
511 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
512 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
513 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
514 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
515 the server.

520 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
521 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
522 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
523 operations.
524
525 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.

530 kumpf 1.68
|
531 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
532 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
533 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
534 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
535 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
536 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
537 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
538
539 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
540 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
541 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
542 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
543 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
544 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
545 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
546 a single buffer.
547
548 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
549 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
550 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
551 various encoders and decoders, etc.
552 kumpf 1.75
553 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
554 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
555 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
556 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
557
558 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
559 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
560 validated.

562 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
563 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
564 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.

565 karl 1.78
|
566 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
567 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
568
569 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
570 HTTPConnector* connector;
571 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
572 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
573
574 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
575
576 With this change, the client application now looks like:
577
578 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
579
580 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
581
582 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
583 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
584 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
585 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
586 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
587 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
588 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
589 rather than in the constructor.
590
591 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
592 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
593 included in the Pegasus build.

594 kumpf 1.79

595 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
596 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
597 kumpf 1.75
|
598 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
599 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
600 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
601 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
602 for that purpose.
603
604 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
605
606 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
607 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
608 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
609 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
610 line number of the CIMException originator.
611
612 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
613
614 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
615 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
616 input and writes the String to the trace file.
617
618 (ex.)
619 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
620 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
621
622 or use the following new macro:
623 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
624
|
625 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
626 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
627 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
628 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
629 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
630 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
631 ramnath 1.81
632 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
633 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
634 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
635 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
636 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
637 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
638 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
639 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
640 ramnath 1.80
|
641 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
642 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
643 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
644 in the Windows service work thread.
645
|
646 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
647 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
648 executable
649
650 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
651 executable.
|
652 kumpf 1.84
653 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
654 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
655 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
656 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
657 an integer of the specified size.
658
|
659 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
660 in XmlReader.cpp.
661
|
662 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
663 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
664 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
665 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
666
|
667 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
668 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
669 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
670 karl 1.88
671 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
672 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
673
|
674 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
675 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
676 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
677 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
678 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
679 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
680 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
681 linked into the server.
|
682 karl 1.88
|
683 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
684 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
685 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
686
|
687 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
688 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
689 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
690 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
691 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
692 karl 1.92
693 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
694 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
695 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.

|
699 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
700
701 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
702 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
703 may temporarily be in side branches.
704 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
705 karl 1.53
706 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
707 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
708 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
709 which is the current file based repository.
710
711 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
712 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
713 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
714 in the future.

715 karl 1.52
|
716 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
717 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
718 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
719 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
720 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
721 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
722
|
723 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
724 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
725 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
726 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
727 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
728 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
729
|
730 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
731 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
732 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
733 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
734 program.
735
|
736 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
737 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
738 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
739 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
740 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
741 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
742 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
743 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
744 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
745
746 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
747 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
748 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
749
750 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
751 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
752 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
753 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
754
755 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
756 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
757 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
758 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
759
760 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
761 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
762
763 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

773 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
774 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
775
776 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
777 mike 1.51 =======
778 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
779 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
780
781 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
782 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
783 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
784 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
785 should not affect any current work.
786 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
787 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
788 loads the 2.5 schema.
789
790 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
791 on XML output.
792
793 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
794 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
795 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
796 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
797 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
798 mike 1.51
799 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
800 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
801 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
802 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
803 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
804 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
805 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
806 to show user friendly error/status messages.
807
808 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
809 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
810 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
811 generating debug output.
812
813 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
814 xml when it generates xml output.
815
816 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
817 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
818 repository implementation.
819 mike 1.51
820 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
821
822 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
823
824 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
825
826 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
827
828 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.
829
830 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
831 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
832
833 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
834
835 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.
836
837 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
838
839 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
840 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
841 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
842
843 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
844 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
845 input and output can be written in a trace file.
846
847 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
848 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
849 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
850
851 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
852 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
853 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
854 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
855 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
856 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
857 are modified to implement above messages.
858
859 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
860 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
861 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
862 indication to consumer. This program needs
863 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
864 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
865 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
866 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
867 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
868 below:
869
870 //====================================================================
871 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
872 //====================================================================
873 [Description (
874 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
875 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
876 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
877
878 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
879 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
880 a provider library.
881
882 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
883 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
884 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
885 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
886 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
887 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
888 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
889 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
890 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
891 later).
892
893 Also added are two test programs:
894
895 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
896 CIMParamValue class.
897
898 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
899 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
900 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
901 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
902 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
903 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
904
905 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
906 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
907 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
908 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
909 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
910 and to verify the authentication.
911
912 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
913 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
914 yet linked into the build.
915
916 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
917 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
918 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
919 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
920 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
921 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
922 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
923
924 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
925 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
926 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
927 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
928 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
929 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
930 provider file path name.
931
932 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
933 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
934 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
935 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
936 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
937 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
938 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
939 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
940
941 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
942 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
943 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
944 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
945 mike 1.51
946 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
947 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
948 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
949 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
950
951 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
952 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
953 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
954 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
955 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
956 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
957 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
958 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
959 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
960
961 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
962 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
963
964 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
965
966 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
967 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
968 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
969 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
970 in make files.
971
972 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
973 because getting an error in 26
974
975 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
976 whose types are references. These reference values must be
977 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
978 tag structure.
979
980 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
981 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
982 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
983
984 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
985 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
986 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
987 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
988 of String type and a key of reference type.
989
990 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
991 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
992 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
993 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
994 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
995 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
996 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
997 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
998
999 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
1000 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
1001 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
1002 reference type.
1003
1004 In this example:
1005
1006 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
1007
1008 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
1009 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
1010 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
1011 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
1012 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
1013
1014 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
1015 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
1016 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
1017 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
1018 correctly.
1019
1020 The files that have been modified to make this change are
1021 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
1022
1023 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
1024 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
1025 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
1026 CIMOM version.
1027
1028 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
1029 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
1030 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
1031 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
1032 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
1033 definition to determine the key property types.
1034
1035 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
1036 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
1037 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
1038 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
1039
1040 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
1041 (instanceName).
1042
1043 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
1044 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
1045 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
1046 relevant intrinsic methods.
1047
1048 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
1049 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
1050 mike 1.51
1051 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
1052 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
1053 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
1054 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
1055 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
1056 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
1057 nsk platform links.
1058
1059 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
1060 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
1061 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
1062 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
1063 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
1064 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
1065 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
1066
1067 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
1068 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
1069 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
1070 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
1071 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
1072 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
1073 in that same form, without special character encoding.
1074
1075 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
1076 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
1077 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
1078 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
1079
1080 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
1081 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
1082 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
1083 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
1084 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
1085
1086 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
1087 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
1088 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
1089 be updated to use this class.
1090
1091 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
1092 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
1093 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
1094 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
1095 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
1096
1097 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
1098 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
1099 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
1100 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
1101 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
1102 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
1103
1104 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
1105
1106 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
1107 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
1108 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
1109 CIMNamedInstance
1110 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
1111 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
1112 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
1113 mike 1.51
1114 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
1115
1116 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
1117 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
1118 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
1119 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
1120 functionality.
1121
1122 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
1123
1124 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1125 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
1126 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1127 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
1128 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1129 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1130 the entire instance.
1131
1132 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1133 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
1134 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1135
1136 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
1137 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
1138 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
1139
1140 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
1141 ModifyInstance correctly.
1142
1143 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
1144 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
1145 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
1146 the DMTF specification.
1147
1148 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
1149 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
1150 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
1151 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
1152
1153 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
1154
1155 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1156 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
1157 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1158 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
1159 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1160 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1161 the entire instance.
1162
1163 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
1164 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
1165 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
1166 be used to update the instance.
1167
1168 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1169 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
1170 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1171
1172 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1173 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1174 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1175
1176 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1177 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1178 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1179 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1180 without the standard (std) namespace.
1181
1182 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1183 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1184 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1185
1186 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1187 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
1188 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
1189 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1190 following command before starting cimserver:
1191
1192 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1193
1194 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1195 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1196 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1197 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1198 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
1199 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1200 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1201
1202 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1203 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1204 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1205
1206 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1207 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1208 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1209 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1210 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1211
1212 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1213 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1214 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1215 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1216 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1217 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1218 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1219
1220 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1221 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1222
1223 Authentication and User Management:
1224 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1225 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1226 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1227 generated password file.
1228
1229 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1230 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1231
1232 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1233 management and authorization functionality.
1234
1235 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1236 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1237
1238 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1239 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1240 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1241
1242 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1243 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1244 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1245
1246 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1247 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1248 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1249 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1250 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1251 or change in provider registration.
1252
1253 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1254 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1255 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1256 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1257
1258 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1259 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1260 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1261 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1262 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1263 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1264 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1265 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1266 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1267 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1268 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1269 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1270 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1271 mike 1.50
|
1272 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1273 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1274
1275 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1278 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch
1279 Tagged as version_1_01 on 3 August 2001 (sorry should have been
1280 1.1
1281
1282 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1283 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1284 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1285
1286 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1287 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1288
1289 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1290 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1291
1292 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1293 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1294 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1295 and SimpleThread.
1296
1297 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1298 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1299 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1300 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1301 the test script.

1303 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1304 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1305 and
1306 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1307 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1308 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1309
1310 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1311 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1312 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1313 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1314 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1315 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1316 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1317 information on running the test script.
1318
1319 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1320 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1321 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1322
1323 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1324 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1325 that
1326 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1327 password.
1328 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1329 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1330 build.
1331 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1332 modified to integrate with the framework.

1385 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1386 karl 1.16
1387 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1388 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1389 mike 1.26
|
1390 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1391 5988.
1392 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1393 the DMTF.
|
1394 mike 1.26
|
1395 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1396 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1397 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1398 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1399 mike 1.26
|
1400 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1401 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1402 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1403 mike 1.26
|
1404 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1405 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1406 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1407 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1408 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1409 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1410 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1411 mike 1.26
|
1412 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1413 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1414 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1415 mike 1.26
|
1416 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1417 mike 1.26
|
1418 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1419 modifyClass,
|
1420 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1421 mike 1.26
|
1422 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1423 directory. These
1424 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1425 CIMProviderStub has
|
1426 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1427 mike 1.26
|
1428 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1429 mike 1.26
|
1430 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1431 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1432 mike 1.26
1433 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1434 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1435
1436 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1437 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1438 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1439 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1440 (MEB)
|
1441 mike 1.26
|
1442 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1443
|
1444 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1445 AssociationName
|
1446 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1447 pages.
1448
|
1449 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1450 sage 1.31
1451 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1452 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1453 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1454 variables.
|
1455 mike 1.32
1456 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1457 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1458 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1459 kumpf 1.34
1460 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1461 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1462 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1463 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1464 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1465 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1466 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1467 karl 1.35
1468 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1469 tests for stack and queue.

1533 karl 1.5
|
1534 karl 1.3 1. Add PEG_NOT_FOUND symbol to replace Uint32(-1) in any of the object
1535 find functions. Note: This symbol is defined in config.h. (ks).
1536
|
1537 karl 1.5 2. Port To HP UX. This required a number of changes particularly in the area

1544 karl 1.3 21 May 2001 Version 0.97 - Tagged as version_0_97
|
1545 karl 1.1
1546 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1547 qualifiers, methods.
1548 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1549 methods.
1550 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1551 qualifiers and to
1552 remove qualifiers.
1553 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1554 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1555 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1556 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1557 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1558 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1559 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
