10 karl 1.95 Version 1.09 - Started 5 April 2002
11 TAG: Version_1_09.
12
13 1. 5 April 2002 (KS) Update version to 1.09. TAG, and took snapshot.
14
|
15 kumpf 1.96 2. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Apr 2002 - Modified the CIMOperationResponseMessage
16 class and its subclasses to contain a CIMException instead of a
17 CIMStatusCode and String description. This allows extra information in
18 a CIMException, such as file name and line number, to be carried
19 internally throughout the system.
20
21 This change creates a single place where CIMExceptions are converted
22 to an error code and description to be written out in XML. This
23 single place controls the ability to tune what gets included in the
24 error description, as well as providing a convenient place to trace
25 errors that get returned to clients. In particular, client applications
26 currently see messages that contain redundant error code information,
27 such as:
28
29 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One or more parameter values passed
30 to the method were invalid: "CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One
31 or more parameter values passed to the method were invalid:
32 "Unrecognized parameter "Bogus"""
33
34 The CIMOperationResponseMessage change will allow the redundant
35 information to be eliminated from the messages.
|
36 karl 1.97
37 3. (KS) 7 April 2002- Minor really bad hack to systemwindows.cpp getcurrenttime
38 after roger fixed timevalue.
|
39 kumpf 1.96
|
40 kumpf 1.98 4. (DME) 7 April 2002 Added support for HPUX running on IA64 hardware.
41
|
42 kumpf 1.99 5. (DME) 7 April 2002 Update master result file for MOF Compiler CLI tests.
|
43 kumpf 1.100 Update master result file of wbemexec CLI tests.
|
44 kumpf 1.99
|
45 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
46 build on Tru64.
47
|
48 kumpf 1.102 7. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Apr 2002 - The RETURNVALUE and IRETURNVALUE elements
49 of the XML encoding of operation responses had been treated as mandatory.
50 The client response decoder has been updated to make those elements
51 optional for operations that do not require a return value. The server
52 response encoder has been updated not to include those elements when the
53 request does not include a return value.
54
|
55 kumpf 1.103 8. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 9 Apr 2002 - Updated the Instance, Association, and
56 Class provider interfaces to use CIMPropertyList instead of Array<String>
57 for the propertyList parameters. All providers that implement a method
58 with a propertyList parameter must be modified in accordance with this
59 change. All providers linked into the Pegasus build have been updated.
60
|
61 kumpf 1.105 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTP error message to be
|
62 kumpf 1.104 returned to the CIMClient when an HTTP error response is returned.
63 Added a method to parse the status line of an HTTP response.
|
64 kumpf 1.105
65 10. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Changed the MessageQueue::getQueueName()
66 method from virtual to non-virtual, and removed that method definition
67 from all the subclasses. To make sure that the MessageQueue class gets
68 the queue name value, the default value for the queue name parameter to
69 the MessageQueue constructor was removed. Constants were defined in
70 Constants.h for all the queue names currently used in Pegasus. The
71 places where those queue names were being used for lookup were also
72 changed to use the constants.
|
73 kumpf 1.104
|
74 kumpf 1.106 11. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTPError exception to
75 report non-200-OK HTTP responses back to client applications. Added
76 an HTTPErrorMessage class to hold information about an HTTP error
77 response. Added support in the CIMOperationResponseDecoder to
78 process HTTP error responses and turn them into HTTPErrorMessages.
79 Added support in CIMClient to process HTTPErrorMessages and throw an
80 HTTP error. This functionality required fundamental changes in the
81 way CIMClient processes messages. It can no longer search its queue
82 for a message of the expected type. Instead, is assumes that no
83 messages should be on its queue unless it has sent a request to the
84 encoder. In that case, it assumes that any message on its queue is
85 the response to that request.
86
|
87 kumpf 1.107 12. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Extended versioning strategy
88 to allow platform-specific version strings.
89
|
90 kumpf 1.108 13. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Renamed shared library for
91 ManagedSystem/OperatingSystem provider so that it would not
92 conflict with library name of generic/OperatingSystem provider.
93
|
94 kumpf 1.109 14. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Added compile flags _REENTRANT and RWSTD_MULTI_THREAD flags for platform_HPUX_PARISC_ACC.
95
|
96 kumpf 1.108
|
97 kumpf 1.110 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Feb 2002 - HP-Nag: Added PAM based user
98 authentication module. The implementation is available only on Unix
99 platforms. The PAM module is optional and it can be built by setting
100 the environment variable PEGASUS_PAM_AUTHENTICATION."
101
|
102 kumpf 1.111 16. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented static methods
103 Uint64 getDifference(CIMDateTime, CIMDateTime), to get the difference
104 between two CIMDateTimes and CIMDateTime getCurrentDateTime(), to return
105 the current date time as CIMDateTime in the CIMDateTime class. Also added
106 method Boolean isInterval(), to check if the CIMDateTime object is an
107 interval.
108
|
109 kumpf 1.112 17. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Improved Consumer interface with
110 indications. Now indications can be displayed using sample
111 DisplayConsumer. To test, create Handler with destination as
112 localhost:5988/logicalname. Create a file consumer_list.dat in your
113 PEGASUS_HOME directory and then ass entry as follows:
114 logicalname = DisplayConsumer
115 This will help ConsumerTable to load the DisplayConsumer to consume
116 the indication passed through ExportServer (CIMExportRequestDispathcer).
117
|
118 kumpf 1.113 18. (Yi Zhou - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented sending message of provider
119 registration notification to subscription service.
120
|
121 kumpf 1.114 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 16 Apr 2002 - Defined an exception hierarchy for
122 CIMClient API users. All exceptions thrown by CIMClient are now
123 subclasses of CIMClientException. The CIMClient methods are defined
124 as throwing CIMClientException, which will allow the actual exceptions
125 thrown to change without changing the method signatures. It also makes
126 it more clear to the client application which exceptions need to be
127 handled.
128
129 A new message type, ClientExceptionMessage has been defined as well.
130 This message is used to communicate client exceptions from the CIM
131 operation response decoder to the CIMClient. Previously, several
132 classes of exceptions were being dropped in the decoder. New
133 CIMClientException subclasses have been defined to model these
134 exceptions. These changes allow decoding exceptions to be passed
135 back to the client application. Examples are unparsable HTTP
136 responses, malformed XML, and mismatched CIM responses (message ID,
137 message type).
138
139 The CIM clients that are linked into the Pegasus build have been
140 updated to catch CIMClientException instead of CIMException.
|
141 karl 1.115
|
142 kumpf 1.118 20. (KS) 18 Apr 2002 -Incorporated tomof client into the build. Includes
|
143 karl 1.115 usage and help.
144 This program outputs mof or xml from repository either as a client
145 or direct to the repository.
146
|
147 kumpf 1.118 21. (KS) 18 Apr 2002 - Changed all FIXME, etc. in compiler to ATTN with
|
148 karl 1.115 priorities.
|
149 kumpf 1.114
|
150 kumpf 1.118 22. (MM) 18 Apr 2002 - Associator provider handling
|
151 sage 1.116
|
152 kumpf 1.118 23. (MM) 18 Apr 2002 - HiRes pegasus_gettimeofday() for Windows needed
|
153 sage 1.117 for performance statistics.
|
154 kumpf 1.118
155 24. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Apr 2002 - Removed the "match" code in the
156 String class which had a dependency on the TCL license. Where this
157 code was being used to match HTTP headers, I replaced the call to
158 String::matchNoCase() with specific logic to check for the namespace
159 in an HTTP extension header. For example, if the allowNamespacePrefix
160 argument is true and the search tag is "Tag", HTTPMessage::lookupHeader
161 will match "Tag" and "45-Tag", but not "abcTag". This behavior more
162 closely models the intent of the String match in this case and is
163 therefore more correct.
|
164 sage 1.117
|
165 kumpf 1.119 25. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 20 Apr 2002 - Added an instance of
166 PegasusVersion.h to each product component. This was done
167 to support component level version tracking.
168
|
169 sage 1.120 26. (MM) 22 Apr 2002 - Performance Measurement Implementation
170
|
171 kumpf 1.121 27. (Susan Campbell - HP) 22 Apr 2002 - Various enhancements and bug fixes
172 to the Managed System OS provider. Rolled in the Linux support from
173 the Linux-specific OS provider and added properties to the HP-UX and
174 Windows OS providers.
175
|
176 kumpf 1.122 28. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 24 Apr 2002 - Overhauled the configuration property
177 "unset" functionality. cimconfig now uses modifyInstance with a
178 property list to specify whether the current or planned value (or both)
179 are to be updated. It uses a "null" value to indicate that the value
180 should be unset (reset to default).
181
|
182 kumpf 1.123 29. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 24 Apr 2002 - Restructured the configuration
183 property owners to remove redundant code.
184
|
185 kumpf 1.124 30. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 26 Apr 2002 - Reimplement wbemexec to use a
186 new WbemExecClient interface based on HTTPConnection instead of the
187 obsolete Channel code. Also add SSL option to wbemexec.
188
|
189 kumpf 1.125 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Apr 2002 - Added copy constructors to the
190 CIMMessage subclasses.
191
|
192 kumpf 1.126 32. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 27 Apr 2002 - Fixed several defects
193 in MOF compiler associated with the handling the initialization
194 of array values.
|
195 karl 1.127
196 33. (KS) 30 April 2002 - Added Namespace Control Provider. Note that it is
197 not completely tested today and only enumeratenames is guaranteed.
198
|
199 kumpf 1.128 34. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 6 May 2002 - Reworked the String class. Fixed the
200 places where StrLen() was reading off the end of arrays. Removed the
201 Cat() functions. Moved Open(), OpenAppend(), and GetLine() functions
202 to the FileSystem module. Removed the EmptyStringArray() method.
203 Moved method implementations from header file to source file. Marked
204 the _CString class for internal use only.
205
|
206 kumpf 1.129 35. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 9 May 2002 - Updated the Logger to log to
207 syslog on the HP-UX platform.
208
209 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 9 May 2002 - Fixed the method
210 CIMDateTime::getCurrentDateTime() to return local time instead of UTC.
211 Updated the CIMDateTime::getDifference() method to compute the difference
212 between two local times. Also updated the getDifference to compute the
213 difference between two intervals.
214
|
215 mary 1.130 37. (Mary Hinton) 10 May 2002 - Fixed the problem in the new version of
216 pegasus_gettimeofday(struct timeval *tv)function for the Windows
217 platform. The new implementation was implemented for higher resolution
218 for performance statistics. However, it was causing an intermittent
219 hang in the ThreadPool test on the Windows platform.When (long int)
220 is changed to (__int64), the tv_usec variable of timeval struct has
221 the correct value.
222
|
223 kumpf 1.131 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 13 May 2002 - To eliminate the possibility of
224 collisions (and subsequent corruption) when different threads
225 concurrently update the ArrayRep reference count, I added a Mutex
226 to the ArrayRep structure. This Mutex gets locked in the inc()
227 and dec() methods that manage the reference count.
228
229 After adding the Mutex, the "mysterious" memory problems seemed to clear
230 up. This seems like a very good thing. However, note that the addition
231 of the Mutex adversely affects performance (nearly 2:1). I tried using
232 an AtomicInt for the reference count, but that seemed to yield even worse
233 performance on my system.
234
235 Anyone should feel free to optimize the performance of the locking in
236 the ArrayRep structure. Since I believe this locking is required for
237 proper operation, I've added the Mutex for all platforms. Note that I
238 had to comment out the assert statements in internal_dq.h to avoid a
239 circular header file dependency (Array.h->IPC.h->internal_dq.h->
240 Exception.h->String.h->Array.h).
241
|
242 kumpf 1.132 39. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 13 May 2002 - Removed operator int() methods from
243 all CIM* classes. These methods had been causing a number of difficult
244 to find defects, including the use of the wrong versions of the methods
245 in Memory.h by the Array template (leading to major memory leaks).
246
247 In general, it is dangerous to define a casting operator method that
248 loses so much information, because the compiler will apply the cast
249 at will in an effort to match types. I've replaced all instances of
250 the int cast operator with isNull() methods.
251
|
252 kumpf 1.133 40. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 May 2002 - HP-Nag: Added SSL Certificate verification
253 code in TLS.cpp, created a new class CertificateInfo to pass certificate
254 information to the client's call back function. Modified CIMServer.cpp and
255 the Command lines that are using SSLContext to pass a call back function.
256 Fixed few display messages in CIMConfigCommand.cpp to show meaningfule
257 messages when CIM server is not running.
258
|
259 kumpf 1.134 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 May 2002 - Moved CIM*::toXml() methods to
260 XmlWriter::append*Element(). Moved CIM*::print() methods to
261 XmlWriter::print*Element(). Putting this function in XmlWriter
262 instead of the CIM* classes keeps those internal methods out of
263 the published client and provider APIs.
264
|
265 kumpf 1.135 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 May 2002 - Moved CIM*::toMof() methods to
266 a new MofWriter class as MofWriter::append*Element(). Moved
267 CIM*::printMof() methods to MofWriter::print*Element().
268
|
269 kumpf 1.144 43. (Nag Boranna - HP) 16 May 2002 - Implemented SSL handling in
|
270 kumpf 1.136 CIMClient.cpp for local connection and modified the CLIs to not to pass
271 SSLContext to the client api.
272
|
273 kumpf 1.137 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 16 May 2002 - Reworked the Array template so that
274 each array has its own ArrayRep copy rather than Arrays sharing
275 ArrayReps and reference counting.
276
|
277 kumpf 1.144 45. (Nag Boranna - HP) 17 May 2002 - Moved SSLContext class out of
|
278 kumpf 1.138 TLS files, created SSLContextRep to hide members from the users of
279 SSLContext. Also included CertificateInfo in SSLContext files and
280 removed the CertificateInfo files, so that the client SDK can only
281 need to include SSLContext.h for the client apps to use.
282
|
283 kumpf 1.139 46. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 17 May 2002 - Fixed the CIMInstanceRep::resolve
284 method to return the correct class origin. Fixed SecurityPropertyOwner to
285 disallow passwordFilePath="".
286
|
287 kumpf 1.144 47. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 May 2002 - Modified CIM Server and Client
|
288 kumpf 1.140 API to lookup port number from services. CIM Server uses default port
289 number (5988 for HTTP or 5989 for HTTPS) if no port number is configured
290 and no port is specified in the configuration file. CIMClient's connectLocal()
291 method is modified to try and connect to HTTP port, if failed then try and
292 connect to HTTPS port.
293
|
294 kumpf 1.141 48. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 21 May 2002: Fixed a problem in repository related
295 to rollback failure.
296
|
297 sage 1.142 49. (MM) 23 May 2002 - Added ProviderAdapter support
298 The ProviderAdapterManager loads an additional Adapter library in
299 case of a non-default interfaceName. This Adapter library has to offer a
300 factory callback PegasusCreateProviderAdapter() in analogy to the
301 CIMBaseProvider - an example, the AdapterSkeleton, can be found in
302 src/Providers/generic/CMPIAdapter/
303
|
304 sage 1.143 50. (MM) 23 May 2002 - New AtomicInt implementation using pthread_spinlocks.
|
305 kumpf 1.144
306 51. (Nag Boranna - HP) 23 May 2002 - Added config properties
307 'enableHttpConnection' and 'enableHttpsConnection'. Renamed
308 'requireAuthentication' to 'enableAuthentication' and 'requireAuthorization'
|
309 kumpf 1.145 to 'enableNamespaceAuthorization'. Removed few ATTN's in Authentication code.
|
310 kumpf 1.144
|
311 kumpf 1.145 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 May 2002 - Reworked the Array template so that
312 the implementation is hidden from clients and providers. This was
313 accomplished by using explicit instantiation of the array template for
314 each array type that is supported in the client and provider APIs.
315 The array template implementation is still available for use within
316 the Pegasus core, allowing implicit instantiation of additional array
317 types used internally.
|
318 karl 1.146
319 53. KS 28 May 2002 - Added heiarchial subclass search of subclasses to
320 enumerateinstancenames and enumerateinstances. There is a problem
321 however with trashing of the requests messages so there is a
322 flag LIMIT_ENUM_TO_ONE_LEVEL in CIMOperationDispatcher.cpp that
323 causes it to go through all the motions except to request instances
324 only for the current level.
325
|
326 kumpf 1.147 54. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 28 May 2002 - Replaced getenv("PEGASUS_TRACE")
327 with Tracer calls. Fixed UserAuthProvider and ConfigSettingProvider to
328 check for user credentials. UserAuthProvider checks whether the user
|
329 kumpf 1.148 is a privileged user for all operations. ConfigSettingProvider checks
330 whether the user is a privileged user only for write operations.
|
331 sage 1.143
|
332 kumpf 1.149 55. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 30 May 2002 -
333 Removed the CIMNamedInstance and CIMObjectWithPath classes. The CIMObject
334 and CIMInstance classes now include a setPath (CIMObjectPath) method.
335 These changes will affect Clients and Providers. A call to the
336 CIMNamedInstance constructor with a CIMObjectPath and a CIMInstance should
337 be replaced with a call to the setPath () method on the CIMInstance,
338 passing the same CIMObjectPath. A call to the CIMNamedInstance
339 getInstance () method should be replaced with the CIMInstance, and a call
340 to the CIMNamedInstance getInstanceName () method should be replaced with a
341 call to the getPath () method on the CIMInstance. A call to the
342 CIMObjectWithPath constructor with a CIMObjectPath and a CIMObject, should
343 be replaced with a call the setPath () method on the CIMObject, passing the
344 same CIMObjectPath. A call to the CIMObjectWithPath getObject () method
345 should be replaced with the CIMObject, and a call to the CIMObjectWithPath
346 getReference () method should be replaced with a call to the CIMObject
347 getPath () method.
348
|
349 kumpf 1.151 56. (Jenny Yu - HP) 31 May 2002 - Implemented a cimserver_kill() method
|
350 kumpf 1.150 to kill the CIMServer process if the CIM Server is still running after
351 the shutdown timeout has expired during shutdown. The CIMServer process
352 Id is saved in a file after CIMServer starts up. This file is removed
353 after CIMServer terminates normally. Only added code for the HPUX
354 platform.
|
355 kumpf 1.151
356 57. (Jenny Yu - HP) 03 Jun 2002 - Removed all cimserver command line options
357 except for: -v (version), -h (help), -D (home), -s (shutdown), and
358 -install and -remove (for Windows only). All other options can be set
359 using the <configProperty=value> command line syntax.

373 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
374 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
375 TAG: VERSION_1_07
376
377 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.
378
|
379 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
380 karl 1.59
|
381 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
382 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
383 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
384 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
385 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
386 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
387 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
388
389 For more information look in to the following files:
390 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
391 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
392 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
393 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
394
395 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
396 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
397 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
398 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
399 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
400 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
401 karl 1.63
|
402 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
403 karl 1.62
|
404 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|

407 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
408 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
409 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
410 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
411 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
412
|
413 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
414 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
415 will be deleted.
416
|
417 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
418
419 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests

420 karl 1.66
|
421 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
422 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
423 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
424 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
425 for remote clients.

426 karl 1.66
|
427 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
428 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
429 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
430 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
431 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
432 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
433 values.
434
435 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
436
437 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
438 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
439 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
440 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
441 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
442 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
443
444 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
445 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
446 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
447 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
448 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
449 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
450 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
451 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
452 specified in the method definition.
453
454 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
455
456 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
457 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
458 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
459 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
460 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
461 correct type rather than as a String.
462
463 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
464 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
465 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
466 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
467 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
468 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
469 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
470
471 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
472 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
473 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
474
475 SIDE EFFECTS:
476
477 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
478 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
479 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
480 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
481 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
482
483 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
484 clean-up, which I completed.
485
486 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
487
488 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
489 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
490 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
491 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
492 the specified value to that property's type.
493
494 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
495 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
496 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
497 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
498
499 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
500 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
501 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
502 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
503 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
504 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
505
|
506 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
507 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
508 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
509 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
510 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
511 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
512 encoding of parameter values.
513
514 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
515 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
516 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
517 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
518 have defaulted to String type.

520 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
521 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
|
522 karl 1.72
|
523 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
524 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
525 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
526 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
527 the server.

528 karl 1.72
529 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
530 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
531
|
532 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
533 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
534 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
535 operations.
536
537 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
538 karl 1.74
539 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
540 definition of CIMFlavors.

542 kumpf 1.68
|
543 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
544 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
545 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
546 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
547 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
548 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
549 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
550
551 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
552 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
553 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
554 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
555 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
556 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
557 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
558 a single buffer.
559
560 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
561 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
562 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
563 various encoders and decoders, etc.
564 kumpf 1.75
565 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
566 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
567 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
568 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
569
570 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
571 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
572 validated.
|
573 karl 1.76
574 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
575 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
576 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
|
577 karl 1.78
|
578 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
579 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
580
581 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
582 HTTPConnector* connector;
583 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
584 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
585
586 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
587
588 With this change, the client application now looks like:
589
590 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
591
592 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
593
594 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
595 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
596 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
597 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
598 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
599 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
600 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
601 rather than in the constructor.
602
603 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
604 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
605 included in the Pegasus build.
|
606 kumpf 1.79
|
607 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
608 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
609 kumpf 1.75
|
610 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
611 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
612 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
613 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
614 for that purpose.
615
616 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
617
618 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
619 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
620 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
621 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
622 line number of the CIMException originator.
623
624 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
625
626 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
627 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
628 input and writes the String to the trace file.
629
630 (ex.)
631 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
632 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
633
634 or use the following new macro:
635 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
636
|
637 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
638 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
639 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
640 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
641 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
642 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
643 ramnath 1.81
644 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
645 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
646 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
647 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
648 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
649 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
650 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
651 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
652 ramnath 1.80
|
653 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
654 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
655 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
656 in the Windows service work thread.
657
|
658 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
659 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
660 executable
661
662 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
663 executable.
|
664 kumpf 1.84
665 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
666 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
667 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
668 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
669 an integer of the specified size.
670
|
671 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
672 in XmlReader.cpp.
673
|
674 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
675 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
676 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
677 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
678
|
679 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
680 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
681 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
682 karl 1.88
683 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
684 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
685
|
686 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
687 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
688 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
689 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
690 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
691 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
692 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
693 linked into the server.
|
694 karl 1.88
|
695 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
696 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
697 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
698
|
699 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
700 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
701 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
702 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
703 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
704 karl 1.92
705 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
706 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
707 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.

710 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
711 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
712
713 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
714 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
715 may temporarily be in side branches.
716 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
717 karl 1.53
718 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
719 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
720 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
721 which is the current file based repository.
722
723 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
724 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
725 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
726 in the future.
|
727 karl 1.52
|
728 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
729 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
730 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
731 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
732 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
733 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
734
|
735 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
736 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
737 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
738 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
739 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
740 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
741
|
742 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
743 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
744 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
745 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
746 program.
747
|
748 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
749 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
750 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
751 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
752 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
753 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
754 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
755 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
756 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
757
758 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
759 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
760 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
761
762 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
763 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
764 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
765 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
766
767 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
768 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
769 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
770 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
771
772 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
773 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
774
775 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

785 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
786 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
787
788 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
789 mike 1.51 =======
790 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
791 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
792
793 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
794 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
795 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
796 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
797 should not affect any current work.
798 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
799 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
800 loads the 2.5 schema.
801
802 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
803 on XML output.
804
805 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
806 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
807 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
808 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
809 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
810 mike 1.51
811 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
812 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
813 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
814 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
815 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
816 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
817 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
818 to show user friendly error/status messages.
819
820 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
821 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
822 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
823 generating debug output.
824
825 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
826 xml when it generates xml output.
827
828 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
829 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
830 repository implementation.
831 mike 1.51
832 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
833
834 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
835
836 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
837
838 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
839
840 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.
841
842 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
843 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
844
845 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
846
847 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.
848
849 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
850
851 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
852 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
853 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
854
855 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
856 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
857 input and output can be written in a trace file.
858
859 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
860 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
861 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
862
863 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
864 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
865 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
866 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
867 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
868 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
869 are modified to implement above messages.
870
871 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
872 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
873 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
874 indication to consumer. This program needs
875 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
876 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
877 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
878 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
879 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
880 below:
881
882 //====================================================================
883 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
884 //====================================================================
885 [Description (
886 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
887 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
888 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
889
890 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
891 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
892 a provider library.
893
894 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
895 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
896 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
897 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
898 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
899 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
900 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
901 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
902 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
903 later).
904
905 Also added are two test programs:
906
907 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
908 CIMParamValue class.
909
910 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
911 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
912 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
913 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
914 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
915 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
916
917 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
918 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
919 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
920 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
921 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
922 and to verify the authentication.
923
924 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
925 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
926 yet linked into the build.
927
928 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
929 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
930 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
931 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
932 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
933 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
934 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
935
936 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
937 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
938 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
939 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
940 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
941 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
942 provider file path name.
943
944 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
945 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
946 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
947 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
948 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
949 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
950 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
951 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
952
953 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
954 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
955 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
956 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
957 mike 1.51
958 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
959 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
960 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
961 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
962
963 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
964 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
965 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
966 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
967 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
968 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
969 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
970 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
971 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
972
973 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
974 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
975
976 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
977
978 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
979 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
980 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
981 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
982 in make files.
983
984 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
985 because getting an error in 26
986
987 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
988 whose types are references. These reference values must be
989 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
990 tag structure.
991
992 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
993 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
994 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
995
996 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
997 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
998 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
999 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
1000 of String type and a key of reference type.
1001
1002 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
1003 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
1004 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
1005 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
1006 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
1007 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
1008 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
1009 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
1010
1011 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
1012 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
1013 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
1014 reference type.
1015
1016 In this example:
1017
1018 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
1019
1020 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
1021 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
1022 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
1023 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
1024 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
1025
1026 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
1027 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
1028 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
1029 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
1030 correctly.
1031
1032 The files that have been modified to make this change are
1033 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
1034
1035 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
1036 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
1037 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
1038 CIMOM version.
1039
1040 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
1041 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
1042 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
1043 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
1044 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
1045 definition to determine the key property types.
1046
1047 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
1048 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
1049 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
1050 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
1051
1052 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
1053 (instanceName).
1054
1055 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
1056 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
1057 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
1058 relevant intrinsic methods.
1059
1060 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
1061 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
1062 mike 1.51
1063 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
1064 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
1065 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
1066 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
1067 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
1068 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
1069 nsk platform links.
1070
1071 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
1072 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
1073 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
1074 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
1075 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
1076 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
1077 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
1078
1079 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
1080 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
1081 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
1082 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
1083 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
1084 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
1085 in that same form, without special character encoding.
1086
1087 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
1088 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
1089 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
1090 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
1091
1092 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
1093 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
1094 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
1095 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
1096 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
1097
1098 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
1099 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
1100 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
1101 be updated to use this class.
1102
1103 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
1104 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
1105 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
1106 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
1107 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
1108
1109 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
1110 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
1111 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
1112 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
1113 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
1114 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
1115
1116 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
1117
1118 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
1119 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
1120 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
1121 CIMNamedInstance
1122 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
1123 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
1124 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
1125 mike 1.51
1126 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
1127
1128 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
1129 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
1130 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
1131 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
1132 functionality.
1133
1134 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
1135
1136 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1137 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
1138 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1139 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
1140 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1141 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1142 the entire instance.
1143
1144 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1145 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
1146 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1147
1148 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
1149 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
1150 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
1151
1152 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
1153 ModifyInstance correctly.
1154
1155 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
1156 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
1157 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
1158 the DMTF specification.
1159
1160 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
1161 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
1162 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
1163 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
1164
1165 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
1166
1167 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1168 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
1169 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1170 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
1171 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1172 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1173 the entire instance.
1174
1175 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
1176 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
1177 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
1178 be used to update the instance.
1179
1180 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1181 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
1182 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1183
1184 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1185 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1186 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1187
1188 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1189 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1190 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1191 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1192 without the standard (std) namespace.
1193
1194 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1195 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1196 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1197
1198 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1199 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
1200 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
1201 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1202 following command before starting cimserver:
1203
1204 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1205
1206 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1207 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1208 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1209 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1210 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
1211 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1212 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1213
1214 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1215 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1216 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1217
1218 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1219 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1220 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1221 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1222 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1223
1224 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1225 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1226 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1227 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1228 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1229 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1230 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1231
1232 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1233 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1234
1235 Authentication and User Management:
1236 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1237 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1238 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1239 generated password file.
1240
1241 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1242 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1243
1244 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1245 management and authorization functionality.
1246
1247 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1248 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1249
1250 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1251 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1252 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1253
1254 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1255 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1256 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1257
1258 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1259 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1260 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1261 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1262 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1263 or change in provider registration.
1264
1265 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1266 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1267 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1268 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1269
1270 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1271 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1272 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1273 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1274 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1275 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1276 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1277 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1278 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1279 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1280 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1281 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1282 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1283 mike 1.50
|
1284 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1285 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1286
1287 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1294 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1295 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1296 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1297
1298 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1299 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.

1301 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1302 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1303
1304 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1305 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1306 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1307 and SimpleThread.
1308
1309 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1310 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1311 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1312 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1313 the test script.
1314
1315 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1316 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1317 and
1318 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1319 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1320 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1321
1322 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1323 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1324 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1325 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1326 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1327 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1328 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1329 information on running the test script.
1330
1331 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1332 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1333 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1334
1335 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1336 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1337 that
1338 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1339 password.
1340 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1341 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1342 build.
1343 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1344 modified to integrate with the framework.

1372
1373 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1374 ids to queue pointers).
1375

1397 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1398 karl 1.16
1399 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1400 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1401 mike 1.26
|
1402 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1403 5988.
1404 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1405 the DMTF.
|
1406 mike 1.26
|
1407 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1408 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1409 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1410 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1411 mike 1.26
|
1412 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1413 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1414 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1415 mike 1.26
|
1416 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1417 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1418 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1419 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1420 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1421 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1422 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1423 mike 1.26
|
1424 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1425 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1426 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1427 mike 1.26
|
1428 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1429 mike 1.26
|
1430 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1431 modifyClass,
|
1432 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1433 mike 1.26
|
1434 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1435 directory. These
1436 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1437 CIMProviderStub has
|
1438 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1439 mike 1.26
|
1440 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1441 mike 1.26
|
1442 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1443 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1444 mike 1.26
1445 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1446 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1447
1448 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1449 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1450 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1451 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1452 (MEB)
|
1453 mike 1.26
|
1454 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1455
|
1456 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1457 AssociationName
|
1458 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1459 pages.
1460
|
1461 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1462 sage 1.31
1463 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1464 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1465 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1466 variables.
|
1467 mike 1.32
1468 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1469 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1470 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1471 kumpf 1.34
1472 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1473 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1474 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1475 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1476 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1477 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1478 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1479 karl 1.35
1480 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1481 tests for stack and queue.

1532 3. Change CIM Server to use Trace (-t) flag. This also changed
1533 Handler.h to work off of flag.
1534 4. Minor corrections to __Namespace Provider.
1535 5. Extend tests for Formatter, String, and other modules.
1536 6. Correct errors in documentation.

1545 karl 1.5
|
1546 karl 1.3 1. Add PEG_NOT_FOUND symbol to replace Uint32(-1) in any of the object
1547 find functions. Note: This symbol is defined in config.h. (ks).
1548
|
1549 karl 1.5 2. Port To HP UX. This required a number of changes particularly in the area

1556 karl 1.3 21 May 2001 Version 0.97 - Tagged as version_0_97
|
1557 karl 1.1
1558 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1559 qualifiers, methods.
1560 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1561 methods.
1562 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1563 qualifiers and to
1564 remove qualifiers.
1565 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1566 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1567 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1568 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1569 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1570 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1571 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
