11 karl 1.152 -----------------------------------------------------------------
|
12 karl 1.95 Version 1.09 - Started 5 April 2002
13 TAG: Version_1_09.
14
15 1. 5 April 2002 (KS) Update version to 1.09. TAG, and took snapshot.
16
|
17 kumpf 1.96 2. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Apr 2002 - Modified the CIMOperationResponseMessage
18 class and its subclasses to contain a CIMException instead of a
19 CIMStatusCode and String description. This allows extra information in
20 a CIMException, such as file name and line number, to be carried
21 internally throughout the system.
22
23 This change creates a single place where CIMExceptions are converted
24 to an error code and description to be written out in XML. This
25 single place controls the ability to tune what gets included in the
26 error description, as well as providing a convenient place to trace
27 errors that get returned to clients. In particular, client applications
28 currently see messages that contain redundant error code information,
29 such as:
30
31 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One or more parameter values passed
32 to the method were invalid: "CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One
33 or more parameter values passed to the method were invalid:
34 "Unrecognized parameter "Bogus"""
35
36 The CIMOperationResponseMessage change will allow the redundant
37 information to be eliminated from the messages.
|
38 karl 1.97
39 3. (KS) 7 April 2002- Minor really bad hack to systemwindows.cpp getcurrenttime
40 after roger fixed timevalue.
|
41 kumpf 1.96
|
42 kumpf 1.98 4. (DME) 7 April 2002 Added support for HPUX running on IA64 hardware.
43
|
44 kumpf 1.99 5. (DME) 7 April 2002 Update master result file for MOF Compiler CLI tests.
|
45 kumpf 1.100 Update master result file of wbemexec CLI tests.
|
46 kumpf 1.99
|
47 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
48 build on Tru64.
49
|
50 kumpf 1.102 7. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Apr 2002 - The RETURNVALUE and IRETURNVALUE elements
51 of the XML encoding of operation responses had been treated as mandatory.
52 The client response decoder has been updated to make those elements
53 optional for operations that do not require a return value. The server
54 response encoder has been updated not to include those elements when the
55 request does not include a return value.
56
|
57 kumpf 1.103 8. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 9 Apr 2002 - Updated the Instance, Association, and
58 Class provider interfaces to use CIMPropertyList instead of Array<String>
59 for the propertyList parameters. All providers that implement a method
60 with a propertyList parameter must be modified in accordance with this
61 change. All providers linked into the Pegasus build have been updated.
62
|
63 kumpf 1.105 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTP error message to be
|
64 kumpf 1.104 returned to the CIMClient when an HTTP error response is returned.
65 Added a method to parse the status line of an HTTP response.
|
66 kumpf 1.105
67 10. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 11 Apr 2002 - Changed the MessageQueue::getQueueName()
68 method from virtual to non-virtual, and removed that method definition
69 from all the subclasses. To make sure that the MessageQueue class gets
70 the queue name value, the default value for the queue name parameter to
71 the MessageQueue constructor was removed. Constants were defined in
72 Constants.h for all the queue names currently used in Pegasus. The
73 places where those queue names were being used for lookup were also
74 changed to use the constants.
|
75 kumpf 1.104
|
76 kumpf 1.106 11. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Defined an HTTPError exception to
77 report non-200-OK HTTP responses back to client applications. Added
78 an HTTPErrorMessage class to hold information about an HTTP error
79 response. Added support in the CIMOperationResponseDecoder to
80 process HTTP error responses and turn them into HTTPErrorMessages.
81 Added support in CIMClient to process HTTPErrorMessages and throw an
82 HTTP error. This functionality required fundamental changes in the
83 way CIMClient processes messages. It can no longer search its queue
84 for a message of the expected type. Instead, is assumes that no
85 messages should be on its queue unless it has sent a request to the
86 encoder. In that case, it assumes that any message on its queue is
87 the response to that request.
88
|
89 kumpf 1.107 12. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 12 Apr 2002 - Extended versioning strategy
90 to allow platform-specific version strings.
91
|
92 kumpf 1.108 13. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Renamed shared library for
93 ManagedSystem/OperatingSystem provider so that it would not
94 conflict with library name of generic/OperatingSystem provider.
95
|
96 kumpf 1.109 14. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 14 Apr 2002 - Added compile flags _REENTRANT and RWSTD_MULTI_THREAD flags for platform_HPUX_PARISC_ACC.
97
|
98 kumpf 1.108
|
99 kumpf 1.110 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Feb 2002 - HP-Nag: Added PAM based user
100 authentication module. The implementation is available only on Unix
101 platforms. The PAM module is optional and it can be built by setting
102 the environment variable PEGASUS_PAM_AUTHENTICATION."
103
|
104 kumpf 1.111 16. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented static methods
105 Uint64 getDifference(CIMDateTime, CIMDateTime), to get the difference
106 between two CIMDateTimes and CIMDateTime getCurrentDateTime(), to return
107 the current date time as CIMDateTime in the CIMDateTime class. Also added
108 method Boolean isInterval(), to check if the CIMDateTime object is an
109 interval.
110
|
111 kumpf 1.112 17. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Improved Consumer interface with
112 indications. Now indications can be displayed using sample
113 DisplayConsumer. To test, create Handler with destination as
114 localhost:5988/logicalname. Create a file consumer_list.dat in your
115 PEGASUS_HOME directory and then ass entry as follows:
116 logicalname = DisplayConsumer
117 This will help ConsumerTable to load the DisplayConsumer to consume
118 the indication passed through ExportServer (CIMExportRequestDispathcer).
119
|
120 kumpf 1.113 18. (Yi Zhou - HP) 15 Apr 2002 - Implemented sending message of provider
121 registration notification to subscription service.
122
|
123 kumpf 1.114 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 16 Apr 2002 - Defined an exception hierarchy for
124 CIMClient API users. All exceptions thrown by CIMClient are now
125 subclasses of CIMClientException. The CIMClient methods are defined
126 as throwing CIMClientException, which will allow the actual exceptions
127 thrown to change without changing the method signatures. It also makes
128 it more clear to the client application which exceptions need to be
129 handled.
130
131 A new message type, ClientExceptionMessage has been defined as well.
132 This message is used to communicate client exceptions from the CIM
133 operation response decoder to the CIMClient. Previously, several
134 classes of exceptions were being dropped in the decoder. New
135 CIMClientException subclasses have been defined to model these
136 exceptions. These changes allow decoding exceptions to be passed
137 back to the client application. Examples are unparsable HTTP
138 responses, malformed XML, and mismatched CIM responses (message ID,
139 message type).
140
141 The CIM clients that are linked into the Pegasus build have been
142 updated to catch CIMClientException instead of CIMException.
|
143 karl 1.115
|
144 kumpf 1.118 20. (KS) 18 Apr 2002 -Incorporated tomof client into the build. Includes
|
145 karl 1.115 usage and help.
146 This program outputs mof or xml from repository either as a client
147 or direct to the repository.
148
|
149 kumpf 1.118 21. (KS) 18 Apr 2002 - Changed all FIXME, etc. in compiler to ATTN with
|
150 karl 1.115 priorities.
|
151 kumpf 1.114
|
152 kumpf 1.118 22. (MM) 18 Apr 2002 - Associator provider handling
|
153 sage 1.116
|
154 kumpf 1.118 23. (MM) 18 Apr 2002 - HiRes pegasus_gettimeofday() for Windows needed
|
155 sage 1.117 for performance statistics.
|
156 kumpf 1.118
157 24. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Apr 2002 - Removed the "match" code in the
158 String class which had a dependency on the TCL license. Where this
159 code was being used to match HTTP headers, I replaced the call to
160 String::matchNoCase() with specific logic to check for the namespace
161 in an HTTP extension header. For example, if the allowNamespacePrefix
162 argument is true and the search tag is "Tag", HTTPMessage::lookupHeader
163 will match "Tag" and "45-Tag", but not "abcTag". This behavior more
164 closely models the intent of the String match in this case and is
165 therefore more correct.
|
166 sage 1.117
|
167 kumpf 1.119 25. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 20 Apr 2002 - Added an instance of
168 PegasusVersion.h to each product component. This was done
169 to support component level version tracking.
170
|
171 sage 1.120 26. (MM) 22 Apr 2002 - Performance Measurement Implementation
172
|
173 kumpf 1.121 27. (Susan Campbell - HP) 22 Apr 2002 - Various enhancements and bug fixes
174 to the Managed System OS provider. Rolled in the Linux support from
175 the Linux-specific OS provider and added properties to the HP-UX and
176 Windows OS providers.
177
|
178 kumpf 1.122 28. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 24 Apr 2002 - Overhauled the configuration property
179 "unset" functionality. cimconfig now uses modifyInstance with a
180 property list to specify whether the current or planned value (or both)
181 are to be updated. It uses a "null" value to indicate that the value
182 should be unset (reset to default).
183
|
184 kumpf 1.123 29. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 24 Apr 2002 - Restructured the configuration
185 property owners to remove redundant code.
186
|
187 kumpf 1.124 30. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 26 Apr 2002 - Reimplement wbemexec to use a
188 new WbemExecClient interface based on HTTPConnection instead of the
189 obsolete Channel code. Also add SSL option to wbemexec.
190
|
191 kumpf 1.125 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Apr 2002 - Added copy constructors to the
192 CIMMessage subclasses.
193
|
194 kumpf 1.126 32. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 27 Apr 2002 - Fixed several defects
195 in MOF compiler associated with the handling the initialization
196 of array values.
|
197 karl 1.127
198 33. (KS) 30 April 2002 - Added Namespace Control Provider. Note that it is
199 not completely tested today and only enumeratenames is guaranteed.
200
|
201 kumpf 1.128 34. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 6 May 2002 - Reworked the String class. Fixed the
202 places where StrLen() was reading off the end of arrays. Removed the
203 Cat() functions. Moved Open(), OpenAppend(), and GetLine() functions
204 to the FileSystem module. Removed the EmptyStringArray() method.
205 Moved method implementations from header file to source file. Marked
206 the _CString class for internal use only.
207
|
208 kumpf 1.129 35. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 9 May 2002 - Updated the Logger to log to
209 syslog on the HP-UX platform.
210
211 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 9 May 2002 - Fixed the method
212 CIMDateTime::getCurrentDateTime() to return local time instead of UTC.
213 Updated the CIMDateTime::getDifference() method to compute the difference
214 between two local times. Also updated the getDifference to compute the
215 difference between two intervals.
216
|
217 mary 1.130 37. (Mary Hinton) 10 May 2002 - Fixed the problem in the new version of
218 pegasus_gettimeofday(struct timeval *tv)function for the Windows
219 platform. The new implementation was implemented for higher resolution
220 for performance statistics. However, it was causing an intermittent
221 hang in the ThreadPool test on the Windows platform.When (long int)
222 is changed to (__int64), the tv_usec variable of timeval struct has
223 the correct value.
224
|
225 kumpf 1.131 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 13 May 2002 - To eliminate the possibility of
226 collisions (and subsequent corruption) when different threads
227 concurrently update the ArrayRep reference count, I added a Mutex
228 to the ArrayRep structure. This Mutex gets locked in the inc()
229 and dec() methods that manage the reference count.
230
231 After adding the Mutex, the "mysterious" memory problems seemed to clear
232 up. This seems like a very good thing. However, note that the addition
233 of the Mutex adversely affects performance (nearly 2:1). I tried using
234 an AtomicInt for the reference count, but that seemed to yield even worse
235 performance on my system.
236
237 Anyone should feel free to optimize the performance of the locking in
238 the ArrayRep structure. Since I believe this locking is required for
239 proper operation, I've added the Mutex for all platforms. Note that I
240 had to comment out the assert statements in internal_dq.h to avoid a
241 circular header file dependency (Array.h->IPC.h->internal_dq.h->
242 Exception.h->String.h->Array.h).
243
|
244 kumpf 1.132 39. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 13 May 2002 - Removed operator int() methods from
245 all CIM* classes. These methods had been causing a number of difficult
246 to find defects, including the use of the wrong versions of the methods
247 in Memory.h by the Array template (leading to major memory leaks).
248
249 In general, it is dangerous to define a casting operator method that
250 loses so much information, because the compiler will apply the cast
251 at will in an effort to match types. I've replaced all instances of
252 the int cast operator with isNull() methods.
253
|
254 kumpf 1.133 40. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 May 2002 - HP-Nag: Added SSL Certificate verification
255 code in TLS.cpp, created a new class CertificateInfo to pass certificate
256 information to the client's call back function. Modified CIMServer.cpp and
257 the Command lines that are using SSLContext to pass a call back function.
258 Fixed few display messages in CIMConfigCommand.cpp to show meaningfule
259 messages when CIM server is not running.
260
|
261 kumpf 1.134 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 May 2002 - Moved CIM*::toXml() methods to
262 XmlWriter::append*Element(). Moved CIM*::print() methods to
263 XmlWriter::print*Element(). Putting this function in XmlWriter
264 instead of the CIM* classes keeps those internal methods out of
265 the published client and provider APIs.
266
|
267 kumpf 1.135 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 May 2002 - Moved CIM*::toMof() methods to
268 a new MofWriter class as MofWriter::append*Element(). Moved
269 CIM*::printMof() methods to MofWriter::print*Element().
270
|
271 kumpf 1.144 43. (Nag Boranna - HP) 16 May 2002 - Implemented SSL handling in
|
272 kumpf 1.136 CIMClient.cpp for local connection and modified the CLIs to not to pass
273 SSLContext to the client api.
274
|
275 kumpf 1.137 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 16 May 2002 - Reworked the Array template so that
276 each array has its own ArrayRep copy rather than Arrays sharing
277 ArrayReps and reference counting.
278
|
279 kumpf 1.144 45. (Nag Boranna - HP) 17 May 2002 - Moved SSLContext class out of
|
280 kumpf 1.138 TLS files, created SSLContextRep to hide members from the users of
281 SSLContext. Also included CertificateInfo in SSLContext files and
282 removed the CertificateInfo files, so that the client SDK can only
283 need to include SSLContext.h for the client apps to use.
284
|
285 kumpf 1.139 46. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 17 May 2002 - Fixed the CIMInstanceRep::resolve
286 method to return the correct class origin. Fixed SecurityPropertyOwner to
287 disallow passwordFilePath="".
288
|
289 kumpf 1.144 47. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 May 2002 - Modified CIM Server and Client
|
290 kumpf 1.140 API to lookup port number from services. CIM Server uses default port
291 number (5988 for HTTP or 5989 for HTTPS) if no port number is configured
292 and no port is specified in the configuration file. CIMClient's connectLocal()
293 method is modified to try and connect to HTTP port, if failed then try and
294 connect to HTTPS port.
295
|
296 kumpf 1.141 48. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 21 May 2002: Fixed a problem in repository related
297 to rollback failure.
298
|
299 sage 1.142 49. (MM) 23 May 2002 - Added ProviderAdapter support
300 The ProviderAdapterManager loads an additional Adapter library in
301 case of a non-default interfaceName. This Adapter library has to offer a
302 factory callback PegasusCreateProviderAdapter() in analogy to the
303 CIMBaseProvider - an example, the AdapterSkeleton, can be found in
304 src/Providers/generic/CMPIAdapter/
305
|
306 sage 1.143 50. (MM) 23 May 2002 - New AtomicInt implementation using pthread_spinlocks.
|
307 kumpf 1.144
308 51. (Nag Boranna - HP) 23 May 2002 - Added config properties
309 'enableHttpConnection' and 'enableHttpsConnection'. Renamed
310 'requireAuthentication' to 'enableAuthentication' and 'requireAuthorization'
|
311 kumpf 1.145 to 'enableNamespaceAuthorization'. Removed few ATTN's in Authentication code.
|
312 kumpf 1.144
|
313 kumpf 1.145 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 May 2002 - Reworked the Array template so that
314 the implementation is hidden from clients and providers. This was
315 accomplished by using explicit instantiation of the array template for
316 each array type that is supported in the client and provider APIs.
317 The array template implementation is still available for use within
318 the Pegasus core, allowing implicit instantiation of additional array
319 types used internally.
|
320 karl 1.146
321 53. KS 28 May 2002 - Added heiarchial subclass search of subclasses to
322 enumerateinstancenames and enumerateinstances. There is a problem
323 however with trashing of the requests messages so there is a
324 flag LIMIT_ENUM_TO_ONE_LEVEL in CIMOperationDispatcher.cpp that
325 causes it to go through all the motions except to request instances
326 only for the current level.
327
|
328 kumpf 1.147 54. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 28 May 2002 - Replaced getenv("PEGASUS_TRACE")
329 with Tracer calls. Fixed UserAuthProvider and ConfigSettingProvider to
330 check for user credentials. UserAuthProvider checks whether the user
|
331 kumpf 1.148 is a privileged user for all operations. ConfigSettingProvider checks
332 whether the user is a privileged user only for write operations.
|
333 sage 1.143
|
334 kumpf 1.149 55. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 30 May 2002 -
335 Removed the CIMNamedInstance and CIMObjectWithPath classes. The CIMObject
336 and CIMInstance classes now include a setPath (CIMObjectPath) method.
337 These changes will affect Clients and Providers. A call to the
338 CIMNamedInstance constructor with a CIMObjectPath and a CIMInstance should
339 be replaced with a call to the setPath () method on the CIMInstance,
340 passing the same CIMObjectPath. A call to the CIMNamedInstance
341 getInstance () method should be replaced with the CIMInstance, and a call
342 to the CIMNamedInstance getInstanceName () method should be replaced with a
343 call to the getPath () method on the CIMInstance. A call to the
344 CIMObjectWithPath constructor with a CIMObjectPath and a CIMObject, should
345 be replaced with a call the setPath () method on the CIMObject, passing the
346 same CIMObjectPath. A call to the CIMObjectWithPath getObject () method
347 should be replaced with the CIMObject, and a call to the CIMObjectWithPath
348 getReference () method should be replaced with a call to the CIMObject
349 getPath () method.
350
|
351 kumpf 1.151 56. (Jenny Yu - HP) 31 May 2002 - Implemented a cimserver_kill() method
|
352 kumpf 1.150 to kill the CIMServer process if the CIM Server is still running after
353 the shutdown timeout has expired during shutdown. The CIMServer process
354 Id is saved in a file after CIMServer starts up. This file is removed
355 after CIMServer terminates normally. Only added code for the HPUX
356 platform.
|
357 kumpf 1.151
358 57. (Jenny Yu - HP) 03 Jun 2002 - Removed all cimserver command line options
359 except for: -v (version), -h (help), -D (home), -s (shutdown), and
360 -install and -remove (for Windows only). All other options can be set
361 using the <configProperty=value> command line syntax.

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

404 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
405 karl 1.62
|
406 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
407 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
408
|
409 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
410 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
411 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
412 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
413 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
414
|
415 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
416 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
417 will be deleted.
418
|
419 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
420
421 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
422 karl 1.66
|
423 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
424 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
425 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
426 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
427 for remote clients.

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

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

530 karl 1.72
531 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
532 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
533
|
534 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
535 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
536 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
537 operations.
538
539 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
540 karl 1.74
541 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
542 definition of CIMFlavors.

544 kumpf 1.68
|
545 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
546 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
547 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
548 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
549 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
550 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
551 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
552
553 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
554 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
555 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
556 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
557 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
558 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
559 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
560 a single buffer.
561
562 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
563 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
564 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
565 various encoders and decoders, etc.
566 kumpf 1.75
567 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
568 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
569 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
570 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
571
572 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
573 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
574 validated.

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

|
713 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
714
715 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
716 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
717 may temporarily be in side branches.
718 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
719 karl 1.53
720 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
721 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
722 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
723 which is the current file based repository.
724
725 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
726 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
727 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
728 in the future.
|
729 karl 1.52
|
730 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
731 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
732 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
733 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
734 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
735 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
736
|
737 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
738 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
739 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
740 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
741 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
742 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
743
|
744 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
745 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
746 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
747 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
748 program.
749
|
750 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
751 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
752 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
753 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
754 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
755 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
756 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
757 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
758 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
759
760 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
761 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
762 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
763
764 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
765 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
766 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
767 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
768
769 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
770 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
771 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
772 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
773
774 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
775 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
776
777 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

787 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
788 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
789
790 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
791 mike 1.51 =======
792 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
793 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
794
795 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
796 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
797 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
798 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
799 should not affect any current work.
800 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
801 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
802 loads the 2.5 schema.
803
804 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
805 on XML output.
806
807 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
808 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
809 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
810 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
811 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
812 mike 1.51
813 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
814 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
815 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
816 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
817 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
818 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
819 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
820 to show user friendly error/status messages.
821
822 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
823 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
824 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
825 generating debug output.
826
827 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
828 xml when it generates xml output.
829
830 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
831 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
832 repository implementation.
833 mike 1.51
834 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
835
836 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
837
838 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
839
840 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
841
842 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.
843
844 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
845 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
846
847 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
848
849 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.
850
851 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
852
853 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
854 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
855 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
856
857 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
858 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
859 input and output can be written in a trace file.
860
861 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
862 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
863 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
864
865 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
866 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
867 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
868 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
869 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
870 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
871 are modified to implement above messages.
872
873 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
874 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
875 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
876 indication to consumer. This program needs
877 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
878 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
879 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
880 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
881 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
882 below:
883
884 //====================================================================
885 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
886 //====================================================================
887 [Description (
888 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
889 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
890 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
891
892 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
893 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
894 a provider library.
895
896 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
897 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
898 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
899 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
900 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
901 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
902 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
903 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
904 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
905 later).
906
907 Also added are two test programs:
908
909 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
910 CIMParamValue class.
911
912 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
913 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
914 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
915 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
916 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
917 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
918
919 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
920 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
921 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
922 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
923 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
924 and to verify the authentication.
925
926 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
927 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
928 yet linked into the build.
929
930 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
931 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
932 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
933 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
934 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
935 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
936 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
937
938 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
939 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
940 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
941 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
942 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
943 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
944 provider file path name.
945
946 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
947 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
948 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
949 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
950 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
951 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
952 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
953 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
954
955 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
956 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
957 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
958 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
959 mike 1.51
960 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
961 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
962 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
963 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
964
965 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
966 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
967 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
968 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
969 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
970 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
971 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
972 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
973 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
974
975 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
976 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
977
978 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
979
980 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
981 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
982 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
983 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
984 in make files.
985
986 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
987 because getting an error in 26
988
989 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
990 whose types are references. These reference values must be
991 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
992 tag structure.
993
994 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
995 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
996 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
997
998 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
999 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
1000 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
1001 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
1002 of String type and a key of reference type.
1003
1004 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
1005 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
1006 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
1007 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
1008 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
1009 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
1010 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
1011 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
1012
1013 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
1014 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
1015 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
1016 reference type.
1017
1018 In this example:
1019
1020 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
1021
1022 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
1023 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
1024 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
1025 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
1026 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
1027
1028 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
1029 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
1030 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
1031 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
1032 correctly.
1033
1034 The files that have been modified to make this change are
1035 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
1036
1037 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
1038 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
1039 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
1040 CIMOM version.
1041
1042 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
1043 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
1044 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
1045 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
1046 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
1047 definition to determine the key property types.
1048
1049 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
1050 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
1051 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
1052 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
1053
1054 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
1055 (instanceName).
1056
1057 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
1058 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
1059 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
1060 relevant intrinsic methods.
1061
1062 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
1063 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
1064 mike 1.51
1065 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
1066 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
1067 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
1068 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
1069 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
1070 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
1071 nsk platform links.
1072
1073 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
1074 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
1075 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
1076 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
1077 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
1078 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
1079 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
1080
1081 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
1082 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
1083 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
1084 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
1085 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
1086 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
1087 in that same form, without special character encoding.
1088
1089 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
1090 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
1091 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
1092 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
1093
1094 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
1095 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
1096 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
1097 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
1098 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
1099
1100 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
1101 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
1102 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
1103 be updated to use this class.
1104
1105 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
1106 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
1107 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
1108 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
1109 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
1110
1111 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
1112 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
1113 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
1114 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
1115 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
1116 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
1117
1118 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
1119
1120 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
1121 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
1122 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
1123 CIMNamedInstance
1124 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
1125 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
1126 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
1127 mike 1.51
1128 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
1129
1130 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
1131 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
1132 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
1133 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
1134 functionality.
1135
1136 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
1137
1138 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1139 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
1140 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1141 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
1142 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1143 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1144 the entire instance.
1145
1146 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1147 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
1148 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1149
1150 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
1151 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
1152 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
1153
1154 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
1155 ModifyInstance correctly.
1156
1157 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
1158 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
1159 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
1160 the DMTF specification.
1161
1162 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
1163 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
1164 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
1165 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
1166
1167 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
1168
1169 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1170 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
1171 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1172 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
1173 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1174 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1175 the entire instance.
1176
1177 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
1178 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
1179 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
1180 be used to update the instance.
1181
1182 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1183 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
1184 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1185
1186 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1187 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1188 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1189
1190 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1191 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1192 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1193 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1194 without the standard (std) namespace.
1195
1196 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1197 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1198 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1199
1200 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1201 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
1202 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
1203 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1204 following command before starting cimserver:
1205
1206 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1207
1208 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1209 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1210 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1211 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1212 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
1213 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1214 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1215
1216 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1217 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1218 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1219
1220 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1221 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1222 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1223 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1224 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1225
1226 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1227 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1228 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1229 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1230 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1231 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1232 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1233
1234 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1235 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1236
1237 Authentication and User Management:
1238 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1239 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1240 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1241 generated password file.
1242
1243 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1244 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1245
1246 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1247 management and authorization functionality.
1248
1249 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1250 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1251
1252 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1253 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1254 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1255
1256 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1257 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1258 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1259
1260 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1261 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1262 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1263 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1264 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1265 or change in provider registration.
1266
1267 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1268 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1269 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1270 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1271
1272 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1273 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1274 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1275 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1276 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1277 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1278 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1279 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1280 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1281 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1282 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1283 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1284 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1285 mike 1.50
|
1286 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1287 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1288
1289 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1300 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1301 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1302
1303 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1304 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1305
1306 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1307 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1308 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1309 and SimpleThread.
1310
1311 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1312 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1313 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1314 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1315 the test script.
1316
1317 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1318 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1319 and
1320 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1321 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1322 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1323
1324 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1325 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1326 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1327 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1328 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1329 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1330 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1331 information on running the test script.
1332
1333 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1334 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1335 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1336
1337 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1338 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1339 that
1340 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1341 password.
1342 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1343 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1344 build.
1345 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1346 modified to integrate with the framework.

1374
1375 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
1376 ids to queue pointers).

1399 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1400 karl 1.16
1401 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1402 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1403 mike 1.26
|
1404 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1405 5988.
1406 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1407 the DMTF.
|
1408 mike 1.26
|
1409 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1410 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1411 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1412 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1413 mike 1.26
|
1414 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1415 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1416 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1417 mike 1.26
|
1418 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1419 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1420 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1421 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1422 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1423 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1424 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1425 mike 1.26
|
1426 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1427 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1428 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1429 mike 1.26
|
1430 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1431 mike 1.26
|
1432 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1433 modifyClass,
|
1434 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1435 mike 1.26
|
1436 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1437 directory. These
1438 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1439 CIMProviderStub has
|
1440 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1441 mike 1.26
|
1442 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1443 mike 1.26
|
1444 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1445 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1446 mike 1.26
1447 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1448 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1449
1450 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1451 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1452 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1453 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1454 (MEB)
|
1455 mike 1.26
|
1456 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1457
|
1458 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1459 AssociationName
|
1460 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1461 pages.
1462
|
1463 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1464 sage 1.31
1465 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1466 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1467 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1468 variables.
|
1469 mike 1.32
1470 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1471 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1472 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1473 kumpf 1.34
1474 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1475 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1476 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1477 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1478 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1479 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1480 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1481 karl 1.35
1482 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1483 tests for stack and queue.

1536 4. Minor corrections to __Namespace Provider.
1537 5. Extend tests for Formatter, String, and other modules.
1538 6. Correct errors in documentation.

|
1547 karl 1.5
|
1548 karl 1.3 1. Add PEG_NOT_FOUND symbol to replace Uint32(-1) in any of the object
1549 find functions. Note: This symbol is defined in config.h. (ks).
1550
|
1551 karl 1.5 2. Port To HP UX. This required a number of changes particularly in the area
1552 of dynamic lib loaading.

1558 karl 1.3 21 May 2001 Version 0.97 - Tagged as version_0_97
|
1559 karl 1.1
1560 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1561 qualifiers, methods.
1562 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1563 methods.
1564 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1565 qualifiers and to
1566 remove qualifiers.
1567 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1568 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1569 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1570 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1571 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1572 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1573 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
