10 1. 10 June 2002 (KS) - Add new test function to use command line for
11 many commands. The command is CLI. Right now it has no documentation.
12
13 2. (Ramnath Ravindran - HP) 10 June 2002 - Commented out" #define
14 PEGASUS_HAVE_TEMPLATE_SPECIALIZATION" in Platform_TRU64_ALPHA_DECCXX.h.

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

387 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
388 karl 1.59
|
389 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
390 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
391 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
392 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
393 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
394 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
395 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
396
397 For more information look in to the following files:

401 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
402
403 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
404 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
405 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
406 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
407 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
408 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.

411 karl 1.62
|
412 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
413 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
414
|
415 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
416 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
417 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
418 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
419 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
420
|
421 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
422 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
423 will be deleted.
424
|
425 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
426
427 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests

|
429 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
430 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
431 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
432 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
433 for remote clients.

434 karl 1.66
|
435 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
436 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
437 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
438 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
439 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
440 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
441 values.
442
443 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
444
445 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
446 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
447 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
448 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
449 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
450 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
451
452 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
453 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
454 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
455 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
456 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
457 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
458 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
459 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
460 specified in the method definition.
461
462 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
463
464 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
465 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
466 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
467 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
468 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
469 correct type rather than as a String.
470
471 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
472 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
473 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
474 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
475 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
476 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
477 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
478
479 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
480 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
481 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
482
483 SIDE EFFECTS:
484
485 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
486 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
487 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
488 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
489 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
490
491 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
492 clean-up, which I completed.
493
494 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
495
496 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
497 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
498 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
499 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
500 the specified value to that property's type.
501
502 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
503 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
504 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
505 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
506
507 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
508 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
509 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
510 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
511 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
512 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
513
|
514 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
515 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
516 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
517 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
518 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
519 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
520 encoding of parameter values.
521
522 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
523 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
524 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
525 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
526 have defaulted to String type.

531 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
532 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
533 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
534 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
535 the server.

540 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
541 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
542 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
543 operations.
544
545 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.

550 kumpf 1.68
|
551 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
552 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
553 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
554 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
555 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
556 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
557 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
558
559 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
560 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
561 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
562 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
563 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
564 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
565 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
566 a single buffer.
567
568 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
569 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
570 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
571 various encoders and decoders, etc.
572 kumpf 1.75
573 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
574 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
575 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
576 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
577
578 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
579 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
580 validated.

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

585 karl 1.78
|
586 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
587 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
588
589 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
590 HTTPConnector* connector;
591 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
592 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
593
594 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
595
596 With this change, the client application now looks like:
597
598 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
599
600 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
601
602 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
603 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
604 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
605 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
606 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
607 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
608 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
609 rather than in the constructor.
610
611 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
612 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
613 included in the Pegasus build.

614 kumpf 1.79

615 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
616 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
617 kumpf 1.75
|
618 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
619 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
620 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
621 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
622 for that purpose.
623
624 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
625
626 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
627 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
628 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
629 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
630 line number of the CIMException originator.
631
632 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
633
634 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
635 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
636 input and writes the String to the trace file.
637
638 (ex.)
639 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
640 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
641
642 or use the following new macro:
643 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
644

645 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
646 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
647 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
648 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
649 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
650 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
651 ramnath 1.81
652 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
653 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
654 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
655 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
656 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
657 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
658 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
659 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
660 ramnath 1.80
|
661 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
662 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
663 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
664 in the Windows service work thread.
665
|
666 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
667 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
668 executable
669
670 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
671 executable.
|
672 kumpf 1.84
673 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
674 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
675 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
676 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
677 an integer of the specified size.
678
|
679 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
680 in XmlReader.cpp.
681
|
682 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
683 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
684 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
685 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
686
|
687 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
688 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
689 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
690 karl 1.88
691 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
692 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
693
|
694 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
695 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
696 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
697 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
698 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
699 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
700 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
701 linked into the server.
|
702 karl 1.88
|
703 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
704 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
705 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
706
|
707 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
708 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
709 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
710 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
711 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
712 karl 1.92
713 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
714 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
715 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.

719 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
720
721 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
722 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
723 may temporarily be in side branches.
724 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
725 karl 1.53
726 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
727 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
728 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
729 which is the current file based repository.
730
731 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
732 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
733 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
734 in the future.

735 karl 1.52
|
736 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
737 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
738 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
739 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
740 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
741 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
742
|
743 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
744 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
745 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
746 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
747 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
748 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
749
|
750 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
751 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
752 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
753 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
754 program.
755
|
756 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
757 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
758 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
759 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
760 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
761 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
762 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
763 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
764 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
765
766 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
767 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
768 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
769
770 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
771 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
772 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
773 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
774
775 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
776 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
777 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
778 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
779
780 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
781 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
782
783 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

793 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
794 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
795
796 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
797 mike 1.51 =======
798 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
799 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
800
801 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
802 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
803 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
804 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
805 should not affect any current work.
806 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
807 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
808 loads the 2.5 schema.
809
810 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
811 on XML output.
812
813 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
814 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
815 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
816 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
817 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
818 mike 1.51
819 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
820 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
821 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
822 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
823 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
824 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
825 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
826 to show user friendly error/status messages.
827
828 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
829 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
830 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
831 generating debug output.
832
833 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
834 xml when it generates xml output.
835
836 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
837 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
838 repository implementation.
839 mike 1.51
840 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
841
842 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
843
844 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
845
846 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
847
848 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.
849
850 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
851 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
852
853 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
854
855 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.
856
857 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
858
859 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
860 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
861 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
862
863 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
864 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
865 input and output can be written in a trace file.
866
867 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
868 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
869 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
870
871 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
872 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
873 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
874 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
875 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
876 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
877 are modified to implement above messages.
878
879 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
880 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
881 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
882 indication to consumer. This program needs
883 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
884 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
885 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
886 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
887 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
888 below:
889
890 //====================================================================
891 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
892 //====================================================================
893 [Description (
894 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
895 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
896 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
897
898 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
899 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
900 a provider library.
901
902 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
903 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
904 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
905 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
906 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
907 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
908 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
909 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
910 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
911 later).
912
913 Also added are two test programs:
914
915 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
916 CIMParamValue class.
917
918 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
919 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
920 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
921 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
922 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
923 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
924
925 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
926 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
927 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
928 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
929 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
930 and to verify the authentication.
931
932 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
933 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
934 yet linked into the build.
935
936 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
937 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
938 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
939 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
940 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
941 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
942 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
943
944 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
945 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
946 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
947 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
948 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
949 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
950 provider file path name.
951
952 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
953 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
954 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
955 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
956 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
957 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
958 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
959 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
960
961 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
962 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
963 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
964 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
965 mike 1.51
966 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
967 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
968 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
969 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
970
971 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
972 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
973 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
974 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
975 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
976 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
977 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
978 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
979 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
980
981 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
982 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
983
984 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
985
986 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
987 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
988 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
989 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
990 in make files.
991
992 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
993 because getting an error in 26
994
995 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
996 whose types are references. These reference values must be
997 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
998 tag structure.
999
1000 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
1001 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
1002 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
1003
1004 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
1005 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
1006 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
1007 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
1008 of String type and a key of reference type.
1009
1010 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
1011 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
1012 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
1013 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
1014 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
1015 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
1016 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
1017 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
1018
1019 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
1020 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
1021 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
1022 reference type.
1023
1024 In this example:
1025
1026 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
1027
1028 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
1029 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
1030 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
1031 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
1032 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
1033
1034 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
1035 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
1036 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
1037 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
1038 correctly.
1039
1040 The files that have been modified to make this change are
1041 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
1042
1043 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
1044 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
1045 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
1046 CIMOM version.
1047
1048 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
1049 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
1050 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
1051 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
1052 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
1053 definition to determine the key property types.
1054
1055 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
1056 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
1057 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
1058 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
1059
1060 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
1061 (instanceName).
1062
1063 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
1064 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
1065 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
1066 relevant intrinsic methods.
1067
1068 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
1069 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
1070 mike 1.51
1071 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
1072 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
1073 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
1074 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
1075 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
1076 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
1077 nsk platform links.
1078
1079 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
1080 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
1081 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
1082 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
1083 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
1084 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
1085 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
1086
1087 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
1088 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
1089 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
1090 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
1091 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
1092 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
1093 in that same form, without special character encoding.
1094
1095 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
1096 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
1097 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
1098 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
1099
1100 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
1101 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
1102 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
1103 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
1104 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
1105
1106 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
1107 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
1108 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
1109 be updated to use this class.
1110
1111 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
1112 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
1113 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
1114 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
1115 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
1116
1117 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
1118 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
1119 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
1120 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
1121 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
1122 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
1123
1124 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
1125
1126 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
1127 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
1128 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
1129 CIMNamedInstance
1130 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
1131 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
1132 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
1133 mike 1.51
1134 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
1135
1136 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
1137 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
1138 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
1139 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
1140 functionality.
1141
1142 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
1143
1144 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1145 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
1146 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1147 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
1148 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1149 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1150 the entire instance.
1151
1152 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1153 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
1154 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1155
1156 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
1157 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
1158 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
1159
1160 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
1161 ModifyInstance correctly.
1162
1163 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
1164 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
1165 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
1166 the DMTF specification.
1167
1168 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
1169 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
1170 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
1171 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
1172
1173 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
1174
1175 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
1176 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
1177 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
1178 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
1179 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
1180 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
1181 the entire instance.
1182
1183 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
1184 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
1185 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
1186 be used to update the instance.
1187
1188 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
1189 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
1190 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
1191
1192 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
1193 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
1194 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
1195
1196 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
1197 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
1198 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
1199 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
1200 without the standard (std) namespace.
1201
1202 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
1203 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
1204 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
1205
1206 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
1207 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
1208 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
1209 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
1210 following command before starting cimserver:
1211
1212 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
1213
1214 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
1215 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
1216 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
1217 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
1218 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
1219 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
1220 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
1221
1222 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
1223 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
1224 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
1225
1226 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
1227 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
1228 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
1229 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
1230 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
1231
1232 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
1233 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
1234 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
1235 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
1236 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
1237 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
1238 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
1239
1240 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
1241 Security components for authentication and authorization.
1242
1243 Authentication and User Management:
1244 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
1245 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
1246 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
1247 generated password file.
1248
1249 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
1250 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
1251
1252 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
1253 management and authorization functionality.
1254
1255 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
1256 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
1257
1258 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
1259 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
1260 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
1261
1262 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
1263 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
1264 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
1265
1266 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
1267 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
1268 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
1269 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
1270 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
1271 or change in provider registration.
1272
1273 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
1274 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
1275 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
1276 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
1277
1278 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
1279 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
1280 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
1281 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
1282 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
1283 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
1284 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
1285 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
1286 How to use it in a Server or Client:
1287 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
1288 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
1289 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
1290 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
1291 mike 1.50
|
1292 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
1293 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
1294
1295 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

1298 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch
1299 Tagged as version_1_01 on 3 August 2001 (sorry should have been
1300 1.1
1301
1302 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
1303 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
1304 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
1305
1306 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
1307 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
1308
1309 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
1310 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
1311
1312 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
1313 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
1314 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
1315 and SimpleThread.
1316
1317 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
1318 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
1319 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
1320 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
1321 the test script.
1322
1323 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
1324 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
1325 and
1326 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
1327 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
1328 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
1329
1330 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
1331 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
1332 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
1333 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
1334 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
1335 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
1336 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
1337 information on running the test script.
1338
1339 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
1340 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
1341 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
1342
1343 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
1344 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
1345 that
1346 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
1347 password.
1348 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
1349 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
1350 build.
1351 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
1352 modified to integrate with the framework.

1405 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1406 karl 1.16
1407 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1408 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1409 mike 1.26
|
1410 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1411 5988.
1412 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1413 the DMTF.
|
1414 mike 1.26
|
1415 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1416 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1417 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1418 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1419 mike 1.26
|
1420 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1421 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1422 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1423 mike 1.26
|
1424 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1425 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1426 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1427 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1428 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1429 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1430 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1431 mike 1.26
|
1432 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1433 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1434 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1435 mike 1.26
|
1436 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1437 mike 1.26
|
1438 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1439 modifyClass,
|
1440 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1441 mike 1.26
|
1442 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1443 directory. These
1444 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1445 CIMProviderStub has
|
1446 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1447 mike 1.26
|
1448 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1449 mike 1.26
|
1450 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1451 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1452 mike 1.26
1453 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1454 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1455
1456 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1457 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1458 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1459 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1460 (MEB)
|
1461 mike 1.26
|
1462 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1463
|
1464 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1465 AssociationName
|
1466 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1467 pages.
1468
|
1469 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1470 sage 1.31
1471 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1472 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1473 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1474 variables.
|
1475 mike 1.32
1476 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1477 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1478 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1479 kumpf 1.34
1480 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1481 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1482 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1483 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1484 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1485 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1486 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1487 karl 1.35
1488 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1489 tests for stack and queue.

|
1553 karl 1.5
|
1554 karl 1.3 1. Add PEG_NOT_FOUND symbol to replace Uint32(-1) in any of the object
1555 find functions. Note: This symbol is defined in config.h. (ks).
1556
|
1557 karl 1.5 2. Port To HP UX. This required a number of changes particularly in the area

1564 karl 1.3 21 May 2001 Version 0.97 - Tagged as version_0_97
|
1565 karl 1.1
1566 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1567 qualifiers, methods.
1568 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1569 methods.
1570 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1571 qualifiers and to
1572 remove qualifiers.
1573 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1574 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1575 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1576 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1577 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1578 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1579 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
