  1 karl  1.1 CHANGE LOG FOR PEGASUS
  2           
  3 karl  1.49.2.8 Version 1.1.1 - 3 August 2001 -  Development Branch (Work in Progress)
  4                		current working dev branch of build
  5 mike  1.36     
  6 karl  1.49.2.9 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
  7                	seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
  8 karl  1.49.2.10 	
  9                 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
 10                 	to the final version in Schemas\CIM25.  This included minor
 11                 	corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
 12                 	official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF.  This change
 13                 	should not affect any current work.
 14                 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
 15                 	directorys.  Note however that today the make repository still
 16                 	loads the 2.5 schema.
 17 karl  1.49.2.11 	
 18                 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
 19                         on XML output.
 20                         
 21 kumpf 1.49.2.12 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
 22                 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
 23                 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp).  aCC scopes variable
 24                 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
 25                 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
 26                 
 27 kumpf 1.49.2.13 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove 
 28                 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the 
 29                 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files 
 30                 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that 
 31                 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config 
 32                 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified 
 33                 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI 
 34                 to show user friendly error/status messages.
 35 karl  1.49.2.11         
 36 kumpf 1.49.2.14 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI 
 37                 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).  
 38                 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in 
 39                 generating debug output.
 40                 
 41 karl  1.49.2.15 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
 42                 xml when it generates xml output.
 43                 
 44 kumpf 1.49.2.16 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
 45                 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
 46                 repository implementation.
 47                 
 48 mike  1.49.2.17 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
 49                 
 50                 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
 51                 
 52                 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
 53                 
 54                 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
 55                 
 56 kumpf 1.49.2.18 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.
 57                 
 58 mike  1.49.2.19 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
 59                     CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
 60                 
 61 mike  1.49.2.20 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
 62                 
 63 kumpf 1.49.2.21 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.
 64                 
 65 sage  1.49.2.22 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
 66                 
 67 kumpf 1.49.2.23 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
 68                     interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
 69                     a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
 70                 
 71 kumpf 1.49.2.24 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
 72                     CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML 
 73                     input and output can be written in a trace file.
 74                 
 75 sage  1.49.2.25 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
 76                     Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
 77                     deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
 78                 
 79 kumpf 1.49.2.26 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and ExportClient 
 80                     to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample consumer is added which 
 81                     will consume (by displaying on screen) the indication exported by 
 82                     CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete implementation is based on 
 83                     CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp 
 84                     and Message.h files are modified to implement above messages. 
 85                 
 86                     XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete operation. 
 87                     It now creates a consumer, handler and indication instance and then calls 
 88                     CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the indication to consumer. This
 89                     program needs src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof 
 90                     and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded in the repository
 91                     to complete the test successfully. This test program also needs Handler qualifier 
 92                     defined in repository and modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP 
 93                     class as below:
 94                 
 95                     //====================================================================
 96                     //  CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
 97                     //====================================================================
 98                     [Description (
 99                       "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
100 kumpf 1.49.2.26       "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
101                       "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
102                 
103 kumpf 1.49.2.27 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
104                     ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
105                     a provider library.
106 karl  1.49      ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
107 karl  1.49.2.8  Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch

143                    using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
144                    mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
145 karl  1.49.2.5     is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
146 kumpf 1.49.2.4     information on running the test script.
147 karl  1.49.2.5  
148                 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
149                    (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
150                    functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
151                 
152 kumpf 1.49.2.6  7. (Bapu Patil - HP)  Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
153 karl  1.49.2.8     Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
154                    that
155                    connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
156                    password.
157                    Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
158                    This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
159                    build.
160                    When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
161 kumpf 1.49.2.6     modified to integrate with the framework.
162                 
163 kumpf 1.49.2.7  8. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Removed the ltoa() function call from Tracer.cpp.
164                    Added a constant to define the maximum length of uint32.
165 kumpf 1.49.2.6

192                 
193                 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
194                    ids to queue pointers).
195                 
196 mike  1.43      6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler

217 karl  1.35      Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
218 karl  1.16      
219                 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day.  This includes code bothe
220                 for NT and Linux platforms.
221 mike  1.26      
222 karl  1.17      2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
223                 5988.
224                 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
225                 the DMTF.
226 mike  1.26      
227 karl  1.17      3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
228                 Fusion event.  THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
229                 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF.  Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
230                 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
231 mike  1.26      
232 bob   1.18      4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
233                 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}.  This is the first step in
234                 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
235 mike  1.26      
236 bob   1.19      5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
237                 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
238                 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
239                 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform.  This should
240                 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
241                 code.  The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
242 bob   1.20      (grb)
243 mike  1.26      
244 bob   1.20      6.  Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
245                 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
246                 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
247 mike  1.26      
248 karl  1.21      7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
249 mike  1.26      
250 karl  1.25      8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
251                 modifyClass,
252 chip  1.22      createClass to protect caller's object.
253 mike  1.26      
254 karl  1.25      9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
255                 directory. These
256                 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
257                 CIMProviderStub has
258 chip  1.23      been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
259 mike  1.26      
260 sage  1.24      10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
261 mike  1.26      
262 karl  1.25      11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository.  To rebuild
263                 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
264 mike  1.26      
265                 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
266 mike  1.27          (MEB)
267                 
268                 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
269                     Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
270                     Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
271                     Need to handle deleteInstance().
272                     (MEB)
273 mike  1.26      
274 mday  1.28      14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
275                 
276 karl  1.30      15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
277                 AssociationName
278 karl  1.29      and ReferenceName functions.  This included extensive update to the HTML
279                 pages.
280                 
281 karl  1.30      16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
282 sage  1.31      
283                 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
284                 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
285                 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
286                 variables.
287 mike  1.32      
288                 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
289                     References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
290                     on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
291 kumpf 1.34      
292                 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
293                     changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
294                     buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
295                     change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
296                     lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
297                     and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
298                     these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
299 karl  1.35      
300                 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
301                     tests for stack and queue.

315                 	c. add parameter in optionsrow for help message and enable the capture
316 karl  1.12      	   of these messages in Options class.  Also added help print that
317                 	   prints these things out.  However, format not to beautiful.
318 karl  1.11      	d. Eliminate a couple of messages coming from __Namespace provider.
319                 	e. Extend the Clients\testclient so he does tests on Namespace.
320 karl  1.15      2. (KS)Extended Log to show time, severity.

335                 not
336 karl  1.14      print out all of the message.  At the least it prints out the error message
337                 and components of the message causing the problem.
338 mike  1.33      
339 karl  1.15      8. (KS)Added clean option to server but temprarily disabled.

365 karl  1.5       
366 karl  1.3       1. Add PEG_NOT_FOUND symbol to replace Uint32(-1) in any of the object
367                 find functions.  Note: This symbol is defined in config.h. (ks).
368                 
369 karl  1.5       2. Port To HP UX.  This required a number of changes particularly in the area
370                 of dynamic lib loaading.

376 karl  1.3       21 May 2001  Version 0.97 - Tagged as version_0_97
377 karl  1.1       
378                 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
379                 qualifiers, methods.
380                 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
381                 methods.
382                 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
383                 qualifiers and to
384                 remove qualifiers.
385                 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
386                 compiler.  It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
387 karl  1.2       the current compiler.  This version of the port produces an excessively large
388                 common module due to template bloat.  That problem will be fixed in a future
389                 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
390                 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems.  The port has been tested
391                 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
