  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 1.49.2.39 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
 80                     ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
 81                     consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
 82                     indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
 83                     implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
 84                     RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
 85                     are modified to implement above messages. 
 86                 
 87                     XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
 88                     operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
 89                     instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
 90                     indication to consumer. This program needs
 91                     src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof 
 92                     and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
 93                     in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
 94                     program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
 95                     modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
 96                     below:
 97 kumpf 1.49.2.26 
 98                     //====================================================================
 99                     //  CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
100                     //====================================================================
101                     [Description (
102                       "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
103                       "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
104                       "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
105                 
106 kumpf 1.49.2.27 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
107                     ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
108                     a provider library.
109 kumpf 1.49.2.28 
110 kumpf 1.49.2.39 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
111                     interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
112                     type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
113                     information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
114                     to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
115                     parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
116                     call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
117                     travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
118                     CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
119                     later). 
120 kumpf 1.49.2.28 
121                     Also added are two test programs: 
122                 	
123 kumpf 1.49.2.39     src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
124                         CIMParamValue class.
125 kumpf 1.49.2.28 	
126 kumpf 1.49.2.39     src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
127                         InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
128                         implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
129                         and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
130                         CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
131                         which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
132 kumpf 1.49.2.28 
133 kumpf 1.49.2.29 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
134 kumpf 1.49.2.39     authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
135                     and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
136                     module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
137                     interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
138                     and to verify the authentication.
139                 
140                     A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
141                     This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
142                     yet linked into the build.
143                 
144                 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
145                     Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
146                     before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
147                     request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
148                     New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
149                     appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
150                     _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
151                 
152                 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
153                     fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
154                     providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
155 kumpf 1.49.2.39     construction (appending .sl or .so) from
156                     CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
157                     ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
158                     provider file path name.
159                 
160                 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
161                     Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
162                     definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
163                     structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
164                     Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
165                     agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
166                     Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
167                     implement specific trap delivery mechanism. 
168 kumpf 1.49.2.32 
169 kumpf 1.49.2.33 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
170                     be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
171                     property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
172                     plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
173 kumpf 1.49.2.34 
174                 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer 
175                     to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
176                     string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface. 
177 rudy  1.49.2.38     Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
178 kumpf 1.49.2.35 
179 rudy  1.49.2.38 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
180                     NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
181                     were added:  platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
182                     library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak, 
183                     program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
184                     all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
185                     only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
186                     library.mak were changed to include the NSK files. 
187                     File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
188                 
189                 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
190 kumpf 1.49.2.35     commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
191 karl  1.49.2.36     
192 kumpf 1.49.2.39 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
193 rudy  1.49.2.38 
194                 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
195                     pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
196                     the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
197                     leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
198                     in make files.
199 karl  1.49.2.40    
200                 35. (K Schopmeyer 2 Nov 2001)Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25 
201                     because getting an error in 26
202 kumpf 1.49.2.39 
203                 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
204                     whose types are references.  These reference values must be
205                     treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
206                     tag structure.
207                 
208                     Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
209                     For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
210                     type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
211                 
212                     I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
213                     CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
214                     XML in the proper format.  However, making that change required
215                     that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
216                     of String type and a key of reference type.
217                 
218                     I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
219                     allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
220                     reference type.  The "official" form uses the same encoding for
221                     key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
222                     would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
223 kumpf 1.49.2.39     the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
224                     key values.  This is clearly too inefficient for internal
225                     transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
226                 
227                     The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
228                     for a key of reference type (before the opening '"').  This allows
229                     the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
230                     reference type.
231                 
232                     In this example:
233                 
234                         MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
235                 
236                     Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
237                     the usual encoding.  Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
238                     is inserted before its encoded value.  Note that this algorithm is
239                     recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
240                     which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
241                 
242                     The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry.  A new
243                     KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
244 kumpf 1.49.2.39     CIMReference that are of reference type.  This KeyBinding type must
245                     be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
246                     correctly.
247                 
248                     The files that have been modified to make this change are
249                     CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
250                 
251                     A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
252                     repository will include this extra 'R' character.  Thus, you will
253                     need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
254                     CIMOM version.
255                 
256                     Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
257                     names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
258                     instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
259                     therefore unacceptable.  It is likely that these points will need
260                     to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
261                     definition to determine the key property types.
262 karl  1.49.2.37 
263 kumpf 1.49.2.41 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components 
264                     in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
265                     init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with 
266                     cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
267                 
268 kumpf 1.49.2.42 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference 
269                     (instanceName).
270                 
271 kumpf 1.49.2.43 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 Implemented encoding/decoding of
272                     GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
273                     Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
274                     relevant intrinsic methods.
275                 
276 sage  1.49.2.44 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 Added Associator calls to CIMBase
277                     ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
278                 
279 rudy  1.49.2.45 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 Common module: added the following
280                     files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
281                     TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
282                     IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
283                     SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
284                     (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
285                     nsk platform links. 
286                 
287 kumpf 1.49.2.46 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
288                     toString() method for CIMValues of String type.  The old behavior
289                     returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
290                     replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents.  For example, a CIMValue of a"b
291                     would be returned as a&quot;b.  The new behavior just returns the
292                     String value directly with no translation.  (Note that
293                     CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
294                 
295                     This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
296                     repository.  CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
297                     CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
298                     CIMValue.toString().  GetInstance searches for the instance name
299                     without UTF-8 encoding of special characters.  For GetInstance to
300                     be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
301                     in that same form, without special character encoding.

389                 
390                 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
391                    ids to queue pointers).
392                 
393 mike  1.43      6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler

415 karl  1.16      
416                 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day.  This includes code bothe
417                 for NT and Linux platforms.
418 mike  1.26      
419 karl  1.17      2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
420                 5988.
421                 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
422                 the DMTF.
423 mike  1.26      
424 karl  1.17      3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
425                 Fusion event.  THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
426                 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF.  Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
427                 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
428 mike  1.26      
429 bob   1.18      4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
430                 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}.  This is the first step in
431                 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
432 mike  1.26      
433 bob   1.19      5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
434                 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
435                 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
436                 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform.  This should
437                 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
438                 code.  The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
439 bob   1.20      (grb)
440 mike  1.26      
441 bob   1.20      6.  Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
442                 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
443                 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
444 mike  1.26      
445 karl  1.21      7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
446 mike  1.26      
447 karl  1.25      8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
448                 modifyClass,
449 chip  1.22      createClass to protect caller's object.
450 mike  1.26      
451 karl  1.25      9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
452                 directory. These
453                 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
454                 CIMProviderStub has
455 chip  1.23      been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
456 mike  1.26      
457 sage  1.24      10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
458 mike  1.26      
459 karl  1.25      11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository.  To rebuild
460                 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
461 mike  1.26      
462                 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
463 mike  1.27          (MEB)
464                 
465                 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
466                     Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
467                     Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
468                     Need to handle deleteInstance().

471 mday  1.28      14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
472                 
473 karl  1.30      15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
474                 AssociationName
475 karl  1.29      and ReferenceName functions.  This included extensive update to the HTML

480                 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
481                 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
482                 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
483                 variables.
484 mike  1.32      
485                 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
486                     References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
487                     on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
488 kumpf 1.34      
489                 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
490                     changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
491                     buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
492                     change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
493                     lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
494                     and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
495                     these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
496 karl  1.35      
497                 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
498                     tests for stack and queue.

512                 	c. add parameter in optionsrow for help message and enable the capture
513 karl  1.12      	   of these messages in Options class.  Also added help print that

515 karl  1.11      	d. Eliminate a couple of messages coming from __Namespace provider.
516                 	e. Extend the Clients\testclient so he does tests on Namespace.
517 karl  1.15      2. (KS)Extended Log to show time, severity.

532                 not
533 karl  1.14      print out all of the message.  At the least it prints out the error message
534                 and components of the message causing the problem.
535 mike  1.33      
536 karl  1.15      8. (KS)Added clean option to server but temprarily disabled.

562 karl  1.5       
563 karl  1.3       1. Add PEG_NOT_FOUND symbol to replace Uint32(-1) in any of the object
564                 find functions.  Note: This symbol is defined in config.h. (ks).
565                 
566 karl  1.5       2. Port To HP UX.  This required a number of changes particularly in the area
567                 of dynamic lib loaading.

573 karl  1.3       21 May 2001  Version 0.97 - Tagged as version_0_97
574 karl  1.1       
575                 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
576                 qualifiers, methods.
577                 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
578                 methods.
579                 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
580                 qualifiers and to
581                 remove qualifiers.
582                 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
583                 compiler.  It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
584 karl  1.2       the current compiler.  This version of the port produces an excessively large
585                 common module due to template bloat.  That problem will be fixed in a future
586                 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
587                 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems.  The port has been tested
588                 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
