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 kumpf 1.49.2.55 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
201 karl 1.49.2.40 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 1.49.2.55 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
269 kumpf 1.49.2.42 (instanceName). 270
271 kumpf 1.49.2.55 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
272 kumpf 1.49.2.43 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages. 273 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all 274 relevant intrinsic methods. 275
276 kumpf 1.49.2.55 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
277 sage 1.49.2.44 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp 278
279 kumpf 1.49.2.55 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
280 rudy 1.49.2.45 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 1.49.2.55 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
288 kumpf 1.49.2.46 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"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. 302
303 kumpf 1.49.2.55 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
304 kumpf 1.49.2.47 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(), 305 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml(). 306 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers. 307
308 kumpf 1.49.2.55 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
309 kumpf 1.49.2.48 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class 310 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the 311 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>. 312 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml. 313
314 kumpf 1.49.2.55 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
315 kumpf 1.49.2.49 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values 316 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to 317 be updated to use this class. 318
319 kumpf 1.49.2.55 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
320 kumpf 1.49.2.50 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing 321 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider 322 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function 323 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files. 324
325 kumpf 1.49.2.55 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
326 kumpf 1.49.2.51 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate 327 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests. 328 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send 329 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation 330 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism. 331
332 kumpf 1.49.2.55 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
333 kumpf 1.49.2.52 334 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance> 335 to Array<CIMNamedInstance> 336 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to 337 CIMNamedInstance 338 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance 339 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the 340 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String> 341 342 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification. 343 344 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider 345 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the 346 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function. 347 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added 348 functionality. 349 350 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible: 351 352 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which 353 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the 354 kumpf 1.49.2.52 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the 355 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by 356 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of 357 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace 358 the entire instance. 359 360 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with 361 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive 362 these instance names, as the standard dictates. 363 364 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the 365 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows 366 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list. 367 368 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in 369 ModifyInstance correctly. 370
371 kumpf 1.49.2.55 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
372 kumpf 1.49.2.53 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and 373 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with 374 the DMTF specification. 375 376 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no 377 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will 378 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity 379 to take advantage of the features that have been added. 380 381 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are: 382 383 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which 384 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the 385 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the 386 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by 387 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of 388 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace 389 the entire instance. 390 391 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance 392 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is 393 kumpf 1.49.2.53 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not 394 be used to update the instance. 395 396 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with 397 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive 398 these instance names, as the standard dictates. 399 400 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated. 401 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw 402 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception. 403
404 kumpf 1.49.2.55 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
405 rudy 1.49.2.54 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to 406 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK 407 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation 408 without the standard (std) namespace.
409 kumpf 1.49.2.55 410 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration 411 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository: 412 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName. 413 414 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the 415 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default 416 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To 417 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the 418 following command before starting cimserver: 419 420 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p 421 422 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what 423 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a 424 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve 425 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set 426 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the 427 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a 428 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition. 429
430 kumpf 1.49.2.56 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to 431 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides 432 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures. 433
434 kumpf 1.49.2.57 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in 435 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and 436 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository 437 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now 438 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance. 439 440 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and 441 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and 442 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers 443 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new 444 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty 445 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only 446 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation. 447
448 kumpf 1.49.2.58 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the 449 Security components for authentication and authorization. 450 451 Authentication and User Management: 452 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal 453 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored 454 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd 455 generated password file. 456 457 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting 458 to add/remove/list user authorizations. 459 460 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user 461 management and authorization functionality. 462
463 mike 1.49.2.59 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory 464 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF. 465
466 kumpf 1.49.2.60 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider 467 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider. 468 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes. 469
470 rudy 1.49.2.61 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h 471 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the 472 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file. 473

585 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
586 karl 1.16 587 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe 588 for NT and Linux platforms.
589 mike 1.26
590 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to 591 5988. 592 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by 593 the DMTF.
594 mike 1.26
595 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF 596 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from 597 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b). 598 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
599 mike 1.26
600 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp 601 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in 602 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
603 mike 1.26
604 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified 605 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp. 606 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser 607 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should 608 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome 609 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
610 bob 1.20 (grb)
611 mike 1.26
612 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes. 613 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler 614 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
615 mike 1.26
616 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
617 mike 1.26
618 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance, 619 modifyClass,
620 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
621 mike 1.26
622 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2 623 directory. These 624 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations. 625 CIMProviderStub has
626 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
627 mike 1.26
628 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
629 mike 1.26
630 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild 631 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
632 mike 1.26 633 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
634 mike 1.27 (MEB) 635 636 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported). 637 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still. 638 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations). 639 Need to handle deleteInstance(). 640 (MEB)
641 mike 1.26
642 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD) 643
644 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install 645 AssociationName
646 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML 647 pages. 648
649 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
650 sage 1.31 651 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed 652 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB). 653 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment 654 variables.
655 mike 1.32 656 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(), 657 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate 658 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
659 kumpf 1.34 660 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support 661 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries 662 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest 663 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific 664 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile 665 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of 666 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
667 karl 1.35 668 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added 669 tests for stack and queue.

700 karl 1.13 throws CannotBind exception.
701 mike 1.33
702 karl 1.15 7. (KS)Added logger entry to XMLParser for errors. NOTE: At this point it may 703 not
704 karl 1.14 print out all of the message. At the least it prints out the error message 705 and components of the message causing the problem.

732 karl 1.6 23 May 2001 Version 0.97.1 Tags as version_0_971
733 karl 1.5
734 karl 1.3 1. Add PEG_NOT_FOUND symbol to replace Uint32(-1) in any of the object 735 find functions. Note: This symbol is defined in config.h. (ks). 736
737 karl 1.5 2. Port To HP UX. This required a number of changes particularly in the area 738 of dynamic lib loaading.
739 karl 1.1 740

743 mike 1.26
744 karl 1.3 21 May 2001 Version 0.97 - Tagged as version_0_97
745 karl 1.1 746 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties, 747 qualifiers, methods. 748 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier, 749 methods. 750 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of 751 qualifiers and to 752 remove qualifiers. 753 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX 754 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
755 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large 756 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future 757 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate 758 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested 759 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
