1 karl 1.1 CHANGE LOG FOR PEGASUS
|
2 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
3
4 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
5 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
6 may temporarily be in side branches.
7 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.

8 karl 1.53
9 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
10 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
11 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
12 which is the current file based repository.
13
14 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
15 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
16 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
17 in the future.

19 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
20 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
21 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
22 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
23 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
24 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
25
|
26 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
27 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
28 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
29 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
30 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
31 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
32
|
33 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
34 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
35 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
36 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
37 program.

42 mike 1.51 Version 1.1.1 - 3 August 2001 - Development Branch (Work in Progress)
43 current working dev branch of build
|
44 mike 1.36

45 karl 1.49 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
46 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
47
|
48 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
49 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
50
51 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
52 mike 1.51 =======
53 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
54 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
55
56 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
57 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
58 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
59 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
60 should not affect any current work.
61 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
62 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
63 loads the 2.5 schema.
64
65 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
66 on XML output.
67
68 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
69 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
70 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
71 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
72 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
73 mike 1.51
74 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
75 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
76 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
77 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
78 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
79 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
80 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
81 to show user friendly error/status messages.
82
83 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
84 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
85 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
86 generating debug output.
87
88 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
89 xml when it generates xml output.
90
91 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
92 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
93 repository implementation.
94 mike 1.51
95 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
96
97 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
98
99 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
100
101 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
102
103 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.
104
105 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
106 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
107
108 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
109
110 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.
111
112 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
113
114 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
115 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
116 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
117
118 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
119 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
120 input and output can be written in a trace file.
121
122 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
123 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
124 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
125
126 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
127 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
128 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
129 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
130 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
131 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
132 are modified to implement above messages.
133
134 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
135 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
136 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
137 indication to consumer. This program needs
138 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
139 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
140 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
141 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
142 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
143 below:
144
145 //====================================================================
146 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
147 //====================================================================
148 [Description (
149 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
150 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
151 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
152
153 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
154 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
155 a provider library.
156
157 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
158 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
159 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
160 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
161 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
162 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
163 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
164 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
165 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
166 later).
167
168 Also added are two test programs:
169
170 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
171 CIMParamValue class.
172
173 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
174 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
175 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
176 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
177 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
178 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
179
180 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
181 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
182 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
183 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
184 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
185 and to verify the authentication.
186
187 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
188 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
189 yet linked into the build.
190
191 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
192 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
193 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
194 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
195 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
196 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
197 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
198
199 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
200 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
201 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
202 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
203 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
204 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
205 provider file path name.
206
207 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
208 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
209 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
210 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
211 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
212 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
213 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
214 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
215
216 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
217 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
218 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
219 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
220 mike 1.51
221 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
222 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
223 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
224 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
225
226 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
227 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
228 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
229 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
230 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
231 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
232 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
233 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
234 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
235
236 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
237 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
238
239 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
240
241 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
242 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
243 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
244 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
245 in make files.
246
247 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
248 because getting an error in 26
249
250 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
251 whose types are references. These reference values must be
252 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
253 tag structure.
254
255 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
256 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
257 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
258
259 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
260 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
261 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
262 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
263 of String type and a key of reference type.
264
265 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
266 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
267 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
268 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
269 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
270 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
271 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
272 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
273
274 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
275 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
276 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
277 reference type.
278
279 In this example:
280
281 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
282
283 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
284 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
285 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
286 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
287 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
288
289 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
290 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
291 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
292 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
293 correctly.
294
295 The files that have been modified to make this change are
296 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
297
298 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
299 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
300 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
301 CIMOM version.
302
303 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
304 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
305 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
306 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
307 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
308 definition to determine the key property types.
309
310 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
311 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
312 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
313 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
314
315 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
316 (instanceName).
317
318 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
319 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
320 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
321 relevant intrinsic methods.
322
323 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
324 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
325 mike 1.51
326 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
327 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
328 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
329 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
330 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
331 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
332 nsk platform links.
333
334 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
335 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
336 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
337 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
338 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
339 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
340 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
341
342 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
343 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
344 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
345 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
346 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
347 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
348 in that same form, without special character encoding.
349
350 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
351 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
352 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
353 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
354
355 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
356 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
357 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
358 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
359 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
360
361 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
362 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
363 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
364 be updated to use this class.
365
366 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
367 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
368 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
369 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
370 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
371
372 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
373 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
374 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
375 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
376 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
377 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
378
379 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
380
381 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
382 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
383 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
384 CIMNamedInstance
385 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
386 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
387 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
388 mike 1.51
389 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
390
391 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
392 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
393 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
394 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
395 functionality.
396
397 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
398
399 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
400 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
401 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
402 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
403 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
404 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
405 the entire instance.
406
407 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
408 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
409 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
410
411 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
412 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
413 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
414
415 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
416 ModifyInstance correctly.
417
418 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
419 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
420 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
421 the DMTF specification.
422
423 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
424 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
425 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
426 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
427
428 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
429
430 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
431 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
432 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
433 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
434 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
435 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
436 the entire instance.
437
438 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
439 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
440 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
441 be used to update the instance.
442
443 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
444 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
445 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
446
447 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
448 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
449 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
450
451 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
452 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
453 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
454 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
455 without the standard (std) namespace.
456
457 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
458 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
459 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
460
461 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
462 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
463 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
464 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
465 following command before starting cimserver:
466
467 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
468
469 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
470 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
471 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
472 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
473 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
474 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
475 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
476
477 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
478 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
479 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
480
481 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
482 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
483 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
484 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
485 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
486
487 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
488 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
489 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
490 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
491 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
492 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
493 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
494
495 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
496 Security components for authentication and authorization.
497
498 Authentication and User Management:
499 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
500 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
501 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
502 generated password file.
503
504 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
505 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
506
507 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
508 management and authorization functionality.
509
510 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
511 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
512
513 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
514 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
515 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
516
517 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
518 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
519 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
520
521 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
522 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
523 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
524 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
525 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
526 or change in provider registration.
527
528 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
529 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
530 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
531 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
532
533 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
534 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
535 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
536 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
537 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
538 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
539 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
540 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
541 How to use it in a Server or Client:
542 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
543 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
544 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
545 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
546 mike 1.50
|
547 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
548 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
549
550 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.
551
552 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
553 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch
554 Tagged as version_1_01 on 3 August 2001 (sorry should have been
555 1.1
556
557 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
558 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
559 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
560
561 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
562 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
563
564 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
565 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
566
567 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
568 mike 1.51 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
569 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
570 and SimpleThread.
571
572 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
573 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
574 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
575 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
576 the test script.
577
578 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
579 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
580 and
581 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
582 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
583 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
584
585 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
586 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
587 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
588 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
589 mike 1.51 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
590 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
591 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
592 information on running the test script.
593
594 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
595 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
596 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
597
598 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
599 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
600 that
601 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
602 password.
603 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
604 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
605 build.
606 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
607 modified to integrate with the framework.

633
|
634 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages.
635
636 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps
637 ids to queue pointers).
638
|

660 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
661 karl 1.16
662 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
663 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
664 mike 1.26
|
665 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
666 5988.
667 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
668 the DMTF.
|
669 mike 1.26
|
670 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
671 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
672 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
673 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
674 mike 1.26
|
675 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
676 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
677 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
678 mike 1.26
|
679 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
680 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
681 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
682 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
683 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
684 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
685 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
686 mike 1.26
|
687 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
688 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
689 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
690 mike 1.26
|
691 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
692 mike 1.26
|
693 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
694 modifyClass,
|
695 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
696 mike 1.26
|
697 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
698 directory. These
699 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
700 CIMProviderStub has
|
701 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
702 mike 1.26
|
703 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
704 mike 1.26
|
705 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
706 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
707 mike 1.26
708 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
709 mike 1.27 (MEB)
710
711 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
712 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
713 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
714 Need to handle deleteInstance().
715 (MEB)
|
716 mike 1.26
|
717 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
718
|
719 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
720 AssociationName
|
721 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
722 pages.
723
|
724 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
725 sage 1.31
726 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
727 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
728 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
729 variables.
|
730 mike 1.32
731 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
732 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
733 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
734 kumpf 1.34
735 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
736 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
737 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
738 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
739 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
740 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
741 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
742 karl 1.35
743 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
744 tests for stack and queue.

793 1. Extend HP UX port to correctly load Dynamic Load Libraries.
794 2. Extend Formatter for Boolean and Uint32 types.
795 3. Change CIM Server to use Trace (-t) flag. This also changed
796 Handler.h to work off of flag.
797 4. Minor corrections to __Namespace Provider.
798 5. Extend tests for Formatter, String, and other modules.
799 6. Correct errors in documentation.

820 karl 1.1
821 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
822 qualifiers, methods.
823 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
824 methods.
825 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
826 qualifiers and to
827 remove qualifiers.
828 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
829 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
830 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
831 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
832 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
833 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
834 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
