4 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002
5 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc.
6 TAG: VERSION_1_07
7
8 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file.

11 karl 1.59
|
12 karl 1.62 3. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
13 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
14 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
15 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
16 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
17 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.

20 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
21
22 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
23 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
24 may temporarily be in side branches.
25 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
26 karl 1.53
27 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
28 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
29 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
30 which is the current file based repository.
31
32 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
33 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
34 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
35 in the future.
|
36 karl 1.52
|
37 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
38 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
39 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
40 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
41 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
42 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
43
|
44 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
45 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
46 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
47 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
48 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
49 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
50
|
51 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
52 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
53 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
54 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
55 program.
56
|
57 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
58 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
59 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
60 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
61 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
62 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
63 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
64 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
65 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
66
67 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
68 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
69 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
70
71 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
72 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
73 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
74 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
75
76 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
77 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
78 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
79 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
80
81 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
82 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
83
84 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

91 karl 1.49 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
92 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
93
|
94 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
95 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
96
97 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
98 mike 1.51 =======
99 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
100 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
101
102 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
103 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
104 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
105 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
106 should not affect any current work.
107 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
108 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
109 loads the 2.5 schema.
110
111 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
112 on XML output.
113
114 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
115 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
116 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
117 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
118 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
119 mike 1.51
120 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
121 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
122 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
123 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
124 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
125 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
126 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
127 to show user friendly error/status messages.
128
129 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
130 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
131 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
132 generating debug output.
133
134 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
135 xml when it generates xml output.
136
137 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
138 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
139 repository implementation.
140 mike 1.51
141 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
142
143 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
144
145 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
146
147 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
148
149 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.
150
151 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
152 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
153
154 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
155
156 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.
157
158 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
159
160 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
161 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
162 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
163
164 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
165 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
166 input and output can be written in a trace file.
167
168 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
169 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
170 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
171
172 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
173 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
174 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
175 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
176 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
177 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
178 are modified to implement above messages.
179
180 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
181 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
182 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
183 indication to consumer. This program needs
184 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
185 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
186 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
187 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
188 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
189 below:
190
191 //====================================================================
192 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
193 //====================================================================
194 [Description (
195 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
196 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
197 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
198
199 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
200 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
201 a provider library.
202
203 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
204 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
205 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
206 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
207 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
208 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
209 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
210 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
211 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
212 later).
213
214 Also added are two test programs:
215
216 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
217 CIMParamValue class.
218
219 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
220 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
221 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
222 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
223 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
224 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
225
226 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
227 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
228 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
229 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
230 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
231 and to verify the authentication.
232
233 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
234 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
235 yet linked into the build.
236
237 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
238 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
239 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
240 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
241 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
242 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
243 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
244
245 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
246 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
247 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
248 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
249 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
250 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
251 provider file path name.
252
253 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
254 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
255 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
256 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
257 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
258 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
259 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
260 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
261
262 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
263 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
264 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
265 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
266 mike 1.51
267 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
268 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
269 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
270 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
271
272 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
273 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
274 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
275 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
276 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
277 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
278 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
279 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
280 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
281
282 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
283 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
284
285 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
286
287 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
288 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
289 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
290 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
291 in make files.
292
293 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
294 because getting an error in 26
295
296 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
297 whose types are references. These reference values must be
298 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
299 tag structure.
300
301 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
302 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
303 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
304
305 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
306 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
307 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
308 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
309 of String type and a key of reference type.
310
311 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
312 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
313 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
314 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
315 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
316 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
317 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
318 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
319
320 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
321 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
322 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
323 reference type.
324
325 In this example:
326
327 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
328
329 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
330 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
331 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
332 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
333 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
334
335 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
336 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
337 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
338 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
339 correctly.
340
341 The files that have been modified to make this change are
342 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
343
344 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
345 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
346 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
347 CIMOM version.
348
349 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
350 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
351 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
352 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
353 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
354 definition to determine the key property types.
355
356 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
357 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
358 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
359 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
360
361 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
362 (instanceName).
363
364 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
365 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
366 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
367 relevant intrinsic methods.
368
369 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
370 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
371 mike 1.51
372 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
373 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
374 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
375 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
376 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
377 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
378 nsk platform links.
379
380 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
381 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
382 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
383 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
384 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
385 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
386 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
387
388 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
389 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
390 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
391 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
392 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
393 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
394 in that same form, without special character encoding.
395
396 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
397 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
398 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
399 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
400
401 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
402 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
403 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
404 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
405 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
406
407 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
408 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
409 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
410 be updated to use this class.
411
412 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
413 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
414 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
415 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
416 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
417
418 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
419 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
420 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
421 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
422 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
423 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
424
425 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
426
427 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
428 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
429 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
430 CIMNamedInstance
431 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
432 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
433 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
434 mike 1.51
435 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
436
437 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
438 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
439 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
440 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
441 functionality.
442
443 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
444
445 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
446 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
447 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
448 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
449 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
450 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
451 the entire instance.
452
453 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
454 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
455 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
456
457 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
458 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
459 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
460
461 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
462 ModifyInstance correctly.
463
464 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
465 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
466 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
467 the DMTF specification.
468
469 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
470 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
471 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
472 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
473
474 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
475
476 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
477 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
478 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
479 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
480 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
481 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
482 the entire instance.
483
484 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
485 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
486 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
487 be used to update the instance.
488
489 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
490 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
491 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
492
493 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
494 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
495 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
496
497 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
498 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
499 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
500 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
501 without the standard (std) namespace.
502
503 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
504 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
505 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
506
507 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
508 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
509 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
510 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
511 following command before starting cimserver:
512
513 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
514
515 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
516 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
517 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
518 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
519 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
520 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
521 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
522
523 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
524 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
525 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
526
527 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
528 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
529 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
530 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
531 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
532
533 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
534 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
535 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
536 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
537 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
538 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
539 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
540
541 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
542 Security components for authentication and authorization.
543
544 Authentication and User Management:
545 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
546 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
547 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
548 generated password file.
549
550 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
551 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
552
553 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
554 management and authorization functionality.
555
556 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
557 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
558
559 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
560 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
561 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
562
563 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
564 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
565 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
566
567 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
568 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
569 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
570 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
571 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
572 or change in provider registration.
573
574 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
575 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
576 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
577 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
578
579 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
580 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
581 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
582 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
583 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
584 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
585 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
586 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
587 How to use it in a Server or Client:
588 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
589 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
590 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
591 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
592 mike 1.50
|
593 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
594 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
595
596 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.
597
|
598 kumpf 1.61 61. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2001 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
599 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
600 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
601 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
602 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
603 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
604 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
605
606 For more information look in to the following files:
607 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h

618 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
619 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
620
621 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
622 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
623
624 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
625 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
626
627 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
628 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
629 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
630 and SimpleThread.
631
632 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
633 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
634 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please

638 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
639 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
640 and
641 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
642 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
643 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
644
645 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
646 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
647 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
648 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
649 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
650 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
651 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
652 information on running the test script.
653
654 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
655 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
656 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
657
658 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
659 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
660 that
661 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
662 password.
663 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
664 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
665 build.
666 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
667 modified to integrate with the framework.

720 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
721 karl 1.16
722 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
723 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
724 mike 1.26
|
725 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
726 5988.
727 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
728 the DMTF.
|
729 mike 1.26
|
730 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
731 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
732 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
733 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
734 mike 1.26
|
735 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
736 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
737 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
738 mike 1.26
|
739 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
740 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
741 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
742 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
743 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
744 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
745 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
746 mike 1.26
|
747 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
748 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
749 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
750 mike 1.26
|
751 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
752 mike 1.26
|
753 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
754 modifyClass,
|
755 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
756 mike 1.26
|
757 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
758 directory. These
759 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
760 CIMProviderStub has
|
761 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
762 mike 1.26
|
763 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
764 mike 1.26
|
765 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
766 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
767 mike 1.26
768 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
769 mike 1.27 (MEB)
770
771 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
772 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
773 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
774 Need to handle deleteInstance().
775 (MEB)
|
776 mike 1.26
|
777 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
778
|
779 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
780 AssociationName
|
781 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
782 pages.
783
|
784 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
785 sage 1.31
786 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
787 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
788 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
789 variables.
|
790 mike 1.32
791 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
792 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
793 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
794 kumpf 1.34
795 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
796 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
797 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
798 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
799 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
800 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
801 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
802 karl 1.35
803 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
804 tests for stack and queue.

869 karl 1.3 1. Add PEG_NOT_FOUND symbol to replace Uint32(-1) in any of the object
870 find functions. Note: This symbol is defined in config.h. (ks).
871
|
872 karl 1.5 2. Port To HP UX. This required a number of changes particularly in the area

880 karl 1.1
881 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
882 qualifiers, methods.
883 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
884 methods.
885 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
886 qualifiers and to
887 remove qualifiers.
888 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
889 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
890 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
891 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
892 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
893 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
894 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
