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.
9
|
10 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
|
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.
|
18 karl 1.63
19 4. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
20 karl 1.62
|
21 karl 1.64 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
22 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.

24 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
25 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
26
27 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
28 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
29 may temporarily be in side branches.
30 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
31 karl 1.53
32 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
33 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
34 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
35 which is the current file based repository.
36
37 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
38 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
39 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
40 in the future.
|
41 karl 1.52
|
42 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
43 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
44 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
45 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
46 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
47 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
48
|
49 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
50 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
51 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
52 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
53 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
54 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
55
|
56 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
57 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
58 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
59 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
60 program.
61
|
62 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
63 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
64 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
65 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
66 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
67 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
68 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
69 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
70 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
71
72 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
73 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
74 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
75
76 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
77 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
78 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
79 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
80
81 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
82 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
83 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
84 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
85
86 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
87 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
88
89 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

96 karl 1.49 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
97 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
98
|
99 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
100 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
101
102 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
103 mike 1.51 =======
104 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
105 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
106
107 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
108 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
109 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
110 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
111 should not affect any current work.
112 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
113 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
114 loads the 2.5 schema.
115
116 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
117 on XML output.
118
119 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
120 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
121 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
122 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
123 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
124 mike 1.51
125 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
126 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
127 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
128 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
129 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
130 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
131 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
132 to show user friendly error/status messages.
133
134 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
135 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
136 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
137 generating debug output.
138
139 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
140 xml when it generates xml output.
141
142 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
143 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
144 repository implementation.
145 mike 1.51
146 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
147
148 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
149
150 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
151
152 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
153
154 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.
155
156 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
157 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
158
159 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
160
161 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.
162
163 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
164
165 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
166 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
167 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
168
169 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
170 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
171 input and output can be written in a trace file.
172
173 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
174 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
175 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
176
177 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
178 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
179 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
180 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
181 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
182 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
183 are modified to implement above messages.
184
185 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
186 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
187 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
188 indication to consumer. This program needs
189 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
190 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
191 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
192 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
193 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
194 below:
195
196 //====================================================================
197 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
198 //====================================================================
199 [Description (
200 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
201 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
202 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
203
204 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
205 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
206 a provider library.
207
208 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
209 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
210 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
211 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
212 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
213 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
214 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
215 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
216 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
217 later).
218
219 Also added are two test programs:
220
221 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
222 CIMParamValue class.
223
224 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
225 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
226 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
227 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
228 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
229 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
230
231 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
232 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
233 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
234 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
235 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
236 and to verify the authentication.
237
238 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
239 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
240 yet linked into the build.
241
242 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
243 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
244 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
245 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
246 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
247 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
248 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
249
250 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
251 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
252 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
253 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
254 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
255 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
256 provider file path name.
257
258 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
259 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
260 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
261 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
262 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
263 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
264 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
265 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
266
267 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
268 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
269 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
270 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
271 mike 1.51
272 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
273 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
274 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
275 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
276
277 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
278 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
279 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
280 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
281 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
282 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
283 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
284 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
285 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
286
287 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
288 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
289
290 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
291
292 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
293 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
294 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
295 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
296 in make files.
297
298 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
299 because getting an error in 26
300
301 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
302 whose types are references. These reference values must be
303 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
304 tag structure.
305
306 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
307 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
308 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
309
310 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
311 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
312 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
313 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
314 of String type and a key of reference type.
315
316 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
317 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
318 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
319 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
320 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
321 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
322 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
323 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
324
325 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
326 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
327 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
328 reference type.
329
330 In this example:
331
332 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
333
334 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
335 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
336 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
337 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
338 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
339
340 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
341 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
342 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
343 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
344 correctly.
345
346 The files that have been modified to make this change are
347 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
348
349 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
350 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
351 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
352 CIMOM version.
353
354 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
355 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
356 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
357 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
358 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
359 definition to determine the key property types.
360
361 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
362 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
363 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
364 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
365
366 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
367 (instanceName).
368
369 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
370 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
371 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
372 relevant intrinsic methods.
373
374 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
375 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
376 mike 1.51
377 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
378 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
379 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
380 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
381 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
382 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
383 nsk platform links.
384
385 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
386 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
387 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
388 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
389 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
390 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
391 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
392
393 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
394 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
395 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
396 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
397 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
398 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
399 in that same form, without special character encoding.
400
401 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
402 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
403 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
404 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
405
406 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
407 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
408 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
409 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
410 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
411
412 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
413 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
414 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
415 be updated to use this class.
416
417 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
418 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
419 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
420 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
421 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
422
423 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
424 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
425 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
426 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
427 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
428 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
429
430 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
431
432 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
433 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
434 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
435 CIMNamedInstance
436 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
437 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
438 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
439 mike 1.51
440 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
441
442 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
443 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
444 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
445 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
446 functionality.
447
448 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
449
450 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
451 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
452 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
453 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
454 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
455 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
456 the entire instance.
457
458 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
459 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
460 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
461
462 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
463 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
464 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
465
466 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
467 ModifyInstance correctly.
468
469 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
470 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
471 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
472 the DMTF specification.
473
474 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
475 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
476 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
477 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
478
479 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
480
481 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
482 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
483 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
484 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
485 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
486 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
487 the entire instance.
488
489 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
490 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
491 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
492 be used to update the instance.
493
494 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
495 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
496 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
497
498 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
499 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
500 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
501
502 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
503 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
504 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
505 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
506 without the standard (std) namespace.
507
508 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
509 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
510 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
511
512 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
513 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
514 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
515 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
516 following command before starting cimserver:
517
518 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
519
520 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
521 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
522 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
523 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
524 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
525 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
526 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
527
528 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
529 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
530 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
531
532 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
533 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
534 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
535 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
536 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
537
538 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
539 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
540 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
541 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
542 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
543 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
544 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
545
546 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
547 Security components for authentication and authorization.
548
549 Authentication and User Management:
550 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
551 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
552 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
553 generated password file.
554
555 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
556 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
557
558 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
559 management and authorization functionality.
560
561 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
562 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
563
564 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
565 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
566 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
567
568 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
569 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
570 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
571
572 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
573 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
574 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
575 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
576 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
577 or change in provider registration.
578
579 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
580 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
581 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
582 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
583
584 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
585 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
586 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
587 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
588 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
589 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
590 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
591 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
592 How to use it in a Server or Client:
593 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
594 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
595 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
596 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
597 mike 1.50
|
598 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
599 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
600
601 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.
602
|
603 kumpf 1.61 61. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2001 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
604 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
605 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
606 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
607 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
608 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
609 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
610
611 For more information look in to the following files:
612 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h

623 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
624 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
625
626 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
627 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
628
629 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
630 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
631
632 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
633 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
634 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
635 and SimpleThread.
636
637 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer

655 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
656 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
657 information on running the test script.
658
659 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
660 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
661 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
662
663 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
664 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
665 that
666 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
667 password.
668 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
669 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
670 build.
671 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
672 modified to integrate with the framework.

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

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