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.
23
|
24 kumpf 1.65 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
25 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
26 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
27 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
28 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
29
|
30 karl 1.66 7. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
31 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
32 will be deleted.
33
34 8. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
35
36 9. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
37

38 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
39 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
40
41 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
42 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
43 may temporarily be in side branches.
44 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
45 karl 1.53
46 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
47 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
48 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
49 which is the current file based repository.
50
51 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
52 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
53 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
54 in the future.
|
55 karl 1.52
|
56 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
57 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
58 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
59 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
60 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
61 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
62
|
63 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
64 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
65 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
66 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
67 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
68 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
69
|
70 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
71 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
72 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
73 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
74 program.
75
|
76 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
77 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
78 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
79 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
80 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
81 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
82 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
83 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
84 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
85
86 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
87 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
88 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
89
90 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
91 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
92 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
93 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
94
95 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
96 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
97 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
98 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
99
100 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
101 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
102
103 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

110 karl 1.49 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
111 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress)
112
|
113 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
114 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
115
116 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
117 mike 1.51 =======
118 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
119 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
120
121 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
122 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
123 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
124 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
125 should not affect any current work.
126 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
127 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
128 loads the 2.5 schema.
129
130 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
131 on XML output.
132
133 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
134 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
135 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
136 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
137 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
138 mike 1.51
139 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
140 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
141 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
142 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
143 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
144 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
145 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
146 to show user friendly error/status messages.
147
148 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
149 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
150 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
151 generating debug output.
152
153 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
154 xml when it generates xml output.
155
156 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
157 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
158 repository implementation.
159 mike 1.51
160 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
161
162 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
163
164 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
165
166 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
167
168 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.
169
170 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
171 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
172
173 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
174
175 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.
176
177 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
178
179 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
180 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
181 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
182
183 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
184 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
185 input and output can be written in a trace file.
186
187 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
188 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
189 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
190
191 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
192 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
193 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
194 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
195 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
196 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
197 are modified to implement above messages.
198
199 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
200 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
201 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
202 indication to consumer. This program needs
203 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
204 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
205 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
206 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
207 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
208 below:
209
210 //====================================================================
211 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
212 //====================================================================
213 [Description (
214 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
215 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
216 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
217
218 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
219 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
220 a provider library.
221
222 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
223 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
224 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
225 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
226 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
227 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
228 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
229 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
230 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
231 later).
232
233 Also added are two test programs:
234
235 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
236 CIMParamValue class.
237
238 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
239 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
240 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
241 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
242 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
243 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
244
245 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
246 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
247 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
248 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
249 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
250 and to verify the authentication.
251
252 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
253 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
254 yet linked into the build.
255
256 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
257 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
258 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
259 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
260 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
261 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
262 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
263
264 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
265 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
266 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
267 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
268 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
269 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
270 provider file path name.
271
272 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
273 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
274 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
275 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
276 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
277 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
278 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
279 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
280
281 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
282 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
283 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
284 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
285 mike 1.51
286 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
287 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
288 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
289 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
290
291 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
292 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
293 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
294 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
295 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
296 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
297 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
298 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
299 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
300
301 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
302 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
303
304 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
305
306 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
307 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
308 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
309 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
310 in make files.
311
312 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
313 because getting an error in 26
314
315 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
316 whose types are references. These reference values must be
317 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
318 tag structure.
319
320 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
321 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
322 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
323
324 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
325 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
326 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
327 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
328 of String type and a key of reference type.
329
330 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
331 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
332 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
333 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
334 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
335 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
336 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
337 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
338
339 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
340 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
341 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
342 reference type.
343
344 In this example:
345
346 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
347
348 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
349 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
350 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
351 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
352 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
353
354 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
355 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
356 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
357 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
358 correctly.
359
360 The files that have been modified to make this change are
361 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
362
363 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
364 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
365 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
366 CIMOM version.
367
368 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
369 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
370 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
371 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
372 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
373 definition to determine the key property types.
374
375 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
376 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
377 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
378 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
379
380 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
381 (instanceName).
382
383 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
384 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
385 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
386 relevant intrinsic methods.
387
388 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
389 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
390 mike 1.51
391 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
392 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
393 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
394 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
395 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
396 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
397 nsk platform links.
398
399 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
400 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
401 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
402 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
403 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
404 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
405 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
406
407 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
408 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
409 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
410 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
411 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
412 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
413 in that same form, without special character encoding.
414
415 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
416 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
417 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
418 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
419
420 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
421 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
422 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
423 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
424 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
425
426 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
427 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
428 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
429 be updated to use this class.
430
431 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
432 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
433 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
434 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
435 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
436
437 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
438 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
439 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
440 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
441 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
442 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
443
444 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
445
446 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
447 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
448 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
449 CIMNamedInstance
450 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
451 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
452 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
453 mike 1.51
454 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
455
456 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
457 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
458 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
459 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
460 functionality.
461
462 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
463
464 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
465 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
466 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
467 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
468 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
469 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
470 the entire instance.
471
472 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
473 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
474 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
475
476 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
477 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
478 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
479
480 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
481 ModifyInstance correctly.
482
483 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
484 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
485 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
486 the DMTF specification.
487
488 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
489 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
490 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
491 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
492
493 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
494
495 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
496 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
497 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
498 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
499 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
500 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
501 the entire instance.
502
503 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
504 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
505 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
506 be used to update the instance.
507
508 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
509 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
510 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
511
512 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
513 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
514 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
515
516 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
517 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
518 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
519 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
520 without the standard (std) namespace.
521
522 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
523 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
524 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
525
526 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
527 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
528 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
529 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
530 following command before starting cimserver:
531
532 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
533
534 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
535 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
536 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
537 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
538 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
539 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
540 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
541
542 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
543 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
544 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
545
546 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
547 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
548 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
549 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
550 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
551
552 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
553 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
554 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
555 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
556 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
557 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
558 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
559
560 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
561 Security components for authentication and authorization.
562
563 Authentication and User Management:
564 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
565 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
566 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
567 generated password file.
568
569 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
570 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
571
572 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
573 management and authorization functionality.
574
575 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
576 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
577
578 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
579 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
580 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
581
582 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
583 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
584 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
585
586 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
587 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
588 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
589 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
590 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
591 or change in provider registration.
592
593 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
594 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.
595 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper
596 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.
597
598 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
599 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
600 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
601 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
602 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
603 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
604 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
605 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
606 How to use it in a Server or Client:
607 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
608 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
609 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
610 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
611 mike 1.50
|
612 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
613 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
614
615 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.
616
|
617 kumpf 1.61 61. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2001 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
618 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
619 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
620 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
621 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
622 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
623 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
624
625 For more information look in to the following files:
626 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h

671 information on running the test script.
672
673 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
674 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
675 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
676
677 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
678 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
679 that
680 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
681 password.
682 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
683 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
684 build.
685 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
686 modified to integrate with the framework.

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

905 qualifiers and to
906 remove qualifiers.
907 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
908 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
909 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
910 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
911 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
912 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
913 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
