1 karl 1.1 CHANGE LOG FOR PEGASUS
2 karl 1.59 3 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 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner 13 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository 14 location, Provider location and Consumer location. 15 The default location for these properties continue to be the same 16 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the 17 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to 18 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home. 19 20 For more information look in to the following files: 21 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h 22 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp 23 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h 24 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp 25 26 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
27 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only 28 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF 29 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL. 30 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when 31 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
32 karl 1.63
33 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
34 karl 1.62
35 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
36 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work. 37
38 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
39 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal() 40 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system 41 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use 42 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface. 43
44 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
45 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and 46 will be deleted. 47
48 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests 49 50 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
51 karl 1.66
52 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented 53 checks for privileged user when performing authorization. 54 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess. 55 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access 56 for remote clients.
57 karl 1.66
58 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic 59 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition 60 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag 61 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without 62 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows 63 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return 64 values. 65 66 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS: 67 68 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input 69 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type 70 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method 71 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input 72 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client 73 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema). 74 75 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client 76 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation 77 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters 78 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition. 79 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the 80 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider 81 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not 82 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type 83 specified in the method definition. 84 85 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS: 86 87 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are 88 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE 89 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type 90 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of 91 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the 92 correct type rather than as a String. 93 94 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the 95 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a 96 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type 97 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit 98 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return 99 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get, 100 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues. 101 102 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through 103 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other 104 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute. 105 106 SIDE EFFECTS: 107 108 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered 109 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of 110 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method 111 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've 112 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class. 113 114 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant 115 clean-up, which I completed. 116 117 SETPROPERTY CHANGES: 118 119 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by 120 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor 121 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the 122 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting 123 the specified value to that property's type. 124 125 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate 126 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this 127 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using 128 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty. 129 130 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type 131 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will 132 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty 133 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties 134 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with 135 a property list) rather than GetProperty. 136
137 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class. 138 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this 139 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue. 140 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray, 141 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue. 142 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML 143 encoding of parameter values. 144 145 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the 146 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped() 147 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from 148 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they 149 have defaulted to String type.
150 karl 1.70 151 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code. 152 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
153 karl 1.72
154 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept 155 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new 156 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server 157 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from 158 the server.
159 karl 1.72 160 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up 161 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6. 162
163 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager 164 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and 165 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances 166 operations. 167 168 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
169 karl 1.74 170 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the 171 definition of CIMFlavors.
172 kumpf 1.68
173 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
174 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001 175 176 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch 177 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments 178 may temporarily be in side branches. 179 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
180 karl 1.53 181 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository 182 implementations will be kept to separate them from the 183 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile 184 which is the current file based repository. 185 186 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command 187 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER 188 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system 189 in the future.
190 karl 1.52
191 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder 192 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are 193 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER 194 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the 195 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a 196 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown. 197
198 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
199 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder 200 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create 201 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled. 202 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make 203 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher. 204
205 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
206 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running 207 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver 208 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient 209 program. 210
211 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription, 212 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed 213 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher. 214 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 215 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 216 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 217 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 218 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE 219 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE 220 221 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving 222 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from 223 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear. 224 225 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration 226 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered. 227 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE 228 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE 229 230 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication 231 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate 232 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a 233 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon. 234 235 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create 236 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService. 237 238 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

242 mike 1.51 Version 1.1.1 - 3 August 2001 - Development Branch (Work in Progress) 243 current working dev branch of build
244 mike 1.36
245 karl 1.49 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 246 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress) 247
248 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating 249 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references). 250 251 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
252 mike 1.51 ======= 253 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be 254 seen as part of CGIclient class displays. 255 256 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version 257 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor 258 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the 259 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change 260 should not affect any current work. 261 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas 262 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still 263 loads the 2.5 schema. 264 265 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers 266 on XML output. 267 268 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem 269 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp, 270 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable 271 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple 272 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error. 273 mike 1.51 274 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove 275 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the 276 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files 277 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that 278 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config 279 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified 280 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI 281 to show user friendly error/status messages. 282 283 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI 284 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected). 285 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in 286 generating debug output. 287 288 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in 289 xml when it generates xml output. 290 291 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into 292 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default 293 repository implementation. 294 mike 1.51 295 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation. 296 297 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element. 298 299 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach. 300 301 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples. 302 303 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. 304 305 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules. 306 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder. 307 308 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete. 309 310 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. 311 312 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS. 313 314 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server 315 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with 316 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information. 317 318 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files 319 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML 320 input and output can be written in a trace file. 321 322 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support 323 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and 324 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !). 325 326 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and 327 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample 328 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the 329 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete 330 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and 331 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files 332 are modified to implement above messages. 333 334 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete 335 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication 336 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the 337 indication to consumer. This program needs 338 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof 339 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded 340 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test 341 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and 342 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as 343 below: 344 345 //==================================================================== 346 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP 347 //==================================================================== 348 [Description ( 349 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for " 350 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML " 351 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ] 352 353 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in 354 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading 355 a provider library. 356 357 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod 358 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as 359 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give 360 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed 361 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the 362 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod 363 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while 364 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of 365 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed 366 later). 367 368 Also added are two test programs: 369 370 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of 371 CIMParamValue class. 372 373 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to 374 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current 375 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value 376 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in 377 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality) 378 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client. 379 380 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of 381 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager 382 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication 383 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator 384 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests 385 and to verify the authentication. 386 387 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator. 388 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not 389 yet linked into the build. 390 391 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export 392 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses 393 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send 394 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall. 395 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the 396 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on 397 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully. 398 399 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to 400 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the 401 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name 402 construction (appending .sl or .so) from 403 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to 404 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns 405 provider file path name. 406 407 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication 408 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class 409 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap 410 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file. 411 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master 412 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism. 413 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to 414 implement specific trap delivery mechanism. 415 416 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to 417 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating 418 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the 419 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library. 420 mike 1.51 421 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer 422 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given 423 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface. 424 Changed the config file defaults for tracing. 425 426 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq 427 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files 428 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak, 429 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak, 430 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered 431 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now 432 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and 433 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files. 434 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak. 435 436 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow 437 commas (,) in the string values of key properties. 438 439 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6 440 441 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in 442 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for 443 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced 444 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required 445 in make files. 446 447 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25 448 because getting an error in 26 449 450 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys 451 whose types are references. These reference values must be 452 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE 453 tag structure. 454 455 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values. 456 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string 457 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs. 458 459 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and 460 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the 461 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required 462 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key 463 of String type and a key of reference type. 464 465 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to 466 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of 467 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for 468 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it 469 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up 470 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the 471 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal 472 transformations between CIMReferences and String values. 473 474 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value 475 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows 476 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or 477 reference type. 478 479 In this example: 480 481 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10" 482 483 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets 484 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R' 485 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is 486 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type, 487 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation. 488 489 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new 490 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a 491 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must 492 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave 493 correctly. 494 495 The files that have been modified to make this change are 496 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp. 497 498 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance 499 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will 500 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest 501 CIMOM version. 502 503 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance 504 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association 505 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and 506 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need 507 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class 508 definition to determine the key property types. 509 510 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components 511 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner 512 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with 513 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options. 514 515 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference 516 (instanceName). 517 518 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of 519 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages. 520 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all 521 relevant intrinsic methods. 522 523 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase 524 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp 525 mike 1.51 526 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following 527 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp, 528 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp, 529 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of 530 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files 531 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include 532 nsk platform links. 533 534 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue 535 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior 536 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters 537 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b 538 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the 539 String value directly with no translation. (Note that 540 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.) 541 542 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the 543 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by 544 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to 545 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name 546 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to 547 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name 548 in that same form, without special character encoding. 549 550 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to 551 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(), 552 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml(). 553 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers. 554 555 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function 556 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class 557 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the 558 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>. 559 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml. 560 561 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class 562 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values 563 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to 564 be updated to use this class. 565 566 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line 567 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing 568 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider 569 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function 570 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files. 571 572 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on 573 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate 574 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests. 575 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send 576 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation 577 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism. 578 579 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes: 580 581 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance> 582 to Array<CIMNamedInstance> 583 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to 584 CIMNamedInstance 585 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance 586 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the 587 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String> 588 mike 1.51 589 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification. 590 591 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider 592 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the 593 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function. 594 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added 595 functionality. 596 597 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible: 598 599 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which 600 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the 601 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the 602 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by 603 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of 604 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace 605 the entire instance. 606 607 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with 608 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive 609 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates. 610 611 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the 612 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows 613 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list. 614 615 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in 616 ModifyInstance correctly. 617 618 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance 619 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and 620 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with 621 the DMTF specification. 622 623 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no 624 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will 625 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity 626 to take advantage of the features that have been added. 627 628 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are: 629 630 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which 631 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the 632 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the 633 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by 634 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of 635 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace 636 the entire instance. 637 638 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance 639 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is 640 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not 641 be used to update the instance. 642 643 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with 644 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive 645 these instance names, as the standard dictates. 646 647 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated. 648 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw 649 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception. 650 651 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform, 652 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to 653 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK 654 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation 655 without the standard (std) namespace. 656 657 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration 658 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository: 659 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName. 660 661 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the 662 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default 663 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To 664 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the 665 following command before starting cimserver: 666 667 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p 668 669 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what 670 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a 671 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve 672 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set 673 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the 674 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a 675 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition. 676 677 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to 678 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides 679 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures. 680 681 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in 682 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and 683 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository 684 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now 685 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance. 686 687 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and 688 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and 689 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers 690 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new 691 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty 692 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only 693 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation. 694 695 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the 696 Security components for authentication and authorization. 697 698 Authentication and User Management: 699 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal 700 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored 701 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd 702 generated password file. 703 704 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting 705 to add/remove/list user authorizations. 706 707 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user 708 management and authorization functionality. 709 710 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory 711 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF. 712 713 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider 714 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider. 715 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes. 716 717 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h 718 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the 719 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file. 720 721 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication 722 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the 723 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler 724 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action 725 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider, 726 or change in provider registration. 727 728 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service 729 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully. 730 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper 731 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf. 732 733 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only). 734 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined 735 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional 736 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context 737 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an 738 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences 739 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class 740 is defined even in a non-ssl environment. 741 How to use it in a Server or Client: 742 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space 743 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this 744 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors 745 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
746 mike 1.50
747 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and 748 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag. 749 750 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

(Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver 758 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler 759 and ExportClient classes. the indication. 760 761 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to 762 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively. 763 764 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and 765 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation. 766 767 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading 768 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined 769 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler 770 and SimpleThread. 771 772 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer 773 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more 774 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please 775 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running 776 the test script. 777 778 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please 779 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf 780 and 781 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using 782 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and 783 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp. 784 785 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and 786 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation 787 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page 788 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on 789 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config 790 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script 791 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for 792 information on running the test script. 793 794 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects 795 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These 796 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects. 797 798 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local 799 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients 800 that 801 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a 802 password. 803 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design. 804 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main 805 build. 806 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be 807 modified to integrate with the framework.

820 mike 1.36
821 karl 1.38 1. (Mike Brasher) Added support for class association operations
822 mike 1.37 (references(), associators(), referenceNames(), associatorNames()). 823
824 kumpf 1.39 2. (Jenny Yu - HP) Fixed problem in CGIClient.cpp to handle double quotes 825 in the HTML URL reference for passing instance names. 826
827 mike 1.41 3. (Mike Brasher) Mass substitution to prepend CIM_ERR to CIM Status Codes. 828 829 4. (Mike Brasher) Added CIM Message types in preparation for qeueing. 830
831 kumpf 1.40 3. (Denise E. - HP) HP-UX specific changes to lslp-perl-linux,h and slp.h to 832 allow slp to compile. 833
834 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages. 835 836 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps 837 ids to queue pointers). 838
839 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler 840 and Dispatcher. 841
842 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher 843 and 844 CIMProvider to support both interfaces. Added CIMOMHandle and sample
845 chip 1.44 ResponseHandler for Provider2 interface.
846 mike 1.45 847 8. (Mike Brasher) - Replaced dispatcher with a queue-based dispatcher. 848 849 9. (Mike Brasher) - Retrofited CIMOMHandle to be queue-based. 850
851 mike 1.46 10. (Mike Brasher) - Changed CIMOMHandle to carry repository pointer. 852

859 mike 1.26
860 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
861 karl 1.16 862 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe 863 for NT and Linux platforms.
864 mike 1.26
865 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to 866 5988. 867 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by 868 the DMTF.
869 mike 1.26
870 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF 871 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from 872 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b). 873 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
874 mike 1.26
875 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp 876 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in 877 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
878 mike 1.26
879 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified 880 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp. 881 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser 882 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should 883 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome 884 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
885 bob 1.20 (grb)
886 mike 1.26
887 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes. 888 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler 889 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
890 mike 1.26
891 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
892 mike 1.26
893 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance, 894 modifyClass,
895 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
896 mike 1.26
897 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2 898 directory. These 899 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations. 900 CIMProviderStub has
901 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
902 mike 1.26
903 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
904 mike 1.26
905 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild 906 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
907 mike 1.26 908 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
909 mike 1.27 (MEB) 910 911 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported). 912 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still. 913 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations). 914 Need to handle deleteInstance(). 915 (MEB)
916 mike 1.26
917 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD) 918
919 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install 920 AssociationName
921 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML 922 pages. 923
924 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
925 sage 1.31 926 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed 927 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB). 928 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment 929 variables.
930 mike 1.32 931 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(), 932 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate 933 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
934 kumpf 1.34 935 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support 936 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries 937 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest 938 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific 939 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile 940 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of 941 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
942 karl 1.35 943 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added 944 tests for stack and queue.

1020 karl 1.1 1021 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties, 1022 qualifiers, methods. 1023 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier, 1024 methods. 1025 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of 1026 qualifiers and to 1027 remove qualifiers. 1028 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX 1029 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
1030 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large 1031 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future 1032 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate 1033 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested 1034 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
