29 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner
30 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository
31 location, Provider location and Consumer location.
32 The default location for these properties continue to be the same
33 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the
34 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to
35 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home.
36
37 For more information look in to the following files:
38 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h
39 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp
40 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h
41 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp
42
43 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
|
44 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only
45 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF
46 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL.
47 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when
48 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
|
49 karl 1.63
|
50 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
|
51 karl 1.62
|
52 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
|
53 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work.
54
|
55 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
|
56 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal()
57 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system
58 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use
59 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface.
60
|
61 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
|
62 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and
63 will be deleted.
64
|
65 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests
66
67 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
|
68 karl 1.66
|
69 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented
70 checks for privileged user when performing authorization.
71 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess.
72 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access
73 for remote clients.
|
74 karl 1.66
|
75 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic
76 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition
77 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag
78 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without
79 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows
80 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return
81 values.
82
83 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS:
84
85 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input
86 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type
87 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method
88 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input
89 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client
90 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema).
91
92 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client
93 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation
94 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters
95 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition.
96 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the
97 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider
98 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not
99 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type
100 specified in the method definition.
101
102 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS:
103
104 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are
105 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE
106 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type
107 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of
108 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the
109 correct type rather than as a String.
110
111 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the
112 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a
113 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type
114 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit
115 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return
116 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get,
117 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues.
118
119 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through
120 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other
121 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute.
122
123 SIDE EFFECTS:
124
125 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered
126 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of
127 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method
128 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've
129 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class.
130
131 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant
132 clean-up, which I completed.
133
134 SETPROPERTY CHANGES:
135
136 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by
137 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor
138 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the
139 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting
140 the specified value to that property's type.
141
142 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate
143 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this
144 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using
145 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty.
146
147 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type
148 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will
149 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty
150 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties
151 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with
152 a property list) rather than GetProperty.
153
|
154 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class.
155 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this
156 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue.
157 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray,
158 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue.
159 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML
160 encoding of parameter values.
161
162 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the
163 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped()
164 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from
165 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they
166 have defaulted to String type.

167 karl 1.70
168 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code.
169 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
|
170 karl 1.72
|
171 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept
172 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new
173 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server
174 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from
175 the server.
|
176 karl 1.72
177 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up
178 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6.
179
|
180 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager
181 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and
182 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances
183 operations.
184
185 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
|
186 karl 1.74
187 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the
188 definition of CIMFlavors.
|
189 karl 1.76
|
190 kumpf 1.68
|
191 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to
192 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the
193 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at
194 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there
195 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top
196 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message
197 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods.
198
199 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML
200 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the
201 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be
202 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to
203 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional
204 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class
205 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in
206 a single buffer.
207
208 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML
209 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also,
210 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the
211 various encoders and decoders, etc.
212 kumpf 1.75
213 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the
214 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate
215 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent
216 with what is encoded in the XML request itself.
217
218 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod,
219 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are
220 validated.
|
221 karl 1.76
222 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in
223 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the
224 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
|
225 karl 1.78
|
226 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction.
227 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using:
228
229 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor;
230 HTTPConnector* connector;
231 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor);
232 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
233
234 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis);
235
236 With this change, the client application now looks like:
237
238 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional
239
240 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis);
241
242 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector
243 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a
244 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL
245 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient
246 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and
247 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector
248 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method
249 rather than in the constructor.
250
251 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this
252 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and
253 included in the Pegasus build.
|
254 kumpf 1.79
|
255 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field
256 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
|
257 kumpf 1.75
|
258 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT
259 include the source filename and line number in the exception message.
260 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the
261 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used
262 for that purpose.
263
264 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class:
265
266 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer.
267 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException
268 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the
269 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the
270 line number of the CIMException originator.
271
272 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException);
273
274 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class:
275 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as
276 input and writes the String to the trace file.
277
278 (ex.)
279 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call:
280 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
281
282 or use the following new macro:
283 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed.");
284
|
285 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
|
286 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added
287 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in
288 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator.
289 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first
290 operator to be "OR"ed.
|
291 ramnath 1.81
292 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that
293 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances
294 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and
295 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file
296 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a
297 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef
298 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in
299 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
|
300 ramnath 1.80
|
301 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once
302 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could
303 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly
304 in the Windows service work thread.
305
|
306 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a
307 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof)
308 executable
309
310 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository
311 executable.
|
312 kumpf 1.84
313 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and
314 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of
315 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An
316 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into
317 an integer of the specified size.
318
|
319 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers
320 in XmlReader.cpp.
321
|
322 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic
323 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication
324 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified
325 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes.
326
|
327 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "| ios::binary"
328 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
|
329 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
|
330 karl 1.88
331 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad
332 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before.
333
|
334 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation
335 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and
336 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the
337 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the
338 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control
339 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the
340 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically
341 linked into the server.
|
342 karl 1.88
|
343 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with
344 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider
345 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree.
346
|
347 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the
348 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control
349 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus
350 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the
351 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
|
352 karl 1.92
353 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to
354 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their
355 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc.
356

357 kumpf 1.91
|
358 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
359 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001
360
361 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch
362 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments
363 may temporarily be in side branches.
364 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
|
365 karl 1.53
366 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository
367 implementations will be kept to separate them from the
368 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile
369 which is the current file based repository.
370
371 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command
372 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER
373 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system
374 in the future.
|
375 karl 1.52
|
376 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder
377 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are
378 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER
379 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the
380 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a
381 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown.
382
|
383 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
|
384 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder
385 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create
386 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled.
387 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make
388 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.
389
|
390 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
|
391 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running
392 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver
393 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient
394 program.
395
|
396 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription,
397 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed
398 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher.
399 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
400 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
401 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
402 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE
403 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
404 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE
405
406 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving
407 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from
408 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear.
409
410 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration
411 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered.
412 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
413 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE
414
415 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication
416 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate
417 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a
418 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon.
419
420 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create
421 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService.
422
423 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

|
433 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating
434 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references).
435
436 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
|
437 mike 1.51 =======
438 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be
439 seen as part of CGIclient class displays.
440
441 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version
442 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor
443 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the
444 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change
445 should not affect any current work.
446 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas
447 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still
448 loads the 2.5 schema.
449
450 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers
451 on XML output.
452
453 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem
454 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,
455 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable
456 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple
457 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.
458 mike 1.51
459 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove
460 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the
461 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files
462 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that
463 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config
464 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified
465 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI
466 to show user friendly error/status messages.
467
468 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI
469 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).
470 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in
471 generating debug output.
472
473 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in
474 xml when it generates xml output.
475
476 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into
477 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default
478 repository implementation.
479 mike 1.51
480 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.
481
482 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.
483
484 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.
485
486 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.
487
488 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.
489
490 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.
491 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.
492
493 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.
494
495 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.
496
497 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.
498
499 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server
500 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with
501 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.
502
503 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files
504 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML
505 input and output can be written in a trace file.
506
507 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support
508 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and
509 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).
510
511 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and
512 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample
513 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the
514 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete
515 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and
516 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files
517 are modified to implement above messages.
518
519 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete
520 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication
521 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the
522 indication to consumer. This program needs
523 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof
524 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded
525 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test
526 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and
527 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as
528 below:
529
530 //====================================================================
531 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP
532 //====================================================================
533 [Description (
534 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "
535 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "
536 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]
537
538 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in
539 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading
540 a provider library.
541
542 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod
543 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as
544 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give
545 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed
546 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the
547 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod
548 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while
549 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of
550 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed
551 later).
552
553 Also added are two test programs:
554
555 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of
556 CIMParamValue class.
557
558 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to
559 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current
560 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value
561 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in
562 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)
563 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.
564
565 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of
566 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager
567 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication
568 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator
569 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests
570 and to verify the authentication.
571
572 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.
573 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not
574 yet linked into the build.
575
576 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export
577 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses
578 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send
579 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.
580 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the
581 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on
582 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.
583
584 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to
585 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the
586 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name
587 construction (appending .sl or .so) from
588 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to
589 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns
590 provider file path name.
591
592 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication
593 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class
594 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap
595 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.
596 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master
597 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.
598 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to
599 implement specific trap delivery mechanism.
600
601 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to
602 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating
603 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the
604 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.
605 mike 1.51
606 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer
607 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given
608 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.
609 Changed the config file defaults for tracing.
610
611 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq
612 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files
613 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,
614 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,
615 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered
616 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now
617 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and
618 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.
619 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.
620
621 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow
622 commas (,) in the string values of key properties.
623
624 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6
625
626 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in
627 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for
628 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced
629 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required
630 in make files.
631
632 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25
633 because getting an error in 26
634
635 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys
636 whose types are references. These reference values must be
637 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE
638 tag structure.
639
640 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.
641 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string
642 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.
643
644 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and
645 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the
646 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required
647 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key
648 of String type and a key of reference type.
649
650 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to
651 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of
652 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for
653 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it
654 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up
655 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the
656 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal
657 transformations between CIMReferences and String values.
658
659 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value
660 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows
661 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or
662 reference type.
663
664 In this example:
665
666 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"
667
668 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets
669 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'
670 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is
671 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,
672 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.
673
674 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new
675 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a
676 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must
677 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave
678 correctly.
679
680 The files that have been modified to make this change are
681 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.
682
683 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance
684 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will
685 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest
686 CIMOM version.
687
688 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance
689 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association
690 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and
691 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need
692 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class
693 definition to determine the key property types.
694
695 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components
696 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner
697 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with
698 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.
699
700 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference
701 (instanceName).
702
703 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of
704 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.
705 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all
706 relevant intrinsic methods.
707
708 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase
709 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp
710 mike 1.51
711 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following
712 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,
713 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,
714 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of
715 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files
716 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include
717 nsk platform links.
718
719 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue
720 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior
721 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters
722 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b
723 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the
724 String value directly with no translation. (Note that
725 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)
726
727 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the
728 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by
729 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to
730 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name
731 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to
732 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name
733 in that same form, without special character encoding.
734
735 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to
736 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),
737 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().
738 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.
739
740 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function
741 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class
742 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the
743 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.
744 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.
745
746 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class
747 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values
748 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to
749 be updated to use this class.
750
751 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line
752 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing
753 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider
754 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function
755 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.
756
757 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on
758 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate
759 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.
760 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send
761 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation
762 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.
763
764 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:
765
766 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>
767 to Array<CIMNamedInstance>
768 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to
769 CIMNamedInstance
770 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance
771 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the
772 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>
773 mike 1.51
774 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.
775
776 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider
777 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the
778 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.
779 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added
780 functionality.
781
782 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:
783
784 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
785 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
786 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
787 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
788 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
789 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
790 the entire instance.
791
792 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
793 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
794 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
795
796 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the
797 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows
798 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.
799
800 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in
801 ModifyInstance correctly.
802
803 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance
804 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and
805 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with
806 the DMTF specification.
807
808 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no
809 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will
810 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity
811 to take advantage of the features that have been added.
812
813 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:
814
815 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which
816 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the
817 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the
818 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by
819 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of
820 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace
821 the entire instance.
822
823 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance
824 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is
825 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not
826 be used to update the instance.
827
828 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with
829 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive
830 these instance names, as the standard dictates.
831
832 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.
833 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw
834 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.
835
836 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,
837 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to
838 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK
839 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation
840 without the standard (std) namespace.
841
842 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration
843 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:
844 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.
845
846 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the
847 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default
848 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To
849 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the
850 following command before starting cimserver:
851
852 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p
853
854 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what
855 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a
856 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve
857 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set
858 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the
859 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a
860 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.
861
862 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to
863 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides
864 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.
865
866 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in
867 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and
868 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository
869 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now
870 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.
871
872 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and
873 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and
874 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers
875 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new
876 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty
877 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only
878 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.
879
880 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the
881 Security components for authentication and authorization.
882
883 Authentication and User Management:
884 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal
885 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored
886 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd
887 generated password file.
888
889 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting
890 to add/remove/list user authorizations.
891
892 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user
893 management and authorization functionality.
894
895 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory
896 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.
897
898 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider
899 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.
900 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.
901
902 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h
903 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the
904 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.
905
906 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication
907 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the
908 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler
909 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action
910 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,
911 or change in provider registration.
912
913 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service
914 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.

918 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).
919 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined
920 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional
921 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context
922 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an
923 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences
924 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class
925 is defined even in a non-ssl environment.
926 How to use it in a Server or Client:
927 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space
928 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this
929 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors
930 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
|
931 mike 1.50
|
932 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and
933 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.
934
935 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

938 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch
939 Tagged as version_1_01 on 3 August 2001 (sorry should have been
940 1.1
941
942 1. (Nitin Upasani - HP) Implementation of handleIndication() to deliver
943 indication by defining IndicationDispatcher, HandlerTable, CIMHandler
944 and ExportClient classes. the indication.
945
946 Also implemented CIMxmlIndicationHandler and sendmailIndicationHandler to
947 make the delivery of indications over Xml-HTTP and email respectively.
948
949 Provided examples for HandlerTable, XmlIndicationDelivery and
950 SendMailIndicationDelivery to support this implementation.
951
952 2. (Markus Mueller - IBM) Implementation of a Linux specific threading
953 library and a thread-safe message queue (first stage). Classes defined
954 are Mutex, Condition, Semaphore, AtomicInt, ReadWriteSem, cleanup_handler
955 and SimpleThread.
956
957 3. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) Implementation of wbemexec CLI. Please refer
958 mike 1.51 to the man page in pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/doc/wbemexec.html for more
959 information on using wbemexec. A simple test script is included. Please
960 see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for information on running
961 the test script.
962
963 4. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Implementation of Trace Framework. Please
964 refer to the documentation in src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingDevGuide.pdf
965 and
966 src/Pegasus/Common/doc/TracingUserGuide.pdf for more information on using
967 the Trace framework. Classes defined are src/Pegasus/Common/Tracer.cpp and
968 src/Pegasus/Common/TraceFileHandler.cpp.
969
970 5. (Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and
971 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation
972 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page
973 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on
974 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config
975 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script
976 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for
977 information on running the test script.
978
979 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects
980 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These
981 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects.
982
983 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local
984 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients
985 that
986 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a
987 password.
988 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design.
989 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main
990 build.
991 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be
992 modified to integrate with the framework.

1045 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
|
1046 karl 1.16
1047 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe
1048 for NT and Linux platforms.
|
1049 mike 1.26
|
1050 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to
1051 5988.
1052 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by
1053 the DMTF.
|
1054 mike 1.26
|
1055 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF
1056 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from
1057 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b).
1058 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
|
1059 mike 1.26
|
1060 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp
1061 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in
1062 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
|
1063 mike 1.26
|
1064 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified
1065 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp.
1066 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser
1067 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should
1068 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome
1069 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
|
1070 bob 1.20 (grb)
|
1071 mike 1.26
|
1072 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes.
1073 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler
1074 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
|
1075 mike 1.26
|
1076 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
|
1077 mike 1.26
|
1078 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance,
1079 modifyClass,
|
1080 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
|
1081 mike 1.26
|
1082 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2
1083 directory. These
1084 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations.
1085 CIMProviderStub has
|
1086 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
|
1087 mike 1.26
|
1088 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
|
1089 mike 1.26
|
1090 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild
1091 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
|
1092 mike 1.26
1093 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
|
1094 mike 1.27 (MEB)
1095
1096 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported).
1097 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still.
1098 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations).
1099 Need to handle deleteInstance().
1100 (MEB)
|
1101 mike 1.26
|
1102 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD)
1103
|
1104 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install
1105 AssociationName
|
1106 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML
1107 pages.
1108
|
1109 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
|
1110 sage 1.31
1111 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed
1112 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB).
1113 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment
1114 variables.
|
1115 mike 1.32
1116 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(),
1117 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate
1118 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
|
1119 kumpf 1.34
1120 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support
1121 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries
1122 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest
1123 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific
1124 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile
1125 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of
1126 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
|
1127 karl 1.35
1128 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added
1129 tests for stack and queue.

1205 karl 1.1
1206 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties,
1207 qualifiers, methods.
1208 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier,
1209 methods.
1210 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of
1211 qualifiers and to
1212 remove qualifiers.
1213 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX
1214 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
|
1215 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large
1216 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future
1217 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate
1218 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested
1219 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
