1 karl 1.1 CHANGE LOG FOR PEGASUS
2 karl 1.59
3 karl 1.95 Version 1.09 - Started 5 April 2002 4 TAG: Version_1_09. 5 6 1. 5 April 2002 (KS) Update version to 1.09. TAG, and took snapshot. 7
8 kumpf 1.96 2. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Apr 2002 - Modified the CIMOperationResponseMessage 9 class and its subclasses to contain a CIMException instead of a 10 CIMStatusCode and String description. This allows extra information in 11 a CIMException, such as file name and line number, to be carried 12 internally throughout the system. 13 14 This change creates a single place where CIMExceptions are converted 15 to an error code and description to be written out in XML. This 16 single place controls the ability to tune what gets included in the 17 error description, as well as providing a convenient place to trace 18 errors that get returned to clients. In particular, client applications 19 currently see messages that contain redundant error code information, 20 such as: 21 22 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One or more parameter values passed 23 to the method were invalid: "CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER: One 24 or more parameter values passed to the method were invalid: 25 "Unrecognized parameter "Bogus""" 26 27 The CIMOperationResponseMessage change will allow the redundant 28 information to be eliminated from the messages. 29 kumpf 1.96
30 karl 1.95 ======================================================================== 31
32 karl 1.93 Version 1.08 working towards 1.1 - Started 27 March 2002
33 karl 1.94 TAG: Version_1_08. Note that the tagging was not all simultaneous because 34 of problems with the CVS repository
35 karl 1.93
36 karl 1.95 1. KS 27 March 2002 - Updaded pegasus version to 1.08. Took snapshot.
37 karl 1.93 Tagged CVS 1_08. 38
39 karl 1.94 2. KS 2 April 2002 -Add better qualifier testfunctions to cimclass, 40 qualifierlist, etc. and start to add specific qualifier tests on creates.
41 karl 1.93 ========================================================================
42 karl 1.59 43 Version 1.07 working towards 1.1 - Started 4 Feb 2002 44 Started just before cutover to the new dispatcher, etc. 45 TAG: VERSION_1_07 46 47 1. KS - Updated pegsusversion to 1.07 and tagged file. 48
49 sage 1.60 2. (Markus Mueller) 05 Feb 2002 - AIX support.
50 karl 1.59
51 kumpf 1.67 3. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 13 Feb 2002 Implemented FileSystemPropertyOwner 52 class to support PEGASUS_HOME dependent properties like Repository 53 location, Provider location and Consumer location. 54 The default location for these properties continue to be the same 55 as before. Added support to the Config Manager to own the 56 Pegasus Home variable and implemented method (getHomedPath) to 57 return absolute paths based from Pegasus Home. 58 59 For more information look in to the following files: 60 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.h 61 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/ConfigManager.cpp 62 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.h 63 pegasus/src/Pegasus/Config/FileSystemPropertyOwner.cpp 64 65 4. KS - 18 Feb 02 Add changes to test for and set the NULL value for CIMValues.
66 karl 1.62 This forces new CIMValues to have a NULL attributes that is only 67 reset when a value is "set" or copied into them. the XML and MOF 68 also deliver a NULL value back when the state of the CIMValue is NULL. 69 There is a remaining addition to put an exception on CIMValue gets when 70 the NULL attribute is set that we will install later.
71 karl 1.63
72 kumpf 1.67 5. KS - 19 Feb 2002 Extended testclient slightly and cleaned up numerous bugs.
73 karl 1.62
74 kumpf 1.67 6. KS - 19 Feb 2002 - Add workpaper in doc/workpaper defining the Pegasus Qualifiers.
75 karl 1.64 Note that this version of the paper still needs work. 76
77 kumpf 1.67 7. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Feb 2002 - Modified HTTPAcceptor to optionally bind to
78 kumpf 1.65 loopback host. Modified CIMClient to connect to loopback host when connectLocal() 79 method is used. Added a new method lookupPort() in System.h to return the system 80 configured wbem port number. Modified cimuser, cimauth and cimconfig CLI's to use 81 modified CIMClient connectLocal() interface. 82
83 kumpf 1.67 8. (KS- 21 Feb 2002) - Modified Makefile for repository load so located in
84 karl 1.66 schema directory. The one in src/pegasus/compiler/load is deprecated and 85 will be deleted. 86
87 kumpf 1.67 9. KS-21 Feb 2002 - Added new constructor to CIMValue and associated tests 88 89 10. RK-20 Feb 2002 - Add Array reference to CIMValue and added tests
90 karl 1.66
91 kumpf 1.67 11. (Sushma Fernandes - HP, Nag Boranna - HP) 22 Feb 2002 Implemented 92 checks for privileged user when performing authorization. 93 Added a configuration property enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess. 94 This property needs to be set to true to enable privileged user access 95 for remote clients.
96 karl 1.66
97 kumpf 1.68 12. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Added type information to extrinsic 98 method (InvokeMethod) operations. This change involves the addition 99 of PARAMTYPE attributes to PARAMVALUE and RETURNVALUE tags. This tag 100 allows the server to determine the type of a parameter value without 101 having to look up the method definition in the schema. It also allows 102 the client API to do the same for output parameters as well as return 103 values. 104 105 PROVIDER IMPLICATIONS: 106 107 Method providers ARE affected by this change. Previously, all input 108 parameters to invokeMethod were sent to the provider as String type 109 regardless of what the client actually specified or how the method 110 was defined. With this change, providers will now receive input 111 parameters of the type that was actually specified by the client 112 application (regardless of how the method was defined in the schema). 113 114 However, parameters coming from clients other than the Pegasus client 115 API may omit the PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the operation 116 processor (currently dispatcher) will find these "typeless" parameters 117 and convert them to the correct type based on the method definition. 118 kumpf 1.68 The result is that if the client specifies the parameter type in the 119 XML encoding (as the Pegasus client API does), the method provider 120 will receive the type specified by the client; if the client does not 121 specify the parameter type, the method provider will see the type 122 specified in the method definition. 123 124 CLIENT IMPLICATIONS: 125 126 Clients ARE affected by this change. Any output parameters that are 127 returned from Pegasus (or other CIM servers using the PARAMTYPE 128 attribute) will now be received by Pegasus clients as the same type 129 sent by the server. Previously, they would have always been of 130 String type. In addition, the return value will be received as the 131 correct type rather than as a String. 132 133 Parameters coming from servers other than Pegasus may omit the 134 PARAMTYPE attribute. In this case, the client will see a 135 CIMParamValue with type==CIMType::NONE, with a CIMValue of type 136 String. Similarly, return values coming from other servers that omit 137 PARAMTYPE will be seen by the client as String type. These return 138 values will NOT have the CIMType::NONE hint that parameters get, 139 kumpf 1.68 because they are CIMValues rather than CIMParamValues. 140 141 This behavior will remain for the forseeable future (through 142 Pegasus version 2), as it is not possible to require that other 143 implementations use the PARAMTYPE attribute. 144 145 SIDE EFFECTS: 146 147 In the process of implementing this functionality, I discovered 148 that there was no way to set a CIMValue to be an array of 149 CIMReferences. This appeared to be an oversight, since method 150 parameters are permitted to be arrays of CIMReferences. I've 151 added the necessary functionality to the CIMValue class. 152 153 I also found that the CIMParamValue class needed significant 154 clean-up, which I completed. 155 156 SETPROPERTY CHANGES: 157 158 A similar problem in SetProperty operations was addressed by 159 "typing" the specified property value in the operation processor 160 kumpf 1.68 (currently dispatcher). This is achieved by looking up the 161 relevant schema to get the property definition, and then converting 162 the specified value to that property's type. 163 164 The SetProperty operation encoding has not changed to accomodate 165 inclusion of type information that would obviate the need for this 166 extra processing. However, clients can avoid this overhead by using 167 ModifyInstance operations (with a property list) instead of SetProperty. 168 169 The GetProperty operation also has NOT been updated with type 170 information. Client applications using the Pegasus client API will 171 always receive String or reference values when calling GetProperty 172 against any server (Pegasus or not). Clients that require properties 173 to be returned as the correct type must use GetInstance (perhaps with 174 a property list) rather than GetProperty. 175
176 kumpf 1.69 13. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 22 Feb 2002 - Reworked the CIMParamValue class. 177 Instead of being composed of a CIMParameter and a CIMValue, this 178 class is now composed of a String (parameter name) and a CIMValue. 179 This change removes the redundancy of having the type, isArray, 180 and arraySize members in both the CIMParameter and the CIMValue. 181 The new CIMParamValue definition is more consistent with the XML 182 encoding of parameter values. 183 184 An isTyped member was also added to CIMParamValue to support the 185 behavior outlined in item 12 above. Clients should use the isTyped() 186 method to determine whether the output parameters returned from 187 InvokeMethod operations are of the correct type, or whether they 188 have defaulted to String type.
189 karl 1.70 190 14. (KS) 4 March 2002 - Corrections for NULL value and the XML code. 191 Corrections to compiler for Null values input (parser and valuectory)
192 karl 1.72
193 kumpf 1.71 15. (Nag Boranna - HP) 04 March 2002 - Modified CIMClient API to accept 194 username and password as parameters to connect() method, added a new 195 method diconnect() that closes the open connection with the server 196 and added code to handle HTTP Basic authentication challenges from 197 the server.
198 karl 1.72 199 16 (KS) 4 March 2002 - Correct problem with array constants not picking up 200 all of the entires in the array. Bugzilla bug # 6. 201
202 kumpf 1.73 17. (Yi Zhou - HP) 4 March 2002 - Implemented provider registration manager 203 to perform efficient lookup of instance provider, method provider, and 204 indication provider. Also, implemented provider registration instances 205 operations. 206 207 Modified registration provider to use latest provider registration schema.
208 karl 1.74 209 18 (KS) 6 March 2002 - Implemented changes to compiler and flavors to correct the 210 definition of CIMFlavors.
211 karl 1.76
212 kumpf 1.68
213 kumpf 1.75 19. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 1 Mar 2002 - Reworked the XmlWriter class to 214 eliminate many of the redundant memory copies that resulted from the 215 nested method call structure. Now, instead of having a method at 216 each level that adds a begin tag, contents, and an end tag, there 217 are separate methods to add the begin and end tags. At the top 218 level, each of the begin tag methods are called, then the message 219 "body" is added, followed by calls to the end tag methods. 220 221 The message body is currently still copied twice, once into the XML 222 payload and then again when the HTTP header is added. (Since the 223 HTTP header contains a content length field, the header cannot be 224 constructed until the payload is complete.) It is possible to 225 remove these extra copies as well, but that would require additional 226 changes elsewhere in the code. For example, the HTTPMessage class 227 would need to hold the headers and payload separately rather than in 228 a single buffer. 229 230 Along with these changes, I did a lot of cleanup. Much of the XML 231 formatting code has been moved from CIMReference to XmlWriter. Also, 232 error message formatting has been consolidated in XmlWriter from the 233 various encoders and decoders, etc. 234 kumpf 1.75 235 20. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 5 Mar 2002 - Added checks in the 236 CIMOperationRequestDecoder and CIMExportRequestDecoder to validate 237 that the information in the HTTP headers of a request is consistent 238 with what is encoded in the XML request itself. 239 240 Specifically, the CIMOperation, CIMProtocolVersion, CIMMethod, 241 CIMObject, CIMBatch, CIMExport, and CIMExportBatch headers are 242 validated.
243 karl 1.76 244 21. (KS) 7 March 2002 - Correct error in qualifier propagation processing in 245 qualifierlist.resolve. Temporarily remove the DEFAULT setup on the 246 Compiler qualifier generation. Add tests for resolve processing.
247 karl 1.78
248 kumpf 1.77 22. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 8 Mar 2002 - Simplified CIMClient API construction. 249 Previously, the client application constructed a client API using: 250 251 Monitor* monitor = new Monitor; 252 HTTPConnector* connector; 253 connector = new HTTPConnector(monitor); 254 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional 255 256 CIMClient client(monitor, connector, timeoutMillis); 257 258 With this change, the client application now looks like: 259 260 Uint32 timeoutMillis = 60 * 1000; // optional 261 262 CIMClient client(timeoutMillis); 263 264 The old style allowed an SSL context to be specified in the HTTPConnector 265 constructor. It seems that the SSL context is really a property of a 266 connection rather than of the client API. So instead of adding an SSL 267 context parameter to the CIMClient constructor, I added it to the CIMClient 268 connect() method. There are now forms of the connect() method with and 269 kumpf 1.77 without an SSL context. Similar changes were made in the HTTPConnector 270 class to allow specification of an SSL context in the connect() method 271 rather than in the constructor. 272 273 NOTE: Client applications are affected and must be updated with this 274 change. I've already updated all the clients that are checked in and 275 included in the Pegasus build.
276 kumpf 1.79
277 karl 1.78 23. (KS) 8 March 2002 - Correct error in compiler that caused length field 278 of fixed length arrays to be lost.
279 kumpf 1.75
280 kumpf 1.79 24. (Jenny Yu - HP) 8 March 2002 - Modified the CIMException class to NOT 281 include the source filename and line number in the exception message. 282 However, for anyone who wishes to include such information in the 283 CIM Exception message, a compile option DEBUG_CIMEXCEPTION can be used 284 for that purpose. 285 286 A couple of changes have been made to the Tracer class: 287 288 - CIMException messages can now be put in a trace file using the Tracer. 289 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a CIMException 290 as input and writes the exception message in the CIMException to the 291 trace file. This message will include the source filename and the 292 line number of the CIMException originator. 293 294 Tracer::traceCIMException(traceComponent, traceLevel, cimException); 295 296 - Strings can now be traced using the Tracer class: 297 A new interface has been added to the Tracer to accept a String as 298 input and writes the String to the trace file. 299 300 (ex.) 301 kumpf 1.79 You can issue the following method call: 302 Tracer::trace(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed."); 303 304 or use the following new macro: 305 PEG_TRACE_STRING(TRC_CONFIG, Tracer::LEVEL2, "Operation Failed."); 306
307 ramnath 1.81 25. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 11 March 2002 - added IPCTru64.h and modified
308 ramnath 1.80 several files so that Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Added 309 one macro in ConfigUnix and ConfigWindows (PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY) in 310 the case where std::ios::binary is present with a bitwise OR operator. 311 This macro only works when the std::ios::binary is NOT the first 312 operator to be "OR"ed.
313 ramnath 1.81 314 26. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 12 March 2002 - modified more files so that 315 Pegasus could build and run on Tru64 unix. Finished replacing instances 316 of ios::binary with the macros PEGASUS_IOS_BINARY and 317 PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY. Also modified some code that dealt with file 318 streams. Tru64 does not support the use of the " != " operator on a 319 fstream object. Instances of such were either modified or an ifdef 320 block detecting a build on Tru64 was used. Added cstdarg and ctime in 321 pegasus/src/stdcxx/cwrappers/ directory.
322 ramnath 1.80
323 mary 1.82 27. (Mary Hinton) 16 March 2002 - fixed the CIMServer so that it could once 324 again be installed as a Windows service. The repositoryRootPath could 325 not be found, because the pegasusHome variable was not being set properly 326 in the Windows service work thread. 327
328 karl 1.83 28. (Bob Blair by KS) 17 March 2002 - Modified repository so there is both a 329 local repository (cimmofl) and a client interface repository (cimmof) 330 executable 331 332 29. (KS ) 18 March 2002 - Modified schema makefiles to use the cimomfl respository 333 executable.
334 kumpf 1.84 335 30. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Mar 2002 - Added range checking for Uint* and 336 Sint* values in XmlReader.cpp. Previously, values that were out of 337 range were simply truncated to fit the given integer size. An 338 exception is now thrown when the given string can not be parsed into 339 an integer of the specified size. 340
341 kumpf 1.85 31. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Mar 2002 - Added support for hexadecimal integers 342 in XmlReader.cpp. 343
344 kumpf 1.86 32. (Nag Boranna - HP) 21 March 2002 - Implemented server side Basic 345 Authentication handling code and cleaned up ATTN's in the authentication 346 releated files. Implemented a new AuthenticationInfoRep class and modified 347 the related files. Added more test cases to test the authentication classes. 348
349 karl 1.88 33. (Ramnath Ravindran - Compaq) 21 March 2002 - replaced instances of "\| ios::binary" 350 with PEGASUS_OR_IOS_BINARY in 3 files: System.cpp, InstanceIndexFile.cpp, and
351 ramnath 1.87 InstanceDataFile.cpp
352 karl 1.88 353 34. (KS) 25 March 2002 - Extended qualifier resolution to correctly handle Flavors nad 354 enabled the scope and flavors testing. Had been pretty much blocked before. 355
356 kumpf 1.89 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Mar 2002 - Created a class to map CIM operation 357 request messages to provider API calls. Cleaned up the dispatcher and 358 added the ability to pass requests to control providers through the 359 ModuleController. Integrated the ConfigSettingProvider with the 360 ModuleController and set up the structure for getting the control 361 providers working. Moved the ConfigSettingProvider from the 362 Providers tree to the Pegasus tree, since it really is statically 363 linked into the server.
364 karl 1.88
365 kumpf 1.90 36. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the UserAuthProvider with 366 the ModuleController as a control provider. Moved the UserAuthProvider 367 from the Providers tree to the Pegasus tree. 368
369 kumpf 1.91 37. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 27 Mar 2002 - Integrated the 370 ProviderRegistrationProvider with the ModuleController as a control 371 provider. Moved the ProviderRegistrationProvider to the Pegasus 372 ControlProviders directory. Obsoleted and removed the 373 Server/ConfigurationManager class and files.
374 karl 1.92 375 38. (KS) 27 march 2002 - Modifications to common functions and the compiler to 376 extend the processing of class creation and correct the flavors and their 377 use. This allows flavors to be inherited with rules for override, etc. 378
379 kumpf 1.91
380 karl 1.59 -------------------------------------------------------------------
381 karl 1.52 Version 1.06 working towards 1.1 Started 13 December 2001 382 383 1. Merged back to Main branch. All general development will be in main branch 384 in the future with releases in side branches. Special side developments 385 may temporarily be in side branches. 386 Changed cimversion to 1.06. We will do 1.1 based on functionality.
387 karl 1.53 388 2. (Karl) 18 December 2001 - Added new directory repositories where repository 389 implementations will be kept to separate them from the 390 repository interface defintion. Initial implementation is genericfile 391 which is the current file based repository. 392 393 Added new build variable RMREPOSITORY which is a generic MAKE command 394 to remove an existing repository. It simply substitutes for the RMDIRHIER 395 command at this point but we will make this a generic part of system 396 in the future.
397 karl 1.52
398 kumpf 1.54 3. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 18 Dec 2001 - Updated the CIMOperationRequestDecoder 399 to check that all required parameters for intrinsic methods are 400 present. If a required parameter is missing, a CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER 401 exception is thrown. Also added checks for duplicate parameters in the 402 intrinsic methods. If a parameter is specified more than once, a 403 CIM_ERR_INVALID_PARAMETER exception is thrown. 404
405 kumpf 1.57 4. (Nag Boranna - HP) 14 Jan 2002 - Created CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue
406 kumpf 1.55 and moved Authorization verification code from CIMOperationRequestDecoder 407 queue to this new queue. Modified CIMServer.cpp to create 408 CIMOperationRequestAuthorizer queue only when authorization is enabled. 409 Also modified CIMRequestMessagesin CIMMessage.h to include userName to make 410 it available to the CIMOperationRequestDispatcher. 411
412 kumpf 1.57 5. (Mary Hinton - Jan 17, 2002) Fixed the problem with the CIMserver when it
413 mary 1.56 runs as a Windows service. The work thread was exiting instead of running 414 forever. The problem was noticed when the TestClient program and CIMserver 415 service were both running. The service wasn't accessible to the TestClient 416 program. 417
418 kumpf 1.58 6. (Nitin Upasani - Jan 25, 2002) Operations on CIM_IndicationSubscription, 419 CIM_IndicationHandlerCIMXML and CIM_IndicationFilter classes will be now processed 420 in new queue, IndicationService which will get invoked from dispatcher. 421 CIM_CREATE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 422 CIM_MODIFY_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 423 CIM_DELETE_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 424 CIM_GET_INSTANCE_REQUEST_MESSAGE 425 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCES_REQUEST_MESSAGE 426 CIM_ENUMERATE_INSTANCE_NAMES_REQUEST_MESSAGE 427 428 This new service will also take care of processing the indications on receiving 429 CIM_PROCESS_INDICATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE. This message should come from 430 IndicationProvider or some other mechanism which is not yet clear. 431 432 IndicationService will also receive following messages from PG_ProviderRegistration 433 when a new IndicationProvider will get registered. 434 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_REGISTRATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE 435 CIM_NOTIFY_PROVIDER_TERMINATION_REQUEST_MESSAGE 436 437 I had also defined new Indication Provider APIs, enableIndication, disableIndication 438 and modifyIndication with more parameters passed and eventually planning to terminate 439 kumpf 1.58 old APIs (provideIndication, cancelIndication and updateIndication). Also there is a 440 plan to implement one more call as startIndication and will be done soon. 441 442 There are three new test programs in IndicationService directory, which will create 443 Filter, Indication and Subscription instances using IndicationService. 444 445 Also modified sample IndicationProvider code with the new APIs introduced.

447 karl 1.52 -------------------------------------------------------------------------
448 karl 1.1
449 mike 1.51 Version 1.1.1 - 3 August 2001 - Development Branch (Work in Progress) 450 current working dev branch of build
451 mike 1.36
452 karl 1.49 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 453 Version 1.1 - July 2001 Development branch (Work in PRogress) 454
455 mike 1.50 1. (Mike Brasher) Fixed bug with XML generation (was not generating 456 PARAMETER.REFERENCE constructs for references). 457 458 2. (Mike Brasher) Reworked server communication into new module scheme.
459 mike 1.51 ======= 460 1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be 461 seen as part of CGIclient class displays. 462 463 2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version 464 to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor 465 corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the 466 official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change 467 should not affect any current work. 468 3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas 469 directorys. Note however that today the make repository still 470 loads the 2.5 schema. 471 472 4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers 473 on XML output. 474 475 5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem 476 in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp, 477 RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable 478 declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple 479 "for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error. 480 mike 1.51 481 6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove 482 dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the 483 cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files 484 and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that 485 were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config 486 provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified 487 provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI 488 to show user friendly error/status messages. 489 490 7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI 491 (reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected). 492 Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in 493 generating debug output. 494 495 8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in 496 xml when it generates xml output. 497 498 9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into 499 a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default 500 repository implementation. 501 mike 1.51 502 10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation. 503 504 11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element. 505 506 12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach. 507 508 13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples. 509 510 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. 511 512 15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules. 513 CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder. 514 515 16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete. 516 517 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. 518 519 18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS. 520 521 19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server 522 mike 1.51 interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with 523 a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information. 524 525 20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files 526 CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML 527 input and output can be written in a trace file. 528 529 21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support 530 Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and 531 deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !). 532 533 22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and 534 ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample 535 consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the 536 indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete 537 implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and 538 RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files 539 are modified to implement above messages. 540 541 XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete 542 operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication 543 mike 1.51 instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the 544 indication to consumer. This program needs 545 src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof 546 and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded 547 in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test 548 program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and 549 modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as 550 below: 551 552 //==================================================================== 553 // CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP 554 //==================================================================== 555 [Description ( 556 "CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for " 557 "Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML " 558 "representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ] 559 560 23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in 561 ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading 562 a provider library. 563 564 mike 1.51 24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod 565 interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as 566 type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give 567 information about param name, type and value. This should be changed 568 to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the 569 parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod 570 call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while 571 travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of 572 CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed 573 later). 574 575 Also added are two test programs: 576 577 src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of 578 CIMParamValue class. 579 580 src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to 581 InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current 582 implementation assumes that provider had returned true value 583 and outParameters (which are now hard coded in 584 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality) 585 mike 1.51 which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client. 586 587 25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of 588 authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager 589 and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication 590 module has been modified to implement the local authenticator 591 interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests 592 and to verify the authentication. 593 594 A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator. 595 This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not 596 yet linked into the build. 597 598 26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export 599 Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses 600 before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send 601 request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall. 602 New changes collects the Message* as return value from the 603 appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on 604 _outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully. 605 606 mike 1.51 27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to 607 fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the 608 providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name 609 construction (appending .sl or .so) from 610 CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to 611 ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns 612 provider file path name. 613 614 28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication 615 Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class 616 definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap 617 structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file. 618 Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master 619 agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism. 620 Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to 621 implement specific trap delivery mechanism. 622 623 29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to 624 be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating 625 property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the 626 plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library. 627 mike 1.51 628 30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer 629 to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given 630 string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface. 631 Changed the config file defaults for tracing. 632 633 31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq 634 NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files 635 were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak, 636 library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak, 637 program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered 638 all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now 639 only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and 640 library.mak were changed to include the NSK files. 641 File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak. 642 643 32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow 644 commas (,) in the string values of key properties. 645 646 33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6 647 648 mike 1.51 34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in 649 pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for 650 the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced 651 leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required 652 in make files. 653 654 35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25 655 because getting an error in 26 656 657 35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys 658 whose types are references. These reference values must be 659 treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE 660 tag structure. 661 662 Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values. 663 For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string 664 type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs. 665 666 I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and 667 CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the 668 XML in the proper format. However, making that change required 669 mike 1.51 that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key 670 of String type and a key of reference type. 671 672 I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to 673 allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of 674 reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for 675 key values of String type and of reference type, and so it 676 would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up 677 the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the 678 key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal 679 transformations between CIMReferences and String values. 680 681 The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value 682 for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows 683 the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or 684 reference type. 685 686 In this example: 687 688 MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10" 689 690 mike 1.51 Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets 691 the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R' 692 is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is 693 recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type, 694 which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation. 695 696 The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new 697 KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a 698 CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must 699 be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave 700 correctly. 701 702 The files that have been modified to make this change are 703 CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp. 704 705 A result of this change is that instances names in the instance 706 repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will 707 need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest 708 CIMOM version. 709 710 Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance 711 mike 1.51 names (such as might appear in MOF for static association 712 instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and 713 therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need 714 to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class 715 definition to determine the key property types. 716 717 36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components 718 in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner 719 init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with 720 cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options. 721 722 37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference 723 (instanceName). 724 725 38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of 726 GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages. 727 Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all 728 relevant intrinsic methods. 729 730 39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase 731 ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp 732 mike 1.51 733 40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following 734 files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp, 735 TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp, 736 IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of 737 SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files 738 (TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include 739 nsk platform links. 740 741 41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue 742 toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior 743 returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters 744 replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b 745 would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the 746 String value directly with no translation. (Note that 747 CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.) 748 749 This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the 750 repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by 751 CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to 752 CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name 753 mike 1.51 without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to 754 be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name 755 in that same form, without special character encoding. 756 757 42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to 758 the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(), 759 often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml(). 760 Also added some error handling in the indication handlers. 761 762 43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function 763 localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class 764 to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the 765 CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>. 766 Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml. 767 768 44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class 769 to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values 770 from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to 771 be updated to use this class. 772 773 45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line 774 mike 1.51 source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing 775 of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider 776 functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function 777 String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files. 778 779 46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on 780 the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate 781 the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests. 782 Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send 783 responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation 784 supports only 'local' authentication mechanism. 785 786 47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes: 787 788 - Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance> 789 to Array<CIMNamedInstance> 790 - Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to 791 CIMNamedInstance 792 - Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance 793 - Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the 794 CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String> 795 mike 1.51 796 Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification. 797 798 These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider 799 API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the 800 differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function. 801 However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added 802 functionality. 803 804 When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible: 805 806 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which 807 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the 808 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the 809 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by 810 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of 811 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace 812 the entire instance. 813 814 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with 815 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive 816 mike 1.51 these instance names, as the standard dictates. 817 818 - Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the 819 PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows 820 providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list. 821 822 Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in 823 ModifyInstance correctly. 824 825 48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance 826 provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and 827 ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with 828 the DMTF specification. 829 830 The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no 831 plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will 832 continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity 833 to take advantage of the features that have been added. 834 835 The significant changes to the Provider2 API are: 836 837 mike 1.51 - Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which 838 they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the 839 PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the 840 list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by 841 issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of 842 properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace 843 the entire instance. 844 845 - Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance 846 which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is 847 false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not 848 be used to update the instance. 849 850 - Providers will be required to return instance names along with 851 instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive 852 these instance names, as the standard dictates. 853 854 The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated. 855 However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw 856 a NOT_SUPPORTED exception. 857 858 mike 1.51 49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform, 859 files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to 860 the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK 861 platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation 862 without the standard (std) namespace. 863 864 50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration 865 properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository: 866 repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName. 867 868 Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the 869 default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default 870 setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To 871 disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the 872 following command before starting cimserver: 873 874 cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p 875 876 The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what 877 provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a 878 provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve 879 mike 1.51 instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set 880 to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the 881 repository as an instance provider for a class, add a 882 'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition. 883 884 51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to 885 pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides 886 service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures. 887 888 52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in 889 the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and 890 PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository 891 so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now 892 supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance. 893 894 Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and 895 Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and 896 ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers 897 written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new 898 ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty 899 operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only 900 mike 1.51 work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation. 901 902 53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the 903 Security components for authentication and authorization. 904 905 Authentication and User Management: 906 cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal 907 and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored 908 in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd 909 generated password file. 910 911 cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting 912 to add/remove/list user authorizations. 913 914 User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user 915 management and authorization functionality. 916 917 54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory 918 under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF. 919 920 55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider 921 mike 1.51 which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider. 922 It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes. 923 924 56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h 925 and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the 926 NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file. 927 928 57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication 929 subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the 930 CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler 931 classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action 932 in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider, 933 or change in provider registration. 934 935 58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service 936 and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully. 937 For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper 938 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf. 939 940 59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only). 941 It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined 942 mike 1.51 in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional 943 constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context 944 structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an 945 MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences 946 between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class 947 is defined even in a non-ssl environment. 948 How to use it in a Server or Client: 949 1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space 950 2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this 951 SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors 952 without SSL_Context for conventional connections.
953 mike 1.50
954 mike 1.51 The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and 955 cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag. 956 957 60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.

(Nag Boranna - HP) Implementation of Config Framework, Config Provider and 993 Config CLI. Please refer to the documentation 994 in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMConfigurationWorkPaper.pdf and the man page 995 in pegasus/src/Clients/cimconfig/doc/cimconfig.html for more information on 996 using the config framework and cimconfig CLI. Make sure to load the config 997 mof (src/gmake config) before starting the cimserver. A simple test script 998 is included. Please see pegasus/src/Clients/wbemexec/tests/readme for 999 information on running the test script. 1000 1001 mike 1.51 6. (Karl Schopmeyer 31 July 2001) - Add toMof functions to the CIM objects 1002 (changed the H and CPP files for the major CIM objects. These 1003 functions generate CIM MOF output for the objects. 1004 1005 7. (Bapu Patil - HP) Implementation of Local Channel Authentication. Local 1006 Authentication provides security mechanism to authenticates CIM clients 1007 that 1008 connect to CIM Server on the same system without having to specify a 1009 password. 1010 Please refer to "doc/LocalCIMSecurity.pdf" for more information on design. 1011 This component only works on unix and it's not linked in with the main 1012 build. 1013 When authentication framework is defined this component may need to be 1014 modified to integrate with the framework.

1038 kumpf 1.40 3. (Denise E. - HP) HP-UX specific changes to lslp-perl-linux,h and slp.h to 1039 allow slp to compile. 1040
1041 mike 1.42 4. (Mike Brasher) - Finalized CIM messages. 1042 1043 5. (Mike Brasher) - Added queue ids concept (using hash table which maps 1044 ids to queue pointers). 1045
1046 mike 1.43 6. (Mike Brasher) - Started integration of message queues with ServerHandler 1047 and Dispatcher. 1048
1049 karl 1.48 7. (Chip Vincent) - Update Provider2 interfaces. Made changes to Dispatcher 1050 and 1051 CIMProvider to support both interfaces. Added CIMOMHandle and sample

1067 karl 1.35 Version 0.97.4 - Tag Created for 0.97.4 and snapshot 7 July 2001
1068 karl 1.16 1069 1. Deamonizaiton added to CIMServer.cpp by Mike Day. This includes code bothe 1070 for NT and Linux platforms.
1071 mike 1.26
1072 karl 1.17 2. KS Changed the namespace cimv20 to cimv2 and the default port from 888 to 1073 5988. 1074 NOTE: 5988 is now the officially recognized preferred port for a CIMServer by 1075 the DMTF.
1076 mike 1.26
1077 karl 1.17 3. KS Corrected some errors found in interoperability testing during the DMTF 1078 Fusion event. THis included a) extended the test for end of HTTP header from 1079 CR/LF/CR/LF to also allow LF/LF. Not strictly legal but widely used. b). 1080 Extended the HTTP message ID to allow for non-numeric message IDs.
1081 mike 1.26
1082 bob 1.18 4. Broke out RepositoryDeclContext class from Repository/CIMRepository.cpp 1083 and created RepositoryDeclContext.{cpp,h}. This is the first step in 1084 revamping the compiler to work independently of the repository (grb).
1085 mike 1.26
1086 bob 1.19 5. Created new makefile Compiler/Makefile.grammar and modified 1087 Compiler/Makefile; and added cimmof_tab.{cpp,h} and cimmof_lex.cpp. 1088 Now when you build normally, you will get the committed grammar and parser 1089 files instead of generating your own for a particular platform. This should 1090 prevent back-level lex and yacc implementations from generating troublesome 1091 code. The committed files are generated from flex 2.5.4 and bison 1,28.
1092 bob 1.20 (grb)
1093 mike 1.26
1094 bob 1.20 6. Added Compiler/compilerDeclContext.{cpp,h} and makefile changes. 1095 This change paves the way for upcoming changes that will allow the compiler 1096 to work indepently of the repository. (grb)
1097 mike 1.26
1098 karl 1.21 7. Extend testclient (clients/testclient) tests and functions. ks 19 June 2001
1099 mike 1.26
1100 karl 1.25 8. CV added const to CIMOperations modifyInstance, createInstance, 1101 modifyClass,
1102 chip 1.22 createClass to protect caller's object.
1103 mike 1.26
1104 karl 1.25 9. CV added CIMQueryProvider and CIMAssociationProvider to the Provider2 1105 directory. These 1106 interfaces allow very smart providers to perform advances operations. 1107 CIMProviderStub has
1108 chip 1.23 been updated to support the new interfaces. Needs testing.
1109 mike 1.26
1110 sage 1.24 10. Added rpm packaging support and shell script based build process. MM
1111 mike 1.26
1112 karl 1.25 11. Changed Make so make tests no longer rebuilds repository. To rebuild 1113 repository you make world, make rebuild or make repository. ks
1114 mike 1.26 1115 12. Added associators() and associatorNames() operations to CIM repository.
1116 mike 1.27 (MEB) 1117 1118 13. More on association implementation (all four operations supported). 1119 Need to handle deletion of associations and protocol stubs still. 1120 Need to test class associations (rather than just instance associations). 1121 Need to handle deleteInstance(). 1122 (MEB)
1123 mike 1.26
1124 mday 1.28 14. slp client code integrated as pegasus-style c++ library. (MDD) 1125
1126 karl 1.30 15. (Karl)Update CGI Client to correct number of errors and install 1127 AssociationName
1128 karl 1.29 and ReferenceName functions. This included extensive update to the HTML 1129 pages. 1130
1131 karl 1.30 16. (Denise E.) Changes to slp client support code for HPUX (
1132 sage 1.31 1133 17. (Markus Mueller) Additional changes to support dynamic libraries. Fixed 1134 ProviderTable tests. Fixed build process (slp with PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB). 1135 Made cimserver accept the -D flag to eliminate the need for environment 1136 variables.
1137 mike 1.32 1138 18. (Mike Brasher) Added support for Associators(), AssociatorNames(), 1139 References() and ReferenceNames() CIM operations. These only operate 1140 on instances at this time. They will operate on classes soon.
1141 kumpf 1.34 1142 19. (Mike Glantz) Extended and modified dynamic support 1143 changes to (1) work on HP-UX and (2) have all images and libraries 1144 buildable per the value of PEGASUS_SUPPORTS_DYNLIB. The biggest 1145 change is to program.mak and library-unix.mak, removing specific 1146 lists of dynamic library specs and putting them in the Makefile 1147 and libraries.mak files that build the actual targets (lots of 1148 these now have DYNAMIC_LIBRARIES defined).
1149 karl 1.35 1150 20. (Karl) added basic Queue function to common (based on array) and added 1151 tests for stack and queue.

1182 karl 1.13 throws CannotBind exception.
1183 mike 1.33
1184 karl 1.15 7. (KS)Added logger entry to XMLParser for errors. NOTE: At this point it may 1185 not
1186 karl 1.14 print out all of the message. At the least it prints out the error message 1187 and components of the message causing the problem.
1188 mike 1.33

1214 karl 1.6 23 May 2001 Version 0.97.1 Tags as version_0_971
1215 karl 1.5
1216 karl 1.3 1. Add PEG_NOT_FOUND symbol to replace Uint32(-1) in any of the object 1217 find functions. Note: This symbol is defined in config.h. (ks). 1218
1219 karl 1.5 2. Port To HP UX. This required a number of changes particularly in the area 1220 of dynamic lib loaading.
1221 karl 1.1 1222

1225 mike 1.26
1226 karl 1.3 21 May 2001 Version 0.97 - Tagged as version_0_97
1227 karl 1.1 1228 1. Added methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance, for existance of properties, 1229 qualifiers, methods. 1230 2. Add methods in CIMClass, CIMInstance to remove properties, qualifier, 1231 methods. 1232 3. Added CIMmethod and CIMProperty in CIMMethod to text for existance of 1233 qualifiers and to 1234 remove qualifiers. 1235 4. Ported to AIX. NOTE: This port was done using an earlier version of the AIX 1236 compiler. It probably imposed more limitations than would be required with
1237 karl 1.2 the current compiler. This version of the port produces an excessively large 1238 common module due to template bloat. That problem will be fixed in a future 1239 change to the port. Also there are a log of duplicate symbol warnings generate 1240 by the AIC compiler but these cause no problems. The port has been tested 1241 with the complete unit test and client/server test successfully.
