1 mike 1.3 Urgent
2 ======
3
|
4 mike 1.11 - Add CIMOM handle to provider interface.
5
|

|
9 mike 1.5 - Add newly implemented repository operations to protocol and to
10 dispatcher.
11
|

13 mike 1.5 Repository).
|
14 mike 1.4
|
15 mike 1.7 - Add tracing of output HTTP messages.
16
|
17 mike 1.8 - Need CIMInstance::removeMethod() and CIMInstance::removeProperty().
|
18 karl 1.14 - Add a exists namespace operation under the repository stuff. Maybe we
19 need more than this.
|
20 mike 1.8
|
21 mike 1.1 Topical To-Do List
22 ==================
23
|
24 mike 1.13 - Provide way of printing out command line options help from cimserver.
25
|
26 karl 1.14 - GetInstances() and GetClasses() need to use iterators on

29 karl 1.14
|
30 mike 1.10 - Template bloat reduction.
31
32 - Use YACC on Linux.

|
64 mike 1.1

85 - Protocol:
86
|
87 mike 1.5 - Improve protocol tracing to show messages in both directions.
|
88 mike 1.1
|
89 mike 1.5 - The TCPChannel::writeN() method blocks when the client and server
|
90 mike 1.1 are in the same process. That is because the client cannot read
91 anything as long as writeN() is blocked on a synchronous write.
92
|
93 mike 1.5 - Figure out how to handle getProperty() return type.
|
94 mike 1.1
|
95 mike 1.5 - Provide ACE Channel implementation (for porting purposes)?

|
110 karl 1.14 of genius and of Lingerie".
|
111 mike 1.1
|
112 mike 1.5 - Add methods to get objects by their names, in addition to index. For
|
113 mike 1.1 example:
114
115 CIMProperty CIMClass::getProperty(const String& name);
116
|
117 mike 1.5 - Perform walkthrough to expose consistency problems.
|
118 mike 1.1
|
119 mike 1.5 - Distinguish between private and public classes (otherwise, users may
|
120 mike 1.1 come to depend on classes with unstable interfaces).
121
122 - Documentation:
123
|
124 mike 1.5 - Suggest newlines after methods.
|
125 mike 1.1
|
