1 mike  1.3 

  2 mike  1.31.2.1     -	Migrate to use of Linkage.h files.
  3                

  4 mike  1.31         -   Document that lex and yacc are no longer a requirement to build
  5                	Pegasus.
  6                

  7 mike  1.30         -	Figure out how to handle very large CIM respones and possibly
  8                	requests too.
  9                
 10                    -   Integrate client/server tests into make system somehow.
 11                

 12 mike  1.29         -   Note that it is possible to remove an class and still have association
 13                	classes which refer to it.
 14                
 15                    -   Class inheritance not taken into consideration when resolving the
 16                	AssocClass
 17                
 18                    -   It seems that associatios() will fail when AssocClass is a super
 19                	class of the class which is in the association instance table.
 20                

 21 mike  1.28         -   Should there be a single associations table for the entire repository
 22                	or should there be one per namespace as there is now?
 23                

 24 mike  1.27         -   If it is the case that a reference may only refer to an instance,
 25                	then we must derive new types for representing object paths.
 26                
 27                    -   Many CIM operations interfaces are incorrect: GetInstance() for example
 28                	takes a namespace and a CIMReference (which also may contain the 
 29                	namespace). According to the standard, it should take an "InstanceName".
 30                

 31 mike  1.26         -   Need way of signaling the cimserver so that it will reload the
 32                	class inheritance table (after a MOF compile).
 33                    

 34 mike  1.25         -   Revisit use of namespace v.s. objectName in all CIM operations.
 35                
 36                    -   What do we do when getInstance() is called and the nameSpace is
 37                	provided both as an argument and as part of the instance name?
 38                
 39                    -   ReferenceNames should return classes not just instances?

 40 mike  1.22     

 41 mike  1.24         -   Remove final const from const methods in non-const CIM element classes.
 42                

 43 mike  1.22         -   Null vs. empty CIM/HTTP parameters.
 44                
 45                    -   Resolve constness problems. (get rid or Const classes?)
 46                
 47                    -	Change CIMReference to CIMObjectPath?
 48                
 49                    -	Finish associations.
 50                
 51                    -	Provide CIMOM Context.

 53                    -	Complete conventions document.
 54                

 55 mike  1.23         -   The CIMServer.exe program should probably create the logs directory
 56                	under PEGASUS_HOME.
 57                

 58 mike  1.22         -   Clean up exceptions.
 59                

 60 mike  1.21         -   Resolve redundancy in which the namespace is passed to certain methods
 61                	(getClass) and the CIMReference itself may contain a namespace arguent.
 62                

 63 mike  1.20         -	Implement consistency and constraint checking on classes and instances.
 64

 77 mike  1.16     

 78 mike  1.17         -   Create CIMOMContext (interface to CIMOM used b the provider).

108 mike  1.10     

109 mike  1.17     	-   Observation of client/CIMMOM connections/disconnection.

133 mike  1.1      

134 mike  1.17         - 	GetInstances() and GetClasses() need to use iterators on
135                	provider and repository end. Otherwise, all classes or instance
136                	to be enumerated, must be sucked into memory.

159                

160 mike  1.5          -	Distinguish between private and public classes (otherwise, users may

161 mike  1.1      	come to depend on classes with unstable interfaces).

168                	functions).
