1 mike  1.3 

  2 mike  1.31.2.5     -	Get rid of message keys? They don't seem to be used.
  3                

  4 mike  1.31.2.4     -	Fix bug in src/Pegasus/Client/tests/Client in which associators()
  5                	fails and says class does not exist (seems to happen in debug mode
  6                	only). Disappears when I/O is enabled.
  7                

  8 mike  1.31.2.3     -	Replace old headers with new ones (co-ordinate with team).
  9                

 10 mike  1.31.2.2     -	Get rid of usage of System (use since it
 11                

 12 mike  1.31.2.1     -	Migrate to use of Linkage.h files.
 13                

 14 mike  1.31         -   Document that lex and yacc are no longer a requirement to build
 15                	Pegasus.
 16                

 17 mike  1.30         -	Figure out how to handle very large CIM respones and possibly
 18                	requests too.
 19                
 20                    -   Integrate client/server tests into make system somehow.
 21                

 22 mike  1.29         -   Note that it is possible to remove an class and still have association
 23                	classes which refer to it.
 24                
 25                    -   Class inheritance not taken into consideration when resolving the
 26                	AssocClass
 27                
 28                    -   It seems that associatios() will fail when AssocClass is a super
 29                	class of the class which is in the association instance table.
 30                

 31 mike  1.28         -   Should there be a single associations table for the entire repository
 32                	or should there be one per namespace as there is now?
 33                

 34 mike  1.27         -   If it is the case that a reference may only refer to an instance,
 35                	then we must derive new types for representing object paths.
 36                
 37                    -   Many CIM operations interfaces are incorrect: GetInstance() for example
 38                	takes a namespace and a CIMReference (which also may contain the 
 39                	namespace). According to the standard, it should take an "InstanceName".
 40                

 41 mike  1.26         -   Need way of signaling the cimserver so that it will reload the
 42                	class inheritance table (after a MOF compile).
 43                    

 44 mike  1.25         -   Revisit use of namespace v.s. objectName in all CIM operations.
 45                
 46                    -   What do we do when getInstance() is called and the nameSpace is
 47                	provided both as an argument and as part of the instance name?
 48                
 49                    -   ReferenceNames should return classes not just instances?

 50 mike  1.22     

 51 mike  1.24         -   Remove final const from const methods in non-const CIM element classes.
 52                

 53 mike  1.22         -   Null vs. empty CIM/HTTP parameters.
 54                
 55                    -   Resolve constness problems. (get rid or Const classes?)
 56                
 57                    -	Change CIMReference to CIMObjectPath?
 58                
 59                    -	Finish associations.
 60                
 61                    -	Provide CIMOM Context.

 63                    -	Complete conventions document.
 64                

 65 mike  1.23         -   The CIMServer.exe program should probably create the logs directory
 66                	under PEGASUS_HOME.
 67                

 68 mike  1.22         -   Clean up exceptions.
 69                

 70 mike  1.21         -   Resolve redundancy in which the namespace is passed to certain methods
 71                	(getClass) and the CIMReference itself may contain a namespace arguent.
 72                

 73 mike  1.20         -	Implement consistency and constraint checking on classes and instances.
 74

 84                	"-l" option.

 87 mike  1.16     

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

117 mike  1.17         -   Implement good observer module interface which allows different levels:

118 mike  1.10     

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

136 mike  1.1      

137 mike  1.17         -   Web Server/Pegasus Integration (use HTTP protocol capabilities of

142 mike  1.17         - 	Change HTTP message id's to this format: "YYYY.MM.DD.HH.MM.SS.NNNNN".

143 mike  1.1      

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

148 mike  1.17         -   Template bloat reduction.

149 mike  1.1

164 mike  1.1      

165 mike  1.5          -	Add methods to get objects by their names, in addition to index. For

166 mike  1.1      	example:
167                
168                	    CIMProperty CIMClass::getProperty(const String& name);
169                

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

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

178                	functions).
