18 karl  1.1 The major components of Pegasus are:
19           

20 karl  1.3 <B>Pegasus Server</B> - WBEM/CIM CIM_Server with interfaces for providers and Clients

21 karl  1.1 

22 karl  1.3 <B>Pegasus Repository </B>- Today Pegasus provides a defined class repository interface and a simple

23 karl  1.1 file based class repository. Future will include the object repository
24           

25 karl  1.3 <B>Pegasus Client SDK</B> - Tools for building Pegasus clients based on the Pegasus C++ interfaces

26 karl  1.1 and using the WBEM HTTP/XML protocols or directly interfacing with Pegasus
27           

28 karl  1.3 <B>Pegasus Test Clients</B> - Simple test clients being developed as part of the Pegasus development

29 karl  1.1 process
30           

31 karl  1.3 <B>Pegasus HTML Test Client</B> - To aid some testing we created a test client for Pegasus that uses

32 karl  1.1 a WEB server (ex. Apache) with a set of CGI modules and HTML to allow the entry of Pegasus
33           operations from a WEB browser as forms and the recept of the response as WEB pages. This has
34           proven useful as a test tool and can be used for a wide variety of demonstrations.
35           

36 karl  1.3 <B>Pegasus Providers</B> - Pegasus providers are build as separate components that can be dynamically loaded by the Pegasus server. 

37 karl  1.1 

38 karl  1.3 <B>Pegasus Service Extensions</B> -  Future (version 1.0)

39 karl  1.1 

40 karl  1.3 <B>Pegasus MOF Compiler</B> - The Pegasus MOF compiler compiles MOF files and installs them into the Pegasus repository.

41 karl  1.1

43           ATTN: Define the files that make up these components and their structure.

46           /** @name Pegasus Directory Structure

47 karl  1.1 
48           
49           Pegasus is distributed as a complete directory structure that should be installed either
50           from one of the snapshots or from CVS.
51           
52           This structure is generally as follows:
53
