  6            First installment
  7            
  8               This installment of JMPI has been committed to the 2.4 branch.
  9               This installment has been build and tested on Suse 9.0 with Sun's j2sdk 1.4.2_04.
 10            
 11            
 12            Environment settings
 13            
 14               In order to build this support a few environment variables have to used.
 15               The following script has been proven useful for setting up the build and execution environment.
 16               You might need to adjust this to your system layout.
 17            
 18               export PEGASUS_HOME=`pwd`
 19               export PEGASUS_PLATFORM=LINUX_IX86_GNU
 20               export ENABLE_PROVIDER_MANAGER2=1
 21               export ENABLE_CMPI_PROVIDER_MANAGER=1
 22 schuur 1.1    export ENABLE_JMPI_PROVIDER_MANAGER=1
 23               export PEGASUS_DEBUG=1
 24               export JAVA_SDK=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_04
 25               export JAVA_SDKINC=$JAVA_SDK/include
 26               export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PEGASUS_HOME/lib:$JAVA_SDK/jre/lib/i386/server:$JAVA_SDK/jre/lib/i386/native_threads:$JAVA_SDK/jre/lib/i386
 27               export PATH=$JAVA_SDK/bin:$PATH
 28               export CLASSPATH=$PEGASUS_HOME/src/Pegasus/ProviderManager2/JMPI
 29               export PATH=$PEGASUS_HOME/bin:$PATH
 30               export PEGASUS_ROOT=$PEGASUS_HOME
 31               export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5
 32               cd $PEGASUS_HOME
 33            
 34               When using this script, place a copy of this script above your PEGASUS_HOME directory.
 35               "cd" to PEGASUS_HOME, and issue ". ../setJPeg". Then do a normal make.
 36            
 37            
 38            This installent has a number of restrictios:
 39            
 40               The provider interfaces follow the SNIA OpenWBEM APIs
 41               Only Instance and Association providers are supported at the moment.
 42            	SetProperty and GetProperty CIM operations will crash cimserver
 43 schuur 1.1    Jar support is not yet implemented - all classes must be accessable via the CLASSPATH variabe.
 44               The Makefiles are not yet Pegasus conforming.
 45            	cimmofl must be used for provider registration.
 46            
 47            	Unloading of idle providers is not supported and Java will increase the memory footprint.
 48            
 49            
 50            poststarttests
 51            
 52               This installment has a set of tests modelled after wetest/static. All tests work properly except
 53               the Property tests. I had to modify "diff" to "diff -w", why that is needed I do not understand.
 54            
 55            
 56            Building poststarttests:
 57            
 58               cd to .../src/Pegasus/ProviderManager2/JMPI/org/pegasus/jmpi/tests/Load
 59               Issue "make"
 60            
 61               This will load a schema to the repository and register the provider.
 62            
 63            
 64 schuur 1.1 Running poststarttests:
 65            
 66               cd to .../src/Pegasus/ProviderManager2/JMPI/org/pegasus/jmpi/tests
 67               Issue "find -name "*.rsp" -exec rm {} \;" to clean up *.rsp files
 68               Issue "make poststarttests"
 69            
 70            
 71            Samples
 72            
 73               The provider used for posstarttest,
 74            	.../JMPI/org/pegasus/jmpi/test/JMPI_TestPropertyTypes/JMPI_TestPropertyTest.java is a working
 75            	example of how to code an JMPI tyle instance provider.
 76            	This directors also constains the required Makefile.
 77            
 78            	.../JMPI/org/pegasus/jmpi/sample contains more samples, one of which is an incomplete CIMClient
 79            	sample.
 80            
 81            	Notice that all provider classes must be accessibe via the CASSPATH environment setting.
 82            
 83            
 84            Provider Registration
 85 schuur 1.1 
 86               JMPI providers are registered as usual. The Location property in P_ProviderModule has a special format.
 87            	The format is: <jar-file-name>:<provider-class-name>
 88            
 89            	Although jar support is not yet working correctly, this format must be used. You should use cimmofl
 90            	for registration untill cimmof is prepared for JMPI.
 91            
 92               instance of PG_ProviderModule
 93               {
 94                  Name = "JMPI_TestPropertyTypesModule";
 95                  Location = "JMPI_TestPropertyTypes.jar:"
 96            		           "org/pegasus/jmpi/tests/JMPI_TestPropertyTypes/JMPI_TestPropertyTypes";
 97                  Vendor = "Pegasus Community";
 98                  Version = "2.0.0";
 99                  InterfaceType = "JMPI";
100                  InterfaceVersion = "1.0.0";
101               };
102            
103            
104            Bug reports
105            
106 schuur 1.1    Use normal Pegasus bugzilla procedures to report malfunctions. However, I will be out of town and
107               offline though 5/14/2004.
