31 s.soni 1.1 Large Data Sample Provider
32            --------------------------
33            The test programs present in this directory implement an instance provider 
34            that exercise the messaging system by returning large amounts of data.
35            
36            The Base Class of the provider is LargeDataSampleClass, the class for which
37            all the CIM operations are performed is SampleClass.
38            
39            Working
40            -------
41            There is a const macro NO_OF_INSTANCES which decides the number of instances 
42            to be created. This can be modified for testing huge amount of data in any of 
43            the 2 places. Either in the source file LargeDataProvider.cpp Or in the 
44            Makefile by defining the NO_OF_INSTANCES locally as:
45            LOCAL_DEFINES=-DNO_OF_INSTANCES=<number>
46            If it is defined inside the Makefile, the value present in the cpp source is 
47            overwritten.
48            The creation of Instances is done when the enumerateInstances method of the
49            provider is called.If a client requests for enumerateInstanceNames it will fail
50            if enumerateInstances wouldn't have been executed.
51            
52 s.soni 1.1 Scripts
53            -------
54            rebuild: After modifying the source for NO_OF_INSTANCES you need to execute 
55            	this script in order to rebuild and register the provider. It also 
56            	restarts the cimserver so that the new repository is also loaded when
57            	we are performing operations on the Provider.
