cimple-2.0.24.tar.gz and cimple-2.0.24.zip

May 31 2011

This is a minor release issued correct an error found in the association operation with the PegasusAdapter and an error introduced in 2.0.22 in genmod. The genmod error would be evidenced by a users in inability to register providers with regmod to OpenPegasus. It is recommended that vesion 2.0.22 users upgrade to this verison of SimpleWbem. Note that version 2.0.22 introduced a new configuration parameter that allows users to control use of the macros that generate log entries. This version did not add any functionality to SimpleWbem. See the ChangeLog for a detailed list of the changes. All extensions and changes documented for 2.0.18 -2.0.22 apply to this version.

cimple-2.0.18.tar.gz and cimple-2.0.18.zip

May 18 2011

This is a minor release primarily to fix some issues with adapters and implement extensions to the logging functions. This minor version added functionality to allow better control of logging and to implement APIs so that the provider can dynamically control some configuration capabilities (class CimpleConfig). This logging extension was at user request since the CIMPLE users want to utilize the logging capability in production as well as development. NOTE: Please consider CimpleConfig experimental for this release since this the first time it will be used generally. We will freeze in the next release. Notable changes:

Added capability to limit size of log files and backup logs files
Added conditional trace for adapters. Implemented for Pegasus adapter
Added compile config parameter to control adapter trace (--enable-adapter-trace)
Added compile config parameter to disable logging (--disable_log_macros)
Added runtime config parameter to set max log file size(MAX_LOG_FILE_SIZE=(integer)
Added runtime config parameter to set max number of backup log files(MAX_LOG_BACKUP_FILES=(integer)
Added runtime config parameter to disable all logging(ENABLE_LOGGING=false)
Fixed issues with Pegasus adapter and possible excess memory use
Extended unit and test provider tests
Added general option to all gen... utilities (-F) to get classlist from file
Minor performance enhancements
Continued improvement of documentation with changes to header files, additional readme files and more examples in test providers(/li>

Release Notes and the ChangeLog (cimple/ChangeLog) inside the distribution. The ChangeLog in the root directory provides a detailed list of changes.

Note that release notes were not consistently written for interim versions 2.0.8 - 2.0.16 The Using CIMPLE guide has not been updated for this version. The latest vers corresponds to version 2.0.16. USAGE CHANGES;

Added compile and runtime parameters as defined above. The default if these paramters are not included is the same behavior as previous versions. Thus, if limits on logging are not added to runtime config (.cimplerc) CIMPLE creates a single growing log file. If log size limits are set, it backups the log file to (... .1, .2, etc.) each time the size limit is reached and deletes any log files with .x larger than MAX_LOG_BACKUP_FILES. If ENABLE_LOGGING not set in .cimplerc, logging is enabled and the default for the compile option --enable-adapter-trace is false.

cimple-1.1.0.tar.gz
cimple-1.1.0.zip

September 7, 2007

Release notes:

CAUTION: this version changes the representation of instance and reference array parameters (in extrinsic methods) from this form:
```
const Array<Instance*>& param,
```
To this form:
```
const Property< Array<Instance*> >& param,
```
This was necessary to permit null arrays of these types to be represented.
As always, regenerate your classes, providers, and modules with genclass, genprov, genmod (or just use genproj). Your providers will be automatically patched. Minor changes will be required to providers currently using instance arrays or reference arrays. This involves modifying such parameters from this form:
```
param
```
To this form:
```
param.value
```
This release fixes all known bugs related to embedded instances.
This release also fixes a bug in the Default C++ provider adapter, which caused indications to always be delivered to the "root/cimv2" namespace. This caused indication providers registered for other namespaces to deliver their indications on the wrong namespace (root/cimv2). Accordingly indication listeners failed to receive the indications.

Reworked build system to perform dual builds of static/shared libraries.
Deprecated timer() method from provider interface.

cimple-0.99.12-beta.tar.gz

May 26, 2006

New in this release:

New CIMOM interface, which allows providers to send the following requests to the CIMOM (which redirects the call to the appropriate provider or repository).
- Get-instance
- Enumerate-instance
- Create-instance
- Modify-instance
- Delete-instance
New routine for parsing CIM model paths into CIMPLE instances.
New Ref<> smart pointer for automatically disposing of CIMPLE instances (employs reference counting scheme).
Revised class generation scheme, which puts a meta-repository back pointer into every meta-class (NOTE: YOU MUST REGENERATE ALL CLASSES WHEN UPGRADING TO THIS RELEASE).
Reworked instance layout so that instances have portable data alignment (this has no effect yet but will later permit meta-classes to be safely transmitted between platforms).
Experimental instance serialization/deserialization.

Click here to see the release notes.

cimple-0.99.0-beta.tar.gz

March 30, 2006

This release contains the new Pegasus provider adapter, which enables CIMPLE providers to run under a standard Pegasus CIMOM (without having to apply patches). The adapter implements the standard Pegasus provider interfaces, which allows CIMPLE providers to behave as ordinary Pegasus providers.
This release also continues to support the CMPI provider adapter, which is now smaller (a total of 25 kilobytes) and easier to configure (just inject a macro into module.cpp and link the CMPI adapter library).
