- Update to 1.2.0
  * Unsupported CIM infrastructure versions returned in CIM-XML
    responses from WBEM servers are now raised as a new exception
    `pywbem.CIMVersionError`, and were previously raised as
    `pywbem.CIMXMLParseError`. Unsupported DTD versions and CIM-XML
    protocol versions returned in CIM-XML responses from WBEM
    servers are now raised as new exceptions
    `pywbem.DTDVersionError` and `pywbem.ProtocolVersionError`, and
    were previously ignored by pywbem. Since these new exceptions
    are derived from `pywbem.VersionError` which is derived from
    `pywbem.VersionError`, this change is only incompatible if such
    unsupported versions were specifically handled by users.
  * The `pywbem.WBEMServer.get_selected_profiles()` method now
    raises `pywbem.ModelError` instead of `KeyError` when required
    properties were found to be missing. This is an incompatible
    change for users that catch this exception. (related to issue
    #2580).
  * The operation recorder support added in pywbem 0.9 as an
    experimental feature was changed to become internal. As part of
    this, the "WBEM operation recording" section has been removed
    from the documentation, the operation recorder specific classes
    are no longer documented, and the operation recorder specific
    attributes and methods of the 'WBEMConnection' class have been
    declared to be internal and have been removed from the
    documentation. The logging support which uses the operation
    recorder remains publicly available. If you are using the
    operation recorder, please create an issue in the issue tracker
    describing how you use it.
  * MOF compiler: Fixed bug where MOF compiler did not correctly
    install a CIM schema in a non-default namespace because it
    tried to get the qualifiers from the default namespace. (see
    issue #2502)
  * Test: Changed dependency to 'typed-ast' to match the needs of
    'astroid' and to install it only on CPython. This allows
    re-enabling PyPy3 on Travis.
  * Test: Pinned psutil to <=5.6.3 on PyPy2+3 to avoid an
    installation error.
  * Test: Increased the minimum version of 'pyzmq' on Python 3.9 to
    19.0.0 to avoid an installation error.
  * Test: Circumvented unicode issue with
    lxml.etree.fromstring()/XML() on Python 3.9 by passing in
    binary strings.
  * Test: Adjusted _format()/_ascii2() testcases to PyPy3 behavior
    with binary vs unicode results.
  * Test: Suppressed pylint warning about 'tracemalloc' methods on
    PyPy.
  * Test: Disabled leaktest in travis also on PyPy3 (in addition to
    PyPy2).
  * Test: Disabled 'make resourcetest' in Travis on Pypy2+3, and
    suppressed Pylint issues about using 'tracemalloc' methods and
    disabled its unit tests.
  * Fixed the bug that pywbem allowed reference typed CIMQualifier
    and CIMQualifierDeclaration objects. DSP0004 disallows
    reference types on qualifiers and qualifier declarations. This
    fix now causes CIM-XML responses received from a WBEM server
    with reference typed qualifier values and qualifier
    declarations to raise `pywbem.CIMXMLParseError` from
    `WBEMConnection` operations.
  * Fixed a `DeprecationWarning` issued by urllib3 about using the
    `whitelist_methods` parameter of `Retry`.
  * Security: Increased minimum version of 'PyYAML' to 5.2 on
    Python 3.4 and to 5.3.1 on Python 2.7 and >=3.5 to address
    security issues reported by safety. The relevant functions of
    'PyYAML' are not used by pywbem, though.
  * Security: Increased minimum version of 'urllib3' to 1.24.2 on
    Python 3.4 and to 1.25.9 on Python 2.7 and >=3.5 to address
    security issues reported by safety. To support these versions
    of 'urllib3', increased minimum version of 'requests' to 2.20.1
    on Python 3.4 and to 2.22.0 on Python 2.7 and >=3.5.
  * Security: Increased minimum versions of several packages that
    are needed only for test or development of pywbem to address
    security issues reported by safety: requests-toolbelt to 0.8.0;
    lxml to 4.6.2 (except for Python 3.4); pylint to 2.5.2 and
    astroid to 2.4.0 on Python >=3.5; typed-ast to 1.3.2 on Python
    3.4; twine to 3.0.0 on Python >=3.6; pkginfo to 1.4.2; bleach
    to 3.1.2 on Python 3.4 and to 3.1.4 on Python 2.7 and Python
    >=3.5.
  * Fixed issue on GitHub Actions with macos by no longer running
    "brew update" in pywbem_os_setup.sh. (issue #2544)
  * Docs: Fixed incorrect attribute name 'provider_classnames' in
    method provider example. (issue #2564)
  * Mitigated the coveralls HTTP status 422 by pinning
    coveralls-python to <3.0.0.
  * Test: Add tests to test_mof_compiler to test for errors where
    the namespace name component of the namespace pragma is
    missing.
  * In `CIMNamespaceProvider.post_register_setup()`, fixed an
    `AttributeError` when accessing the 'Name' property of a CIM
    instance (related to issue #2580).
  * In the `MOFCompiler` class, fixed that if a MOF instance
    already exists, the ModifyInstance operation failed because the
    instance path was not specified. The fix is to construct the
    instance path from the key properties in instance specified in
    MOF. That fix has the limitation that it does not account for
    instance providers that add key properties or that ignore
    provided key properties (e.g. InstanceID). (issue #2586)
  * Corrected issue in pywbem_mock where DeleteQualifier() was not
    checking whether the qualifier was used in any classes in the
    namespace before being deleted. (see #2585)
  * Fixed an incorrect calculation of the min/max values for the
    server response time in the statistics support of pywbem (issue
    #2599)
  * Security - Add safety issue 40072 (lxml version 4.6,3) to
    safety ignore list. No change to pywbem since we apparently do
    not use the affected component (see issue #2645)
  * Test: Pinned decorator package to python <=5.0.0 on Python
    2+3.4 because decorator 5.0.0 does not support python < 3.5
    (see issue #2647)
  * Fix pywem_mock issue with Delete class not calling providers to
    handle the DeleteInstance (see issue #2643)
  * Test: Workaround for BadStatusLine issue in
    test_WBEMListener_send_indications test function. This is not a
    fix for the root cause of the issue. For details, see pywbem
    issue #2659.
  * Fixed installation of 'pywinpty' package on Python 2.7 by
    pinning it to <1.0. It failed because it does not declare its
    supported Python versions. (see issue #2680)
  * Fixed that the test workflow ignored errors that occurred
    during 'make install' and 'make develop', by splitting the
    multiple commands in these steps into separate steps.
  * Finalized the pywbem mock support. (issue #2651)
  * Logging: Added a value 'off' for the log destination in the
    ``pywbem.configure_logging()`` function that disables logging.
    (part of issue #86)
  * Improved exception handling during the parsing of CIM-XML
    responses received from a WBEM server. Exceptions that were
    raised as TypeError or ValueError during the creation of CIM
    objects that are part of the operation result, are now raised
    as pywbem.CIMXMLParseError. Note that this is not an
    incompatible change because users were already potentially
    getting pywbem.CIMXMLParseError exceptions in other cases. (see
    issue #2512)
  * Test: Added CIM-XML testcases in the area of instance paths.
    (see issue #2514)
  * Docs: Clarified that `pywbem.type_from_name()` returns
    `CIMInstanceName` for type name "reference", even though for
    use in CIM method parameters, `CIMClassName` is also valid.
  * Issued a new `pywbem.MissingKeybindingsWarning` warning if a
    `CIMInstanceName` object that does not have any keybindings
    gets converted to CIM-XML by calling its `tocimxml()` method,
    or gets converted to a WBEM URI by calling its `to_wbem_uri()`
    method, or gets parsed from CIM-XML via an INSTANCENAME element
    without keybindings. This is motivated by the fact that DSP0004
    does not allow instance paths without keys (section 8.2.5).
    (See issue #2514)
  * Reduced memory consumption of CIM objects and CIM types by
    defining their attributes to use Python slots. (see issue
    #2509)
  * Reduced memory consumption of CIM objects by using lazy
    initialization of dictionary-type attributes. This resulted in
    significant savings when the attribute is typically unused, for
    example in ``CIMInstance.qualifiers``. (see issue #2511)
  * Added Python 3.9 to the supported Python versions and added
    tests for it on Travis.
  * Added a check for the DTDVERSION attribute value in CIM-XML
    responses from WBEM servers to start with '2.'. A different
    version of the CIM-XML DTD standard DSP0203 was never
    published, so this is not expected to be an incompatible
    change.
  * Unsupported versions for CIM infrastructure, DTD or protocol
    version returned in CIM-XML responses from WBEM servers are now
    raised as new exceptions `pywbem.CIMVersionError`,
    `pywbem.DTDVersionError`, and `pywbem.ProtocolVersionError`,
    respectively. These new exceptions are derived from the
    existing exception `pywbem.VersionError`. Previously,
    unsupported CIM infrastructure versions were raised as
    `pywbem.CIMXMLParseError`, and unsupported DTD or protocol
    versions were ignored by pywbem.
  * Removed the pinning of Pylint to 2.5.2 on Python >=3.5.
    Disabled the following warnings that were newly reported by the
    latest version (2.6.0) of Pylint: 'signature-differs' because
    it does not recognize compatible signature changes;
    'raise-missing-from' and 'super-with-arguments' because these
    issues cannot reasonably be addressed as long as Python 2.7 is
    supported.
  * In the makefile, added an ignore list for issues reported by
    safety along with the reasons why each issue is ignored. This
    allowed enforcing that the safety command reports no issues.
  * Migrated from Travis and Appveyor to GitHub Actions. This
    required several changes in package dependencies for
    development.
  * Docs: Added examples to the `pywbem.siunit()` and
    `pywbem.siunit_obj()` functions.
  * Extend the MOF compiler so that the pywbem_mock can compile MOF
    containing the namespace pragma that defines a namespace other
    than the one defined in the compile_mof_string() or
    compile_mof_file() methods namespace parameter if the namespace
    exists. Extend documentation on use of the namespace parameter
    to reflect the behavior if the MOF contains a namespace pragma.
    Since the code gives precedence to tha pragma over the
    namespace specified in in the namespace parameter, the
    documentation reflects this. (see issue #2256 partial fix).
  * The `pywbem.siunit()` function supported the PUnit format as
    defined in DSP0004. It turned out that the CIM Schema used
    PUnit qualifiers with a slightly extended format where the
    numeric modifiers were the middle instead of just at the end.
    Extened the PUnit format supported by the `siunit()` function
    accordingly. (issue #2574)
  * Improved and fixed the messages in the compile log of class
    `MOFCompiler` and ensured that the target namespace of the
    compiled objects is included in the messages and added messages
    for changes to the target namespace caused by 'pragma
    namespace' directives.
  * The 'mof_compiler' script now displays the compiled objects and
    their target namespace when specifying verbose mode (-v
    option).
  * Improvements in `pywbem_mock.CIMNamespaceProvider` and
    `pywbem.WBEMServer` to more cleanly handle Interop namespaces
    (related to issue #2580).
  * Improvements in the log messages of the `MOFCompiler` class.
    (related to issue #2586)
  * Added a `close()` method to `pywbem.WBEMConnection` that closes
    the underlying session of the 'requests' package. This avoids
    the ResourceWarning 'unclosed socket' that the 'requests'
    package issued so far when the Python process terminates. Added
    the ability for `pywbem.WBEMConnection` to be used as a context
    manager, that closes the connection at the end. (see issue
    #2591)
  * Added a mechanism to suspend the statistics counting of server
    time if one or more operations do not return the server
    response time, in order to prevent incorrect interpretations of
    the counters when only a subset of the operations returned
    server response time. (issue #2603)
  * Added validation tests to pywbem_mock ModifyClass to limit
    classes that can be modified (no subclasses, and no instances
    exist, and correct superclass) (see issue #2447)
  * Docs: Used 'autodocsumm' Sphinx extension for generating
    attribute and method summary tables for classes in the
    documentation. Moved documentation of some base classes into a
    new 'Base Classes' section in the appendix.
  * Added a `conn_close()` method to the `pywbem.MOFCompiler` class
    that closes the underlying connection. Used that function in
    the 'mof_compiler' script to remove a ResourceWarning about
    unclosed sockets. (issue #2610)
  * Added 'make perftest' to run performance tests. At this point,
    the performance tests measure the sending of indications to the
    pywbem.WBEMListener.
  * Test: Added support for end2end testing of WBEM servers based
    on server and vault files of the 'easy-server' Python package.
    The server files can specify WBEM servers and their expected
    supported functions. WBEM servers can be somewhere in the
    network or can be containers on DockerHub which are
    automatically pulled and started. At this point, the
    OpenPegasus container on DockerHub is used and the end2end
    tests are run in the GitHub Actions test workflow on Ubuntu
    (Docker is not available in GHithub Actions on Windows or
    MacOS).
  * Test: Fixed all remaining ResourceWarnings during test. (issue
    #86)
  * Test: Cleaned up DeprecationWarning for the propagation of key
    property values introduced in pywbem 1.1.0. (see issue #2498)
  * Add index section to generated documentation.
  * Fixed new issues reported by pylint 2.7.0. At the same time,
    needed to temporarily pin pylint to <2.7.0 and astroid to
    <2.5.0 due to massive elongation of the run time of pylint in
    the pywbem project.
  * Added tests for pywbem_mock ModifyClass request operation to
    test the validation exceptions and correctness of modified
    class. (see issue #2210)
  * Cleaned up TODOs noted in pywbem and pywbem_mock to fix any
    that were actually bugs, etc. and either create issues or mark
    the others as FUTURE with more explanation.  (See issue #2491)
  * Enforced that the pywbem source code does not contain any TODOs
    (pylint fixme). Note that the pywbem test code may still
    contain TODOs.
  * Removed remove_duplicate_setuptools.py script since the project
    is no longer using Travis.
  * On Python 3.4, the urllib3 package is pinned to <1.25.8 because
    1.25.9 removed Python 3.4 support. As a consequence, `safety
    issue
    <https://github.com/pyupio/safety-db/blob/master/data/insecure_full.json>`_
    38834 cannot be addressed on Python 3.4.

  - Fixed version incompatibilities reported by pip for tox/pluggy,
    ipython/prompt-toolkit, and flake8/pyflakes. (See issue #2153)
  - Fixed the issue where formatting the timezone name of
    a pywbem.MinutesFromUTC object raised NotImplementedError,
    by adding a tzname() method. (see issue #2160)
  - Increased minimum version of ‘six’ from 0.10.0 to 0.12.0
    when on Python 3.8 (or higher). (See issue #2150).
  - Increased minimum version of ‘setuptools’ on Python 3.7
    to 38.4.1 to fix a bug with new format of .pyc files. (See issue #2167).

- Update to 0.17.0:
  - Dev: Fixed installation of Jupyter Notebook on Python 3.4 by defining
    the appropriate minimum versions of the ipython package,
    per Python version. (See issue #2135)
  - Changed the HTTPS support of pywbem.WBEMListener from using
    the deprecated ssl.wrap_socket() function to using the
    ssl.SSLContext class that was introduced in Python 2.7.9.
    This causes more secure SSL settings to be used.
    (See issue #2002)
  - Renamed all sub-modules within the pywbem namespace so they are
    now private (i.e. with a leading underscore).
    This has been done for consistency with the upcoming 1.0.0
    version of pywbem (See issue #1925)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr  2 16:59:28 UTC 2020 - Adam Majer <adam.majer@suse.de>

- Update to 0.16.0:
  - Silenced the MOFCompiler class for verbose=False.
  - Fixed that the MOFCompiler could be created with handle=None to
    work against a local repository. It was documented that way,
    but failed with AttributeError
  - Fixed the error that the MOF compilation of a class could fail but
    the error was not surfaced. This only happened when the MOF compiler
    was invoked against a WBEM server, when the class already existed,
    and when the ModifyClass operation that was attempted in
    this case, failed.
  - Fixed that the CIM-XML payload in log entries was spread over
    multiple lines. The payload is now escaped as a single-line
    Python string.
  - Fixed handling of Unicode string in ca_certs parm of
    WBEMConnection on py2

- Update to 0.8.1
  See http://pywbem.github.io/pywbem/doc/0.8.1/changelog.html for
  the complete list of changes.

  Known issues:
  * Installing PyWBEM on Python 2.6 has a conflict with the 'pbr'
    package from PyPI, resulting in a TypeError: "dist must be a
    Distribution instance". This issue is specific to Python 2.6 and
    does not occur in any of the other supported Python versions
    (2.7, 3.4, 3.5). This issue can be mitigated by uninstalling
    the 'pbr' package, or if that is not possible, by migrating
    to Python 2.7. See issue #26 on GitHub.
  * MOF using names that are reserved keywords will fail to compile
    in the MOF compiler. For example, a CIM property named
    'indication'. See issue #62 on GitHub.
  * The Pulled Enumeration Operations introduced in DSP0200 1.3 are
    not supported in this release. See issue #9 on GitHub.
  * Note that some components of this PyWBEM Client package are still
    considered experimental:
    - The twisted client module twisted_client.py.
    - The Python provider modules cim_provider.py and cim_provider2.py.
    - The CIM indication listener in the irecv directory. See issue
      #66 on GitHub.

  * Added '-d' option to MOF compiler that causes the compiler to perform a
    dry-run and just check the MOF file syntax. This allows to more easily
    detect included MOF files when used together with the '-v' option.
    (Jan Safranek)

  * Added support for non-ASCII (Unicode) characters.  (Michal Minar, Andreas
    Maier)
      
  * Improved information in the message text of some exceptions (TypeError
    and KeyError in cim_obj.py, ValueError in cim_obj.py, and ParseError in
    tupleparse.py).  (Andreas Maier)

  * Moved the definition of the pywbem version from setup.py to __init__.py,
    in order to make it available to programs using pywbem as
    pywbem.__version__.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added support for direct iteration over NocaseDict objects using 'for'
    and 'in' by adding __iter__(), e.g. for use with CIMInstance.properties.
    (Andreas Maier)

  * Added more instance attributes to be shown in repr() on CIMProperty and
    other classes in cim_obj.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added and improved docstring-based documentation in the pywbem modules
    cim_operations, cim_http, cim_obj, cim_types, and the pywbem module.
    (Andreas Maier)

  * Improved the way missing file:// URL support on Windows is handled, by
    now issuing a proper error message instead of stumbling across the
    missing socket.AF_UNIX constant.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Improved the way missing OWLocal authorization with the OpenWBEM server
    is handled on Windows, by now issuing a proper error message instead of
    stumbling across the missing os.getuid() function.  (Andreas Maier)
      
  * Improved Windows portability by no longer attempting to import 'pwd' in
    case the userid is not set in the environment variables that are checked
    when the WBEM server is local.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added support for ExecQuery operation to twisted client.  (Robert Booth)

  * Added get() methods on CIMInstance and CIMInstanceName to step up to the
    statement that they behave like dictionaries w.r.t. properties and key
    bindings.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Improved help text of test_cim_operations.py test program.
    (Andreas Maier)

  * Added an optional Params argument to InvokeMethod(), that is an ordered
    list of CIM input parameters, that preserves its order in the CIM-XML
    request message. This is to accomodate deficient WBEM servers that do
    not tolerate arbitrary order of method input parameters as required by
    the standard. The new argument is optional, making this a backwards
    compatible change of InvokeMethod().  (Andreas Maier)

  * Cleaned up the public symbols of each module by making symbols private
    that are used only internally. Specifically, the following symbols have
    been made private: In cimxml_parse: _get_required_attribute,
    _get_attribute, _get_end_event, _is_start, _is_end. In cim_xml: _text
    (was: Text).  (Andreas Maier)

  * Cleaned up symbols imported by wildcard import by defining __all__ in
    each module with only the public symbols defined in that module (removing
    any symbols imported into the module), except for the following modules
    which define less than the complete set of public symbols in their
    __all__: mof_compiler, twisted_client, tupleparse, cimxml_parse,
    cim_http.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added support for using CDATA section based escaping in any requests sent
    to the WBEM server. The default is still XML entity reference based
    escaping, the CDATA based escaping can be turned on by setting the switch
    _CDATA_ESCAPING accordingly, which is a global variable in the cim_xml
    module.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Simplified the exceptions that can be raised by WBEMConnection methods,
    and improved the information in the exception messages. See description
    of WBEMConnection class for details.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added support for timeouts to WBEMConnection, via a new timeout argument,
   that defaults to no timeout.  (This finally increased the minimum version
   of Python to 2.6.  (Andreas Maier)

  BUG FIXES:

  * Fix syntax error in CIM DTDVERSION error path.  Allow KEYVALUE
    VALUETYPE attribute to be optional as specified in the DTD.
    (Andreas Linke)

  * Added parsing of InvokeMethod return value and output parameters for
    Twisted Python client.  (Tim Potter)

  * Fixed cim_provider2.py to properly support shutdown() and can_unload()
    (called from CMPI cleanup() functions).  Support was recently added
    to cmpi-bindings for this.  (Bart Whiteley)

  * Fixed XML parsing to accept SFCB-style embedded instance parameters.
    (Mihai Ibanescu)

  * Use getpass module instead of pwd to detect local user to fix Win32.
    (Tim Potter)

  * Re-throw KeyError exceptions with capitalised key string instead
    of lower cased version in NocaseDict.__getitem__().  (Tim Potter)

  * Use base64.b64encode() instead of base64.encodestring() in Twisted
    client. (Mihai Ibanescu)

  * Fix missing CIMDateTime import in Twisted client.  (Mihai Ibanescu)

  * Fixed CIMInstanceName rendering to string. It is now possible to pass the
    rendered string value as an instance path argument of a CIM method.
    (Jan Safranek, Michal Minar)

  * For Python providers, fixed the comparsion of the Role parameter in
    association operations to be case insensitive, and removed an erroneous
    test that raised an exception when the property specified in the Role
    parameter was not also in the property list specified by the Properties
    parameter.  (Jan Safranek)

  * For Python providers, converted debug 'print' statements to trace
    messages that end up in the system log.  (Jan Safranek)

  * The CIM-XML parser no longer throws an exception when parsing a
    qualifier declaration.
    Note: The CIM-XML supported by this fix does not conform to DSP0201 so
    far. Further fixes are pending.  (Jan Safranek)

  * Fixed parsing errors for connection URLs with IPv6 addresses, including
    zone indexes (aka scope IDs).  (Peter Hatina, Andreas Maier)

  * Fixed the hard coded socket addressing family used for HTTPS that was
    incorrect in some IPv6 cases, by determining it dynamically.
    (Peter Hatina)

  * Fixed the list of output parameters of extrinsic method calls to be
    returned as a case insensitive dictionary (using cim_obj.NocaseDict).
    (Jan Safranek)

  * Fixed the checking of CIMVERSION attributes in CIM-XML to only verify the
    major version, consistent with DSP0201 (see subclause 5.2.1, in DSP0201
    version 2.3.1).  (Jan Safranek)

  * Fixed error in cim_http.py related to stronger type checking of Python
    2.7. (Eduardo de Barros Lima)

  * Removed erroneous qualifier scopes SCHEMA and QUALIFIER from the MOF
    compiler (see DSP0004).  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fixed debug logging of CIM-XML payload (that is, conn.last_*request/reply
    attributes) for extrinsic method calls, to now be consistent with
    intrinsic method calls.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fixed TOCTOU (time-of-check-time-of-use) error when validating peer's
    certificate.  (Michal Minar)

  * Added a check in the CIMInstanceName constructor that the 'classname'
    argument is not None.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fixed the issue in the CIMProperty constructor that specifying a tuple
    for the 'value' argument was incorrectly detected to be a scalar (and not
    an array).  (Andreas Maier)
    
  * Fixed the issue in the CIMProperty constructor that specifying a
    datetime or timedelta typed value resulted in storing the provided object
    in the 'value' attribute, instead of converting it to a CIMDateTime
    object.  (Andreas Maier)
    
  * Fixed the issue in the CIMProperty constructor that specifying a datetime
    formatted string typed 'value' argument along with type='datetime'
    resulted in storing the provided string object in the 'value' attribute,
    instead of converting it to a CIMDateTime object.  (Andreas Maier)
    
  * Fixed several cases in the CIMProperty constructor of unnecessarily
    requiring the optional arguments 'type', 'is_array', 'embedded_object',
    or 'reference_class'. These optional arguments are now only necessary to
    be provided if they cannot be implied from provided arguments (mainly
    from 'value').  (Andreas Maier)
    
  * Fixed the issue in the CIMProperty constructor that an 'embedded_object'
    argument value of 'object' was changed to 'instance' when a CIMInstance
    typed 'value' argument was also provided.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fixed the issue in the CIMProperty constructor that the first array
    element was used for defaulting the 'type' attribute, without checking
    that for None, causing an exception to be raised in this case.
    (Andreas Maier)
    
  * Added a check in the CIMProperty constructor that the 'name' argument is
    not None.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fixed the issue that the CIMProperty constructor raised only TypeError
    even when the issue was not about types; it now raises in addition
    ValueError.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Changed the exception that is raised in NocaseDict.__setitem__() for
    invalid key types, to be TypeError in instead of KeyError. Updated the
    testcases accordingly.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added checks for more than one argument and for unsupported argument
    types to the constructor of NocaseDict.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fixed incorrectly labeled namespace variables in twisted client.
    (Robert Booth)

  * Fixed that WBEMConnection.last_raw_reply was not set to the current reply
    in case of parsing errors in the reply.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Reintroduced Python 2.6 support in cim_http.HTTPSConnection.connect()
    that disappeared in early drafts of this version:
    - Removed SSLTimeoutError from except list; being a subclass of SSLError,
      it is catched via SSLError.
    - Invoked socket.create_connection() without source_address, if running
      on Python 2.6.
    (Andreas Maier)

   * Fixed bug where HTTP body was attempted ot be read when CIMError header
     is set, causing a hang.  (Andreas Maier)

   * Added CIM-XML declaration support for alternative PyWBEM client based
     on twisted.  (Andreas Maier)
 
   * Added support for Windows to wbemcli.py, by making dependency on HOME
     environment variable optional, and adding HOMEPATH environment variable.
     Also, cleaned up the global namespace of wbemcli.py and made it
     importable as a module.  (Andreas Maier)

   * Fixed errors in generated MOF (e.g. in any tomof() methods):
     - Missing backslash escaping within string literals for \n, \r, \t, \".
     - Representation of REF types was incorrect.
     - '=' in array-typed qualifier declarations was missing.
     - Fixed size indicator was missing in array elements.
     - Qualifiers of method parameters were missing.
     Improvements in generated MOF:
     - Changed order of qualifiers to be sorted by qualifier name.
     - Added empty line before each property and method in the class for
       better readability.
     - Method parameters are now placed on separate lines.
     - Moved generation of method qualifiers from class into method. This
       changes the behavior of CIMMethod.tomof() to now generate the method
       qualifiers.
     (Andreas Maier)

  TESTING:

  * Added support for running the unit test cases without having to be in the
    testsuite directory. This was done by setting up the DTD_FILE path
    correctly for any XML tests.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Improved the quality of assertion messages issued when testcases fail, to
    include context information and types.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added docstrings to test cases.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added testcases for CIMProperty.__init__() to be comprehensive.
    (Andreas Maier)

  * In XML validation tests, added the expected XML root element.
    (Andreas Maier)

  * Added a header to any error messages issued by xmllint.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fix: Merged stderr into stdout for the xmllint invocation, xmllint error
    messages go to stderr and had been dropped before.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fix: The "mkdir -p ..:" command in the comfychair testcase constructor
    created subdirectories named "-p" when running on Windows; replaced that
    command with os.makedirs().  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fix: Replaced the "rm -fr ..." command in the comfychair testcase
    constructor with shutil.rmtree(), in order to better run on Windows.
    (Andreas Maier)
  
  * Fix: In comfychair._enter_rundir(), moved registration of cleanup
    function _restore_directory() to the end, so cleanup happens only if no
    errors happened.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fixed a bug in pywbem/trunk/testsuite/test_tupleparse.py in function
    ParseCIMProperty.runtest(), where the use of real tab characters caused
    a few lines to be incorrectly indented, and as a result, ignored for the
    test.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Improved Windows portability in testsuite: Moved from using the Unix-only
    functions posix.WIFSIGNALED() and posix.WEXITSTATUS() for testing the
    success of subprocess.wait(), to simply testing for 0.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added ability to invoke test_cim_operations.py with comfychair arguments,
    and added printing of exception information if an operation fails.
    (Andreas Maier)

  - clean code:
    
  * Removed dangerous default parameter '{}' from CIMProperty and
    CIMInstanceName, and replaced it with 'None'. To support that, added
    support for initializing an empty NocaseDict object from 'None'.
    (Andreas Maier)

  * In cim_obj, changed the use of the deprecated backticks to using %r in
    the format string (which produces the same result).  (Andreas Maier)

  * In the constructor of CIMInstanceName, added assertions to some paths
    that cannot possibly be taken based on the fact that the keybindings
    attribute is always a NocaseDict. They should be removed at some point.
    (Andreas Maier)

  * Addressed PyLint issues:
    - Consolidated imports at the top of the module (after module docstring),
      consistent with the PEP-8 recommendation.
    - Ensured order of imports: standard, non-standard, pywbem, local (on a
      subset of modules only).
    - Replaced wildcard imports with specific imports, as much as possible.
    - Removed unused imports.
    - Addressed PyLint issues that are related to whitespace, continuation
      indentation, and line length.
    - Replaced all real tab characters with spaces.
    (Andreas Maier)

  PACKAGING / BUILD:

  * Fixed grammatical funkiness in the license text.  No change to actual
    license - still LGPLv2.  (Tim Potter)

  * Added LICENSE.txt file to release.  (Tim Potter)

  * Added LICENSE.txt, NEWS, README and INSTALL files to distribution
    archive.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Fixed inconsistencies in license text in file headers to consistently
    say LGPL 2.1 or higher (The LICENSE.txt file has always been LGPL 2.1).
    (Andreas Maier)

  * Removed confusing section about build from INSTALL file, to scope it just
    to the topic of installation.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Restructured pywbem/trunk subtree to move pywbem package files into a
    pywbem subdirectory.  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added a makefile (invoke 'make help' for valid targets).  (Andreas Maier)

  * Added support for checking the Python source code using PyLint.
    (Andreas Maier)

  * Added support for generating HTML documentation using epydoc, and
    included the documentation into the distribution archive. The syntax
    used in Python docstrings is reStructuredText markdown.   (Andreas Maier)

  LICENSING:
    * Relicensed from the GNU GPLv2 to the GNU LGPLv2.
  API CHANGES:
    * Add a type keyword arg and attribute to CIMQualifier, similar to
      the CIMProperty object, to allow the creation of null qualifiers.
      (Tim Potter) 
    * Remove the toxml() method from CIM object classes.  Use
      tocimxml().toxml() instead which specifies the CIM-XML
      representation of the object. (Tim Potter)
    * CIMDateTime class should now be used instead of datetime.datetime 
      and datetime.timedelta. 
    * Added a new method, CIMInstance.update_existing().  This behaves 
      like update() on a dict, but only assigns new values to existing
      properties.  It skips values for properties not already present
      in the instance.  This is useful for honoring PropertyList within
      python providers. 
  ENHANCEMENTS:
    * Added support for generating Pegasus provider registration MOF in 
      cim_provider.codegen(). (Bart Whiteley)
	* Implemented methods to parse indication export requests.
      (Bart Whiteley)
    * Python provider code generation enhancements.  (Bart Whiteley)
    * Support for Pegasus Local authentication.  (Bart Whiteley)

    * Added support for Pegasus non-compliant EMBEDDEDOBJECT XML attribute. 
      (Bart Whiteley)
    * Added CIMQualifierDeclaration.tomof().  (Bart Whiteley)
    * Added a powerful MOF compiler.  (Bart Whiteley)
    * Support for OpenWBEM password-less local authentication. 
      (Bart Whiteley)
    * Support for embedded objects is described in DSP0201-2.2.0
      (Bart Whiteley)
    * New CIMDateTime class to deal with CIM-isms of datetimes.

      (Bart Whiteley)
    * Add InvokeMethod() support in Twisted Python client. (Tim
      Potter)
