Hi,

I have some more qualifier clauses working:

- MinValue and MaxValue pair for integer ranges
- MinLen and MaxLen for string sizes

At this point, all important qualifiers that are
actually in use in CIM v2.14 classes and Printer
MIB v2 are being translated and placed in the
correct order.

I'll start the edits (mostly Status) to create
CIM_PrintOutputTray.mof (the row class).

Hopefully give to Rick in time to run mofpretty
(reformat Description lines) and create the
corresponding CR by this Thursday's telecon.

Cheers,
- Ira

Hi,

As I told Rick on the phone yesterday, I've now got
CIM MOF classes for tables (we're not using them)
and rows (we are) and properties for scalar/columnar
objects and textual conventions that include:

- Description
- ValueMap (enums integers)
- Values (enum labels)
- MappingStrings (formatted ptr to Printer MIB object)
- CIM MOF type and property name declaration

I'm working on adding support for string size limits
(MINLEN, MAXLEN) and integer ranges (MINVALUE,
MAXVALUE).

Then I'll machine-generate one MOF for all Type 2
textual conventions (IANA-PRINTER-MIB) and one MOF
for Type 1 TCs and table/row/scalar/columnar objects
(Printer-MIB) in RFC 3805.

Then I'll cut-and-paste and complete my action item
to write the CIM_PrintOutputTray class (with the
exploded five SubUnitStatus properties).

Cheers,
- Ira

Hi,

Yesterday, I got the first clean, warning-free, compile
in some months of my MIB translation tool.

ValueMap and Values clauses for all textual conventions
and simple objects in Printer MIB came out correctly.

Considerable work remains to be done, but there's now
some light at the end of the tunnel.

Cheers,
- Ira
