I am sponsoring this update to LSARC 2008/689 for Muktha Narayan. It updates
that case to import additional interfaces from:
Pegasus CIMOM additional libraries and schemas - LSARC/2009/007
(an update to LSARC 2008/040)
I have marked it closed approved automatic, but I can also set a timer
if an ARC member so desires.

2. Project Summary
2.1 Project Description
This project updates the package of konkretcmpi 0.8.7
in the SFW consolidation.
4. Technical Description:
KonkretCMPI is an opensource tool for rapidly developing CMPI
(Common Manageability Programming Interface) providers in C.
Developers using KonkretCMPI have several advantages. It generates
concrete type-safe C interfaces for manipulating CIM elements. It
provides complete default implementations for many provider operations.
Supplies convenience functions for working with CMPI. It generates the
initial CMPI provider skeletons from MOF (Managed Object Format). It
builds on CMPI rather than introducing a new provider interface. It does
not impose run-time library dependencies. The footprint of the providers
produced is small. Also the development effort is greatly reduced.
KonkretCMPI has recently released a newer version 0.8.7 in Oct 2008.
Its earlier version 0.8.6 was released in August 2008.

The SUNWkonkretcmpi package has build time dependency on the CMPI headers
provided by the SUNWcimserveru package. Though SUNWkonkretcmpi does not
have a direct runtime dependency on SUNWcimserveru and SUNWcimserverr
packages, the end users who use the SUNWkonkretcmpi binaries would require
the SUNWcimserveru and SUNWcimserverr packages to use the generated code.
