[Xen-cim] Provider Registration

[Jim Fehlig <jfehlig@xxxxxxxxxx>]

OK, after looking at provider-register.sh and various packages in the 
sblim project it appears that it is common to use the provider qualifier 
in class definitions.  I would like to add the qualifier to each class 
definition if there are no objections.
Along the same lines, the provider name (specified in calls to macro 
CM*MIStub in the various implementation files) contains 
<ClassName>Provider causing the macro to create a function named 
<ClassName>Provider_Create_InstanceMI.  OpenWBEM is expecting the name 
to be <ClassName>_Create_InstanceMI - from the provider qualifier I have 
specified presumably.  But the qualifier must contain the name of 
library providing the instrumentation.  So I would like to remove the 
"Provider" suffix from all calls to CM*MIStub.  This change would also 
have to be made in the corresponding .registration files correct?  Any 
objections to this change?
If there are no objections I will make these changes and figure out how 
to use hg to commit them.
BTW, I talked to the OpenWBEM developers about adding a better provider 
registration mechanism.  It is on their todo list.  They plan on using 
some standard that is part of the Interop schema within CIM.  I'm not 
familiar with this spec or its state.
Regards,
Jim
