SBLIM JSR48 CIM Client 2.2.0

Today the SBLIM project has released the JSR48 CIM Client for Java version 2.2.0. It is fully compliant with the final JSR48 1.0.0 specification. In order to comply, several APIs were removed while several others changed their behavior. Please see the following for more information:

http://sblim.sourceforge.net/cim-client2-v22-doc/org/sblim/cimclient/doc-files/history.html

Version 2.2.0 also contains several new features:

* One new internal API - WBEMClientSBLIM.enumerateNamespaces - can be used to obtain a CloseableIterator of namespaces (#3516848)
* One new internal API - WBEMClientSBLIM.isActive - can be used to determine if the client is active (initialized and not closed) or inactive (#3522904)
* A new Java property - sblim.wbem.httpWwwAuthenticateInfo - can be used to specify the WWW-Authenticate info to use when sending the first HTTP request to a server (#3524050)M/li>
* A new sample - Jsr48IndicationTester - demonstrates a general purpose indication test program with a command line interface (#3529066)
* Four new internal APIs - LogAndTraceManager.addCIMXMLTraceListener, removeCIMXMLTraceListener, clearCIMXMLTraceListeners, and getCIMXMLTraceListeners - can be used to trace CIM-XML requests and responses (#3554738)

Version 2.2.0 also contains several changes that might affect existing applications:

* The JSR48 API CIMObjectPath.toString() has been enhanced to produce consistent output - this may result in different output from previous releases, but the API documentation already states "This method is intended to be used only for debugging purposes. The format of the value returned may vary between implementations." (#3510090)
* The internal classes WBEMAuthenticationException and WBEMTransportException have been deleted after being deprecated in version 2.1.0.(#3525128)
* The internal API CIMResponse.isSuccessul has been deleted after being deprecated in version 2.1.1.(#3525135)
* The internal constant WBEMConstants.PROTOCOL_CIMXML has been deleted after being deprecated in version 2.1.3.(#3525138)
* The internal constant WBEMConstants.PROTOCOL_CIMXML has been deleted after being deprecated in version 2.1.3.(#3525138)
* The internal API CIMDeleteNameSpaceOp.getNamespace has been deleted after being deprecated in version 2.1.5.(#3525145)
* The internal API CIMGetClassOp.getPropertyLis has been deleted after being deprecated in version 2.1.0.(#3525150)
* The JSR48 properties PROP_ENABLE_CONSOLE_LOGGING and PROP_ENABLE_FILE_LOGGING are now levels ("OFF", "ALL", etc.) instead of "0" and "1" (#3521157)
* The internal API WBEMListenerSBLIM.getInstance has been deleted, use "new WBEMListenerSBLIM" instead (#3529062)
* Two new Java properties - sblim.wbem.sslClientPeerVerification and sblim.wbem.sslListenerPeerVerification - can be used to control SSL peer authentication for client/listener; users who had previously enabled client/listener peer verification by setting the value of javax.net.ssl.trustStore will additionally have to set one or both of these new properties to a non-default value in order to enable peer verification (see Getting started with secure connections and Getting started with secure indications for details) (#3536399)
