Does Slide support creating Linked Resources? More specifically, instead of copying a resource from one collection to another, can I create a reference/link to the resource? In other words, can the PUT command take the Source URI(/slide/files/Folder1/Fiel1) instead of actual file contents?
I am not sure whether WebDAV has any support for linked resources. Though in the WebDAV specs (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2518.txt), I did read the following: 4.6 Media Independent Links Although HTML resources support links to other resources, the Web needs more general support for links between resources of any media type (media types are also known as MIME types, or content types). WebDAV provides such links. A WebDAV link is a special type of property value, formally defined in section 12.4, that allows typed connections to be established between resources of any media type. The property value consists of source and destination Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs); the property name identifies the link type. 12.4 link XML Element Name: link Namespace: DAV: Purpose: Identifies the property as a link and contains the source and destination of that link. Description: The link XML element is used to provide the sources and destinations of a link. The name of the property containing the link XML element provides the type of the link. Link is a multi-valued element, so multiple links may be used together to indicate multiple links with the same type. The values in the href XML elements inside the src and dst XML elements of the link XML element MUST NOT be rejected if they point to resources which do not exist. <!ELEMENT link (src+, dst+) > 12.4.1 dst XML Element Name: dst Namespace: DAV: Purpose: Indicates the destination of a link Value: URI <!ELEMENT dst (#PCDATA) > 12.4.2 src XML Element Name: src Namespace: DAV: Purpose: Indicates the source of a link. Does anyone know what is WebDAVs link property used for?
