copying in JCR is fundamentally different from subversion. in subversion the uuid of a resource does not change when you do a copy. In JCR a copied referenceable node *must* get a new UUID. Therefore copy in JCR is potentially costly and cannot be implemented in subversion style.
not necessarily, i made a prototype, that proves otherwise. on copy, you create a new node that references the old one, and just overlays the modified properties. this works quite well and fast. regards, toby -- -----------------------------------------< [EMAIL PROTECTED] >--- Tobias Bocanegra, Day Management AG, Barfuesserplatz 6, CH - 4001 Basel T +41 61 226 98 98, F +41 61 226 98 97 -----------------------------------------------< http://www.day.com >---
