Namespace Management http://www.zope.org/Members/mkerrin/WebDAVProposal/wikipage_view Here I define how, and why, I am planning to manage a WebDAV namespace. This includes how to find which properties are defined on a object, and what widget to use to display the property, and how to extend an already registered WebDAV namespace. My goal for all this has being to develop zope.app.dav to a point where it can handle all of the WebDAV protocol details according to the RFC2518 specification, while only requiring a minimal knowledge of WebDAV from developers who just wish to integrate WebDAV protocol into there application. Michael, this is also an excellent proposal. I really like it! I think with this and the other proposal, the Zope 3 WebDAV story will look really good. The only outstanding problem is with the arbitrary namespace data that we might receive. Have you thought about that already? I don't want to add more work, so if you do not want to think about this, then just ignore the question. :-) Regards, Stephan -- Stephan Richter CBU Physics Chemistry (B.S.) / Tufts Physics (Ph.D. student) Web2k - Web Software Design, Development and Training ___ Zope3-dev mailing list Zope3-dev@zope.org Unsub: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/options/zope3-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

From the POV of having implemented the current webdav namespace support, I really enjoy the proposals. They make use of some features that were not present/too obscure when the initial implementation was done and solve the major glitches that I've found. +1. -- Sidnei da Silva Enfold Systems, LLC. http://enfoldsystems.com ___ Zope3-dev mailing list Zope3-dev@zope.org Unsub: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/options/zope3-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

I think I need to play with some test implementation just to make sure. PROPFIND and PROPPATCH will know if a property is dead or not, considering that they are responsible for finding the correct namespace utility, so they could ask for standard dead namespace management utility. This utility can then generate on the fly a dead WebDAV widget and probable a dead property field and then everything continues has normal. I hope :-) To be honest I was a bit caught up in all the WebDAV namespace / specs that I forgot about dead properties until sometime early this week. But I am confident that I can get something alone these lines working without to much trouble. Michael -- Michael Kerrin 55 Fitzwilliam Sq., Dublin 2.
