Subject: Server-side WebDAV API

Hi,
 
I'm still have some doubt to misuse slide as an pure API
for Server-side WebDAV. Do I have any possibility to
implement some alternative Helper classes to interact with
the high-level interface of an existing Content Management
System?
Because of the possibility to send a move-Statement (or
some other structure manipulating function) directly
to the repository (CMS), it's quite hard to work at the
low-level store layer.
Or did anyone know a more suitable API for these needs?
 
My intention is to access a CMS (that is not WebDAV enabled)
through a WebDAV Servlet. (some abstract description ;-)
 
You have two options here, depending on what features you want.
- If you only want legacy WebDAV level 2 support, without anything fancy, you can use Tomcat 4 and write a JNDI directory context which would access your repository.
- For more advanced WebDAV support, you can use Slide. The interfaces you need to implement are in the org.apache.slide.store package, and there are stores examples in src/stores.
