I'd also like to say that I recommend taking a look at the WebDAV servlet that comes with Tomcat - it's much simpler than Slide.

Hi It is possible to do all of the things you want to do with Slide. Firstly, I would read the webDAV specifications at www.webdav.org . There is no documentation on Slide to speak of. There are javadoc pages for each class but these helpfully contain no narrative to describe the contents, and as such are only useful to see what methods there are in each. You can extend the webDAV Servlet, which is included in the source distribution as 'full' (in the distribution) or 'simple' (in the examples) versions. If you want to customise the interface then I suggest using a JSP as your directory listing page, as the Servlet response presentation is quite basic, and in the customary Servlet manner is difficult to change. I don't really get what you mean in your last question, but if you mean "is it effective" then yes, I would say it is adequate and stable. There are several HOWTOs to set up Slide in this forum, including my own... the title of which escapes me, just do a search in the archives ;o) The forum isn't the busiest in the world, but there are still several helpful people that are regular contributors. We will do what we can to help; if you have problems just ask.

Hi: I'm new to WebDav. I'd like to develop functionality of WebDav and integrate into one of our applications which need the following functionality. 1) To navigate documents with in folders using WebDav 2) To create and delete folders 3) To lock, update, delete, move, and rename files. I didn't have the full documentation on how to use slide from Jakarta Slide Project. I've found some interesting documents on the net but I still don't know exactly which way to follow. -Is there any documentation for Slide API? -Do I need to develop a new Servlet over the Slide API or Can I extend slide WebDav Servlet. - Does the slide WebDav Servlet good to get my job done.
