hi together,
first of all thanks for this great piece of software!
my context:
i want to use vfs to search and - if existing - access files on my
server via webdav. as stated on the homepage i use:
commons-httpclient-2.0.2.jar
commons-logging-1.1.1.jar
commons-vfs-sandbox-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
jakarta-slide-webdavlib-20050629.161100.jar
jdom-1.0.jar
my problem:
- my little test program (see below) WORKS fine IF THE FILE i want to
resolve EXISTS on the server (APACHE or JACKRABBIT deployed in tomcat).
- IF THE FILE DOES NOT EXIST
- it IS STILL WORKING on APACHE as my weddav server.
- it DOES NOT WORK on JACKRABBIT as my server. see exception below.
the reason:
in WebdavFileObject.setDavResource(WebdavResource resource) the server
is asked via the OptionsMethod which methods it understands for the
encoded path of a potentially non existing file. i setup a proxy in
between. see the complete results at the end of my mail.
apache returns: OPTIONS,MKCOL,PUT,LOCK
jackrabbit returns: OPTIONS, GET, HEAD, POST, TRACE, PROPFIND,
PROPPATCH, MKCOL, COPY, PUT, DELETE, MOVE, LOCK, UNLOCK, VERSION-CONTROL
WebdavFileObject traverses each returned method and if it encounters
"COPY" it assumes that the file exists. however, this is not true for
jackrabbit.
now, which code is wrong? the one of jackrabbit (i looked into it but
couldn't find the right place) or the one of vfs. is there a workaround
or something else i can do?
thanks,
stephan
TEST PROGRAM:
DefaultFileSystemManager mgr = new DefaultFileSystemManager();
mgr.addProvider("file", new DefaultLocalFileProvider());
mgr.addProvider("webdav", new WebdavFileProvider());
mgr.init();
FileObject file = mgr.resolveFile(PATH-TO-NON-EXISTING-FILE-ON-SERVER);
if (file.exists()) { // THAT'S WHERE THE EXCEPTION OCCURS!!!
...
}
