hi darren
since i'm neither expert for the DASL basicsearch nor for
the query languages defined by JSR170, i can't help you
with the conversion.
the reason why no utilities for the DAV:basicsearch
is available:
- up to now, we needed the webDAV SEARCH for the remoting
purpose only. therefore, i was looking for a possibility to
transport a jsr170 query
- consequently, there was no need to convert the query statement
from XPath/SQL to DAV:basicsearch grammer and back.
however, for the limited usage of the internet-search-protocol
we had, i tried to be close the draft:
- DAV:searchrequest contains a single child element specifying
the query language to be used.
quote from the draft:
"For DAV:searchrequest, the definition of search criteria, the result
record, and any other details needed to perform the search depend on the
individual search grammar."
- For me passing the query statement as text element inside the
single child-element of the DAV:search-request, seems quite
natural.
- in contrast, building the multistatus response to respond
to the SEARCH request, may depend on your dav implementation
on top of the JCR repository:
for a 'common' webdav server focusing on 'files and folders'
(such as e.g. the simple server), the query-result returned
from the JSR170 api would possibly need some adjustment, since
the matching nodes may represent some internal child node
of structure, that gets exposed as resource in the webdav view.
kind regards
angela

Subject: Xpath example to replace basicsearch
If basicsearch is not working, can someone help with an
example of what an equivalent xpath query would be?
Old DASL basicsearch query:
String queryssn = "<D:searchrequest xmlns:D=\"DAV:\">" +
" <D:basicsearch xmlns:F=\"FAX\">" +
"<D:select>" +
"<D:allprop/>" +
"</D:select>" +
"<D:from>" +
" <D:scope>" +
" <D:href>/slide/files/</D:href>" +
" <D:depth>infinity</D:depth>" +
" </D:scope>" +
" </D:from>" +
" <D:where>" +
" <D:eq>" +
" <D:prop><F:ORIGINNUMBER/></D:prop>" +
" <D:literal>555-555-5555</D:literal>" +
" </D:eq>" +
" </D:where>" +
" </D:basicsearch>" +
"</D:searchrequest>";
Looking at the SearchInfo class, below is the basic example
-- but I don't know how to convert the above to an equivalent:
String jackrabbitquery=
"<d:searchrequest xmlns:d=\"DAV:\"
dcr:=\"http://www.day.com/jcr/webdav/1.0\";>" +
"<dcr:xpath>//sv:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:name='myapp:paragraph']</dcr:xpath>"
+ "</d:searchrequest>";
Can someone write up a tutorial and offer examples of how to
use this custom DASL searching mechanism? I, and maybe
others, would prefer <basicsearch> functionality but until
then kinda need a primer on how to use this version of DASL.
Thanky,
-D
