Thanks for the pointer. How would you go about mapping this in
JackRabbit? Is this WebDAV extension supported by the bulk of WebDAV
clients (or does it come for free as a function of HTTP? Sorry I haven't
been able to read all the way through it yet :) ) Would this work if
All client should be able to follow the link; it's just an HTTP-level
redirect. Most clients will have problems displaying the links in a
directory, though.
you were navigating to several folders below the nt:linkedFolder?
So for example,
http://server/wrkspc/wow
was a linkedFile to the 'hello' in
http://server/wrkspc/hello/again/image.gif
would,
http://server/wrkspc/wow/again/image.gif still work?
It's possible to make this work (SAP KM's WebDAV server does that).
Also, I'm wondering if this functionality could be implemented by adding
custom hooks to a DavLocatorFactory, or one of the other interfaces in
the nearby packages. So you could essentially add a custom hook to
resolve the node that should be looked up if it contained
nt:linkedFile's without necessarily redirecting. I'm pretty new to
these API's so any suggestions are really appreciated.
Thanks!
