RE: [PHP-DEV] new webdav patch

thanks, i had missed the context of the change to SAPI.c. I think the DeltaV methods that can have post data are the following: CHECKOUT, REPORT, VERSION-CONTROL, UPDATE, LABEL, MERGE, BASELINE-CONTROL dave -----Original Message----- From: Christian Stocker [mailto:chregu@bitflux.ch] Sent: Wednesday, August 21, 2002 1:07 PM To: David Viner Cc: Rasmus Lerdorf; php-dev@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP-DEV] new webdav patch Hi > I think allowing php users to process webdav methods in user-space is an > awesome idea.

The problem with PHP was not, that it didn't accept requests other than POST/GET/HEAD, but that it didn't allow post data for those other requests (except OPTION, this was blocked right at the beginning). MKCOL et al don't need post-data, so we can leave them out from the patch (and it is even advised to do so, because you don't want post-data on stuff which doesn't need it :) ) > Also, would you be interested in including the extensions to DAV defined by > DeltaV? This would add the following methods: VERSION-CONTROL, REPORT, > CHECKIN, CHECKOUT, UNCHECKOUT, MKWORKSPACE, UPDATE, LABEL, MERGE, > BASELINE-CONTROL, MKACTIVITY. never worked with deltav, but i see no problem with including them as well (at least the one, which need post-data...). And since subversion is using some of DeltaV, I think/hope it will be much more widespread in the future.. > I'm not terribly familiar w/ the DeltaV stuff, but it seems that if php is > getting the ability to handle dav request, why not include this extension. > You can read more about deltav at > http://www.webdav.org/deltav/protocol/rfc3253.html i'll check it out, when i have some spare time :) chregu
