Tamino XML Server Version 9.7
 —  Tamino WebDAV Functionality  —

WebDAV and Tamino

Storing resources in Tamino XML Server is a different paradigm than storing resources using WebDAV. However, complete transparency between both approaches is achieved by additional information, which is required in case:


Access from WebDAV to Tamino

All objects in the WebDAV context are stored in the default WebDAV collection as non-XML. This provides maximum compliance with the WebDAV standard, i.e. without Tamino-specific handling of XML documents.

However, this default behavior can be changed:

A WebDAV directory's default storage location can be changed using a PROPPATCH command with the property <Tamino namespace>:<collection>. A newly-created resource (PUT, COPY) thus inherits the Tamino collection property and is stored to the specified Tamino collection. Note that this applies only to newly-stored objects.
