Hi all Thanks for great new version. I just want to share very first test of BaseX as WebDAV server. It works with BaseX version 7.0!!!
1. Started BaseX GUI 2. Imported directory with 12000 xml files as new database named jsdi 3. started basexhttp.bat 4. stopped BaseX GUI 5. went to browser to http://localhost:8984/webdav/ and nothing there found (but no error either) 6. Created new network place to show content of WebDAV repository (see instructions here http://kb.iu.edu/data/araf.html#xp) 7. Browsing new network place on Windows A bit slow, but there are 12000 files, so no surprise 8. Created new folder there named subdir and dragged-dropped there another 4 xml files (these files have other elements then original ones) 9. Opening BaseX GUI 10. Searching for the elements from new files - and they are found.
My first feeling is - Impressive

Hi Jan,
thanks again for your positive feedback!
started basexhttp.bat went to browser to http://localhost:8984/webdav/ and nothing there found (but no error either)
True; at this point, we could return some explanatory feedback. Not sure, though, if this is supported by Milton, our WebDAV API.
Created new network place to show content of WebDAV repository (see instructions here)
I've added some instructions on Windows XP to our Wiki:
http://docs.basex.org/wiki/WebDAV
Browsing new network place on Windows A bit slow, but there are 12000 files, so no surprise
Yes, that's a problem specific to the mediocre Windows WebDAV clients. The BaseX WebDAV implementation itself is pretty fast. For 12000 files, it should usually take around 20-50 ms to deliver all meta data.
Personally, I use Total Commander (imho, the best Windows product ever written) and its WebDAV plugin to connect to BaseX.
My first feeling is - Impressive
More feedback is welcome, Christian
Hi Christian Thanks for hint of webdav cliane (total commander). I will have to try it. In fact, I am living inside of Google Chrome and Total Commander. Do not take me wrong - I think, that empty response on WebDAV url is ok. It is considered to be sw interface, not a GUI.
