Hello there, I'm trying (fighting and learning, bah ;)) to add WebDAV
support to a ServerResource. To test, I'm using the Nautilus/GNOME
"Connect to Server" WebDAV client. I've seen that 1st an OPTIONS
(HTTP) request is issued, then a PROPFIND (DAV) request is issued.
My resource has options() overriden and it's being called properly;
however, there's no propfind() method in ServerResource, so reading
the docs a bit I've found that to implement handlers for 'new' methods
(or for not-yet-handled-by-any-out-of-the-box-handler method), simply
a handleMethodName() is needed, so I've added handlePropfind() to my
resource, like this:
public Representation handlePropfind() throws ResourceException {
return new StringRepresentation("PROPFIND called!");
}
And I'm seeing this on the logs (together with the error message of
the DAV client stating "the method is not supported by the requested
resource URI", without saying *which* method is not supported, but I
know it's PROPFIND, from the logs):

So, the OPTIONS request is succeeding, but the PROPFIND one is not,
even if there is a handlePropfind() in the resource.
Restlet 2.0M6 here, and my work on DAV support is being based on Rob
Heitman's Dav1VFSResource class, which seems to be the only
'documented' stuff about how DAV clients work.
Thanks in advance for your help
