Michael Osipov commented on WAGON-583:
--------------------------------------
Still valid.
> WebDavWagon and tests do not adhere to RFC 4918
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: WAGON-583
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WAGON-583
> Project: Maven Wagon
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wagon-webdav
> Affects Versions: 3.3.4
> Reporter: Michael Osipov
> Priority: Major
>
> While working on release 3.4.0 I have noticed several issues (non-exhaustive)
> with the {{WebDavWagon}}:
> * On a {{PUT}} request 409 is ignored when parent collections do not exist.
> * Redirects on {{MKCOL}} are competely ignored because not the relocation is
> not passed to {{mkdirs()}}, but the original path.
> * Status code management from {{MKCOL}} are incomplete.
> * Most tests treat WebDAV like HTTP which is wrong. {{MKCOL}} requests are
> answered with 404.
> They are likely many other issues I did not discover or already forgot. A
> serious amount of time needs to be invested to make this Wagon decently
> compatible with real world servers and along with real world tests.
> Therefore, I propose following options:
> * Bring this on par with the regular {{HttpWagon}}
> * Deprecate in 3.x and remove in 4.0.0
> * Mark it especially as unmaintained (abandoned) from 3.x
