Bind with accents are not working well.
I have created a resource /slide/files/test้ Then i created a bind named /slide/files/test้้ In the internet browser, i can see : test%C3%A9%C3%A9/ <http://localhost:8081/slide/files/test%25C3%25A9%25C3%25A9> The Java code : HttpURL oHttpURL = new HttpURL("http://localhost:8081/slide/"); oHttpURL.setUserinfo("root", "root"); WebdavResource r_oWebdavResource = new WebdavResource(oHttpURL); r_oWebdavResource.bindMethod( "/slide/files/test้", "/slide/files/test้้"); oWebdavResource.close(); The http request : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><D:propfind xmlns:D="DAV:"><D:prop><D:displayname/><D:getcontentlength/><D:getcontenttype/><D:resourcetype/><D:getlastmodified/><D:lockdiscovery/></D:prop></D:propfind>BIND /slide/files HTTP/1.1 Authorization: Basic ************ User-Agent: Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.0-rc2 Host: localhost:8082 Cookie: $Version=0; JSESSIONID=1FA963D1E55AA8CC5D0640E528DCFE19; $Path=/slide Content-Length: 150 Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 Overwrite: F <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><D:bind xmlns:D="DAV:"><D:segment>test%C3%A9%C3%A9</D:segment><D:href>/slide/files/test%C3%A9</D:href></D:bind> All other methods( mkcol, move, renamed...) work well with accents.
