Hi! I just downloaded your client and found that it will meet most of my needs. I am deploying the latest Jakarta Slide WebDAV server and need a simple client to edit versioned files. I downloaded your most recent jar and have also obtained your latest src from CVS. Can you tell me: 1) If you plan to add an option to unlock a file from the main menu? 2) Plan to add the option to automatically unlock the file once closed from the edit buffer as commented in your Explorer.java: case EditEvent.CLOSE: Debug.trace(this, Debug.DP3, "received EditEvent.CLOSE"); //will probably want to unlock, but that should be configurable break; 3) Did you write the editor yourself, or did you find the code from somewhere else? Just seems really powerful for a simple DAV browser! Nice! From cursory review, it seems that this project has a very clean design and I appreciate the hard work you've put into it so far..=20 Thanks, James |

Locking and unlocking is currently available in the context (i.e., right-click) menu; does it have to be in the main menu as well? =20 > 2) Plan to add the option to automatically unlock the file once closed > from the edit buffer as commented in your Explorer.java: >=20 > case EditEvent.CLOSE: > Debug.trace(this, Debug.DP3, "received EditEvent.CLOSE"); > //will probably want to unlock, but that should be > configurable > break; Actually, it should unlock the file when you close the edit buffer. If it doesn't, you probably are experiencing an interoperability bug. > 3) Did you write the editor yourself, or did you find the code from > somewhere else?

I wrote it, because at that time java editing frameworks, jedit, most notably, were in flux with regard to their APIs, and having to track those changes was a pain. Now it would be a good idea to integrate the webdav library with jedit (although personally I like another java editor, "j", better). >=20 > From cursory review, it seems that this project has a very clean > design and I appreciate the hard work you've put into it so far..=20 Thanks! Please let me know how it goes with Slide and unlocking. js |
