java.lang.Object
  org.apache.xindice.webadmin.webdav.components.Mkcol

All Implemented Interfaces:

DAVComponent

public class Mkcol

extends Object

implements DAVComponent

This class implements the Mkcol command for WebDAV operations on Xindice.

MKCOL command creates new collection at a specified location. There must be no existing collection at the specified location. Newly created collection will be empty. WebDAV specification allows request to have a body that may contain instructions for creating child resources, but this behavior is not suppoted.

Operation possible status codes include:

• 201 (Created) - The collection or structured resource was created in its entirety.
• 403 (Forbidden) - This indicates at least one of two conditions: 1) the server does not allow the creation of collections at the given location in its namespace, or 2) the parent collection of the Request-URI exists but cannot accept members.
• 405 (Method Not Allowed) - MKCOL can only be executed on a deleted/non-existent resource.
• 409 (Conflict) - A collection cannot be made at the Request-URI until one or more intermediate collections have been created.
• 415 (Unsupported Media Type)- The server does not support the request type of the body.
