http://ietf.cse.ucsc.edu:8080/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=213 ------- Additional Comments From geoffrey.clemm@us.ibm.com 2006-02-04 10:48 ------- A use case for supporting depth-infinity PROPFIND occurs in fine-grained repositories (such as those defined in JSR-170), in which individual XML nodes are modeled as resources. In this case, although a Depth:infinity PROPFIND on the root of the entire repository would probably be rejected, a Depth:infinity PROPFIND on the root node of an XML document will be very common (since one wouldn't want to do a separate PROPFIND for every XML node to retrieve an XML document). To make this useful for a generic client, it would be desireable to have a DAV:can-depth-infinity-propfind property on a collection, so that a generic client can identify those cases where it can retrieve the rest of that sub-tree in one request. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact.
