Revision history for PerlDAV

v0.29 (released 2001/10/31):

• https

  https support as provided from the underlying LWP library has been tested against mod_dav and mod_ssl. Seems to work well. See INSTALLATION for more detail.

• Digest authentication

  Requires MD5 to be installed. See INSTALLATION notes.

• various bug fixes

• more powerful callback support for get()

  Useful for giving progress indicators.

• get() to filehandles and scalar references

  the get() routine now allows you to pass by reference a filehandle or scalar in which to save the contents of the GET request.

• added namespace abbreviations in proppatch

  Thanks to Jeremy for this patch.

• improved redirect handling in Comms.pm

  Thanks to Jeremy for this patch.

v0.23 (released 2001/09/07):

• file globbing for get and put

  HTTP::DAV::get() and HTTP::DAV::put() now supports file globs. This functionality also propagates to dave. This allows you to do the following:

   dav> put /tmp/index*.html
   dav> get index[12].htm? /tmp
  
   ?,* and sets ([]) are supported. See the docs for details.

  HTTP::DAV now requires the Perl module File::Glob which comes bundled with perl5.6 and later.

• bug fix in -overwrite flag in HTTP::DAV::copy/move.

v0.22 (released 2001/09/03)

Complete overhaul of API, recursive get and put, addition of dave.

• dave -- the new command line client

  I wrote dave (the DAV Explorer) because I needed an end-user application that allowed me to "feel" how well the HTTP::DAV API was performing. dave is quite similar to Joe Orton's C-based DAV client called cadaver (yes, imitation is the best form of flattery).

• A new and simpler API

  This new API is accessed directly through the HTTP::DAV module and is based on the core API written in previous releases.

• new methods

  The new API now supports, proppatch, recursive get and put.

• A substantial core API overhaul

  Moving from v0.05 to v0.22 in one release might indicate the amount of work gone into this release.

• A new interoperability test suite

  is now included in PerlDAV. The test suite is built on top of the standard Perl Test::Harness modules. Still in development, the test suite is highlighting interoperability problems with DAV-servers a lot quicker than before. See "the test suite & interoperability" section.
