Interface VersionControlledResource

All Superinterfaces:

DavResource, DeltaVResource, VersionableResource

public interface VersionControlledResource
extends VersionableResource

The VersionControlledResource represents in contrast to the VersionableResource a resource, that has already been put under version-control. This resource can be checked-in, checked-out and has its own version history.

RFC 3253 defines the following required properties for a version-controlled resource (vc-resource):

• DAV:auto-version
• DAV:version-history (version-history)
• DAV:workspace (workspace)
• DAV:version-controlled-configuration (baseline)
• all DeltaV-compliant resource properties.

checked-in vc-resource:

• DAV:checked-in

checked-out vc-resource:

• DAV:checked-out
• DAV:predecessor-set
• DAV:checkout-fork (in-place-checkout or working resource)
• DAV:checkin-fork (in-place-checkout or working resource)
• DAV:merge-set (merge)
• DAV:auto-merge-set (merge)
• DAV:unreserved (activity)
• DAV:activity-set (activity)

If the Version-Controlled-Collection feature is supported (see section 14 of RFC 3253) the following computed property is required:

• DAV:eclipsed-set

If the Baseline feature is supported (see section 12 of RFC 3253), a version- controlled resource may represent a 'configuration' rather than a single resource. In this case the RFC defines the following required properties:

• DAV:baseline-controlled-collection
• DAV:subbaseline-set (if the configuration resource is checked-out)

In addition a version-controlled resource must support the following METHODS:

• VERSION-CONTROL
• MERGE (merge)
• all DeltaV-compliant resource METHODS.

checked-in vc-resource:

• CHECKOUT (checkout-in-place)
• UPDATE (update)
• all version-controlled resource METHODS.

checked-out vc-resource:

• CHECKIN (checkout-in-place or working-resource)
• UNCHECKOUT (checkout-in-place)
• all DeltaV-compliant resource METHODS.

Constant Field Values

AUTO_VERSION

static final DavPropertyName AUTO_VERSION

The DAV:auto-version property determines how it responds to a method that attempts to modify its content or dead properties. Possible responses include various combinations of automated checkout, write lock and checkin as well as failure until the resource is explicitly checked-out.
See RFC 3253 for a detailed description.

VERSION_HISTORY

static final DavPropertyName VERSION_HISTORY

The computed property DAV:version-history identifies the version history resource for the DAV:checked-in or DAV:checked-out version of this version-controlled resource.
The property is defined to have the following format:

 <!ELEMENT version-history (href)>
 

CHECKED_IN

static final DavPropertyName CHECKED_IN

The DAV:checked-in property appears on a checked-in version-controlled resource, and identifies the base version of this version-controlled resource. This property is removed when the resource is checked out, and then added back (identifying a new version) when the resource is checked back in.
This property is defined to have the following format:

 <!ELEMENT checked-in (href)>
 

CHECKED_OUT

static final DavPropertyName CHECKED_OUT

The DAV:checked-out property identifies the base version of this resource. It is the same that was identified by the DAV:checked-in property at the time the resource was checked out. This property is removed when the resource is checked in.
This property is defined to have the following format:

 <!ELEMENT checked-out (href)>
 

See Also:

CHECKED_IN

PREDECESSOR_SET

static final DavPropertyName PREDECESSOR_SET

The DAV:predecessor-set property of a version-controlled resource points to those version resources, that are scheduled to become the predecessors of this resource when it is back checked-in. This property is not protected, however a server may reject attempts to modify the DAV:predecessor-set of a version-controlled resource.
This property is defined to have the following format:

 <!ELEMENT predecessor-set (href+)>
 

See Also:

checkin(), VersionResource.PREDECESSOR_SET

CHECKIN_FORK

static final DavPropertyName CHECKIN_FORK

This property determines the DAV:checkin-fork property of the version that results from checking in this resource.

CHECKOUT_FORK

static final DavPropertyName CHECKOUT_FORK

This property determines the DAV:checkout-fork property of the version that results from checking in this resource.

MERGE_SET

static final DavPropertyName MERGE_SET

This property identifies each version that is to be merged into this checked-out resource. This property is set, whenever a MERGE request with the DAV:no-auto-merge flag succeeded. The client then must confirm each single merge by removing the version from the DAV:merge-set or moving it the the versions DAV:predecessor-set.
This property is defined to have the following format:

 <!ELEMENT merge-set (href*)>
 

See Also:

merge(MergeInfo)

AUTO_MERGE_SET

static final DavPropertyName AUTO_MERGE_SET

The DAV:auto-merge-set property identifies each version that the server has merged into this checked-out resource. The client should confirm that the merge has been performed correctly before moving a URL from the DAV:auto-merge-set to the DAV:predecessor-set of a checked-out resource.
This property is defined to have the following format:

 <!ELEMENT auto-merge-set (href*)>
 

See Also:

merge(MergeInfo)

UNRESERVED

static final DavPropertyName UNRESERVED

DAV:unreserved is a property for a checked-out resource, if the server supports the activity feature.
It indicates whether the DAV:activity-set of another checked-out resource associated with the version history of this version-controlled resource can have an activity that is in the DAV:activity-set property of this checked-out resource.
A result of the requirement that an activity must form a single line of descent through a given version history is that if multiple checked-out resources for a given version history are checked out unreserved into a single activity, only the first CHECKIN will succeed. Before another of these checked-out resources can be checked in, the user will first have to merge into that checked-out resource the latest version selected by that activity from that version history, and then modify the DAV:predecessor-set of that checked-out resource to identify that version.

This property is defined to have the following format:

 <!ELEMENT unreserved (#PCDATA)>
 PCDATA value: boolean
 

See Also:

VersionResource.ACTIVITY_SET

ACTIVITY_SET

static final DavPropertyName ACTIVITY_SET

DAV:activity-set is a property for a checked-out resource, if the server supports the activity feature.
This property determines the DAV:activity-set property of the version that results from checking in this resource.

See Also:

VersionResource.ACTIVITY_SET

ECLIPSED_SET

static final DavPropertyName ECLIPSED_SET

If the 'Version-Controlled-Collection Feature' is supported the DAV:eclipsed-set property present on a collection identifies all internal members that are not version-controlled and hide a vc internal member with the same name.

This property is defined to have the following format:

 <!ELEMENT eclipsed-set (binding-name*)>
 <!ELEMENT binding-name (#PCDATA)>
 PCDATA value: URL segment
 

See Also:

VersionResource.VERSION_CONTROLLED_BINDING_SET

BASELINE_CONTROLLED_COLLECTION

static final DavPropertyName BASELINE_CONTROLLED_COLLECTION

If the 'Baseline' feature is supported, DAV:baseline-controlled-collection is a required property of any version-controlled resource, that represents a 'configuration'. It identifies the collection that contains the version-controlled resources whose versions are tracked by this configuration.

This property is defined to have the following format:

 <!ELEMENT baseline-controlled-collection (href)>
 

Note that the DAV:baseline-controlled-collection represents a HrefProperty

See Also:

for the corresponding property, that is required for all resources that are contained in this version-controlled-configuration.

SUBBASELINE_SET

static final DavPropertyName SUBBASELINE_SET

This property is mandatory for all checked-out version-controlled-configuration resources. It determines the DAV:subbaseline-set property of the baseline that results from checking in this resource.

This property is defined to have the following format:

 <!ELEMENT subbaseline-set (href*)>
 

Note that the DAV:baseline-controlled-collection represents a HrefProperty

See Also:

BaselineResource.SUBBASELINE_SET
