I'm trying to use netboot, and I was under the impression that with v3.2+, you didn't have to compact all the .war, .ear, and .jar files because of the use of the PROPFIND WebDav feature.
From what I can tell, though, the PROPFIND is only used for directories WITHOUT a "." in their name.
From the DavURLLister class in method listMembers(URL,URLFilter,boolean):
if (scanNonDottedSubDirs && getFilePartFromUrl (httpURL.toURL ()).indexOf (".") == -1)
{
URL subUrl = new URL (url) ;
urls.addAll (listMembers (subUrl, filter, scanNonDottedSubDirs));
}
else
{
urls.add (new URL (url));
}
Is their a reason the "exploded" war, ear, and jar directories can't be copied in this manner as well? Sorry if this is a stupid question.
