Oxygen XML Forum

Hi everyone,
Sorry for my question, I'm very new to programming.
I would like to know if it will be possible to create a plugin to "extend" webdav in order to trigger custom actions / events before execute normal operations?
I mean (for example) could I execute custom action before deleting, coping a resource throught webdav interface in Data Source Explorer?

There are some other techniques I should use to obtain a similar results?

Sorry again, if my explanation is not good.

Thanks

Hi,

Sorry but we do not have such API.
We do have API for a plugin to provide a custom view so you could for example implement your own WebDav explorer view but that would take quite a lot of implementation effort.
Could you tell me more about your use case?

Radu

Thanks Radu,

I want to manage a repo of DITA multilingual topics. So every topics in main language have their own translated copy and I want to mantain an (possibly automatic) linkage between them through an XML database.

Probably best solution is to use a CMS between Editor and XML database?

Thanks

Hi,

Possibly you could add hooks on the server side in the HTTP server configuration and intercept calls from HTTP clients like Oxygen to delete or to create new topics.
Indeed most CMSs advertise having special support for translations.
