The eroom webserver extension provides three different clients to access the webserver and the applciaiton.They are described as below.
-1- The browser interface uses http and built with ASPs.It supports web brwser access to the eroom server for manipulation of objects within the server.
-2- The eRoom Webservice interface provides webservice access to the eroom server,allowing external applications to manipulate the eroom content and metadata.The webservice is based on SOAP over HTTP or HTTPS.It supports web service definition language (WSDL) and compatible with universal description discovery and integration (UDDI) standards.Queries to the eroom server can be issued via eXQL language to manipulate objects and retrieve data.eXQL takes help of server APIs to access server data.
-3- The third one is WebDAV (WebDAV stands for Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning is used to publish and manage files and directories on a remote web server.)interface which can be used to access the eroom server.WebDAV clients such as Windows Web folder can access eroom via a protocal called Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Standard webDAV protocol. So, a group of users can collaboratively perform different functionson the website.WebDAV connections can be made using standard tools like Dreamweaver.
More can be discussed on specific posting to WebDAV functionality.
