Hi,
I'm looking at a strange little scenario with a client trying to sync
with the CalendarServer.
It goes like this, in summary:
C: REPORT:calendar-query /calendars/users/me at domain/calendar/
----------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<C:calendar-query
xmlns:C="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav">
<D:prop xmlns:D="DAV:">
<D:getetag/>
</D:prop>
<C:filter>
<C:comp-filter name="VCALENDAR">
<C:comp-filter name="VEVENT">
<C:time-range
start="20160611T000000Z" end="20170207T000000Z"/>
</C:comp-filter>
</C:comp-filter>
</C:filter>
</C:calendar-query>
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S: 207 - Here's a bunch of hrefs of the form:
<href>/calendars/users/me%40domain/calendar/blabla.ics</href>
C: REPORT:calendar-multiget /calendars/users/me at domain/calendar/
<href>/calendars/users/me%40domain/calendar/blabla.ics</href
...
=================================================================
Now ... it's clear from https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4918#section-8.3
that the last request is illegal.
Or rather... if one parses the URL comparison rules it seems to say that
the Request-URI and the <href> should be octet-by-octet compared, so "@"
!= "%40" here.
However... (and this is the question) ... I'm a little in doubt about
how to interpret RFC4918, section 8.3 wrt. which rules the server should
obey wrt. the Request-URI when formulating the response.
Is the server allowed to respond with <href>/%40</href> when the
Request-URI was /@ ?
regards,
Peter Mogensen
