Support for HTTP Method "MKCALENDAR"

Hello,

I´m using Owncloud 9 and Hiawatha Server, which ist a really good combination.

But the CalDav Service of Owncloud 9 uses "MKCALENDAR" to create new calendars. Changing the method in Owncloud to POSTworks, but it breaks the ownclouds code integrity check

I implemented the MKCALENDAR method - so no code changes are neccesary in Owncloud.

The function "determine_request_method" in "session.c" follwing check can be added:

else if (strncmp(session->request, "MKCALENDAR ", 11) == 0) {
    session->request_method = POST;
}

I use POST, because it works without any problems.

If you change 'POST' to 'unsupported', does it then still work? Because that would be the prefered setting.

I have changed 'POST' to 'unsupported' and it still works.

else if (strncmp(session->request, "MKCALENDAR ", 11) == 0) {
    session->request_method = unsupported;
}

What is the difference between 'POST' and 'unsupported' and why is 'unsupported' prefered?

Via 'unsupported', Hiawatha will respond in a correct way (501 Not Implemented) when WebDAVapp is set to no.
