[PATCH] Re: preparing a path or url for an svn api call....

From: Martin Hauner <martin.hauner_at_gmx.net>
Date: 2006-11-20 22:07:54 CET

Hi,

here is a small patch for a new function svn_path_from_user_input that
helps any svn client to pass a well formed and escaped path/url to the
api.

There is a small change in the handling of the administrative dir. In
the old code the administrative dir was skipped. In the new code it
reports an error.
I don't think it is worth to check the error of the new function to
mimic the old behavior.

[[[
Moved path and url preparation code from svn_opt_args_to_target_array2
to its own function so it is available to any subversion api client.

* subversion/include/svn_error_codes.h
   (SVN_ERR_WC_BAD_PATH_ADM_DIR): new error.

* subversion/include/svn_path.h
   subversion/libsvn_subr/path.c
   (svn_path_from_user_input): new function, extracted from
   svn_opt_args_to_target_array2.

* subversion/libsvn_subr/opt.c
   (svn_opt_args_to_target_array2): use the new function.
