I was not aware of svn_subst_translate_cstring2(), just as I'm not
aware of -- oh, I'd say 95% of the functions that make up Subversion.
The code is still *very* new to me.
So, now I've looked it up, and followed it right down the rabbit hole.
I've read it, skimmed the things it calls and tried to reason my way
through the indirection via function pointers...
* svn_subst_translate_cstring2 37
*** svn_stream_from_stringbuf 18
***** svn_stream_create 12
***** (read_handler_stringbuf)
***** (write_handler_stringbuf)
*** svn_stream_write 6
***** -> write_handler_stringbuf 8
*** svn_subst_stream_translated 62
***** svn_stream_create 12
***** create_translation_baton 25
***** (translated_stream_read) 52
****** translate_chunk 161
******** translate_newline 32
*********** translate_write 12
***** (translated_stream_write) 11
***** (translated_stream_close) 13
----------------------------------
463
Finally, in translate_chunk I found the logic that identifies new
lines. It's rather hard to follow because of course It's doing keyword
substitution at the same time and normalizing to an arbitrary
eol-style, not just LF. Oh, and it'll optionally error out for you
when it discovers inconsistencies, but I don't need that. In the end,
I think it behaves as my function is intended to. I could use it, I
suppose. Perhaps I should. (code reuse...)
Still, it seems like overkill to get about 500 lines of svn_stream and
translation machinery involved just to achieve eol-normalization of a
string, which is already entirely in memory.
