RE: [Subclipse-users] Missing

Hello Erik,

First of all: Checkout the documentation ;-)

Case 1:
  <svn>
     ...
  </svn>

Case 2:
  <svn javahl="false">
  </svn>

As mentioned within the documentation the attributes 'javahl' and 'svnkit' would look like this:

Case 1: javahl=true, svnkit=false
Case 2: javahl=false, svnkit=false

This means Case 1 would try to make use of the JavaHL binding, so that's the reason for your error message regarding the missing binding (chapter 'Introduction' !).
In Case 2 you disabled both: javahl and svnkit which means that it used the commandline adapter (the svn executables which were obviously on the path on your machine).

A sidenote from myself: I don't like this way of specifying the backend client as it's unintuitive and misleading. I left it in version 1.3.1 because the previous version was very old and I considered this a maintenance release (that's the reason for the deprecation messages). In future there will be only one attribute 'backend' with the values 'svnkit', 'javahl' and 'commandline'.

Back to your problem: Apart from your misunderstanding related to the invocation I'm not sure why you think 'wcversion' isn't working correctly.
Therefore I will give you a short description how I've verified it's functionality:

* I've got a repository A with the maximum revision 481
* I've got a repository B with the maximum revision 400
* I've setup an 'svn:external' within a workingcopy of B to include 'A' (obviously I've also updated this workingcopy to include the content of A)
* Calling 'wcversion' on the workingcopy delivers the revision number 400 which is exactly the information that I would expect.

If you're scenario is similar and it still doesn't seem to work, it would be nice if you could create a testcase in order to analyse the potential issue.

Best regards

Daniel Kasmeroglu
