[PATCH] Revised patch: first step in issue 897

From: Erik Huelsmann <e.huelsmann_at_gmx.net>
Date: 2003-11-01 18:52:17 CET

Hi,

Because of the comments of Brane and Files, I compiled and tested a new
revision of the patch I submitted last week. The patch addresses two point in the
issue (at first it addressed only 1):

1) make svn_handle_error not recursive;
2) make sure NULL arguments are accepted by svn_create_error and document
this.

The patch can be found below. The second point makes it possible to generate
errors without specific error messages; something we may want to do in the
future. svn_handle_error was already prepared for such cases.

bye,

Erik.

PS: If the patch is wrapped by my mailer, a copy of the patch can be
obtained at http://encorps.dnsalias.com/patches/897-libsvn_subr-error-cleanup.patch
until I find a good domain to host at.

Log message
[[[
Cleanup step to start issue 897 (error messages could be better)
Patch based on ideas brought up by Files (files@poetryunlimited.com)
and Brane (brane@xbc.nu) adding my own tweaks.

* subversion/include/svn_error.h
  Document that the message argument to svn_create_error should
  be more specific than the general error associated with the
  error code. Otherwise the argument should be NULL.

* subversion/libsvn_subr/error.c
  (svn_create_error): don't apr_pstrdup NULL message
  (handle_error): don't recurse through error structures, instead
     print only the current err; rename to print_error
  (svn_handle_error): loop over error structures, flushing after
     last call to print_error (instead of each structure)

]]]
