Commit Problem

Gooday,

I'm having a problem trying to get a simple example of the commit operation working using the client API.

Here is a part of the code that I'm currently debugging:

____________________________________________________________________

apr_array_header_t *targets = apr_array_make (pool, 1, sizeof (char *));

svn_client_commit_info_t *commit_info;

svn_error_t *err;

/* item is a const char* comming from my main program arguments */

(*((const char **) apr_array_push (targets))) = item;

ctx->log_msg_func = commit_log_callback;

/* log_entry is a const char* comming from my main program arguments - the log message */

ctx->log_msg_baton = (void *) log_entry;

err = svn_client_commit (&commit_info, targets, TRUE, ctx, pool);

if (err) handle_error (err);

printf ("revision %" SVN_REVNUM_T_FMT " committed at %s by %s\n", commit_info->revision, commit_info->date, commit_info->author);

_______________________________________________________

I have implemented a log_msg_func and baton to take care of the log message that goes with the commit and I basically followed the examples in the Practical Subversion book. Please note that both ctx and pool in the small piece of code above have been declared and filled in correctly. I used the minimal_client.c (http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/tools/examples) example for these and I've tested them with several other Subversion operations and they work fine.

I have also implemented a simple notification callback function that simply prints the path when it is called.

Now for the PROBLEM:

What happens with this code is that I have a small main program commiting a single file (the repository is valid) to a repository. The program executes the code above and everything goes smoothly until it hits the svn_client_commit function. At this point, the file is actually committed to the file repository, the log message is correctly committed as well, I see that the notification callback function gets called back twice (once printing the repository path and the other time the actual path that I'm sending the file from - Is this normal?) and then the program crashes with a segmentation fault. The program never gets out of the svn_client_commit function. The repository remains in a Locked stated and I have to do a svn cleanup to get rid of this. Note that I do nothing with commit_info.

Note: if I try this operation while the repository is locked or the file in the repository is out of date then I actually do get an error message back from the svn_client_commit function and I do not get a segmentation fault.

In order to verify that the file was actually committed, I did and update and on a remote PC I did a checkout and both had the newly committed file and the correct log message.

Therefore to summarize, the commit actually works but the program crashes just after. The svn_client_commit function does not return an error.

Any help concerning this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance,

Ben
