RE: [Subclipse-users] svn:ignore problem

Hi,

I have had the same problem when I checked out the whole workspace using an
external tool (tortoise). In this workspace, which was then under SVN
control itself (which it is not by default if you just check out projects
using subclipse, because only the projects are under source code control
then).
It seems to detect that the parent dir (your workspace) has a subversion
link and this is confusing to subclipse.
Delete the .svn information in your workspace dir (not the projects) and the
message should not occur.
Or rebuild the workspace in a new location (not under SVN control) by
checking out the projects in eclipse.
Maybe someone could try to reproduce this and find the bug in subclipse
which leads to this problem. Sorry, I have no time for this. I hope my
description gives enough hints for the detection of the problem.

Marcus

Subject: [Subclipse-users] svn:ignore problem

Hi,

I'm getting this error:

    An error was encountered retrieving the Eclipse resource for:
'C:\SWO\build'.
    The typical cause of this problem is that the case of the drive letter
and/or path of this file in Eclipse,
    does not match the operating system. The value shown previously is the
OS path. The project may need to
    reloaded into Eclipse with the correct path to resolve the problem.
This problem may effect several projects
    but we try to send this message only once per session. This may only
effect the JavaHL SVN adapter.
    See: http://subclipse.tigris.org/faq.html#path-case for background
information./

/I have read the faq and searched the mailing list, the answers there don't
seem relevant because the C:\SWO\build is a derived directory created from
an external ant build. The 'build' directory is at the same level as my
Eclipse Workspace Project directories but does not itself appear in my
workspace (it's not part of a project). There is no upper/lower case issue
because nothing in the workspace ever references this directory. It's just a
plain file on the file system which eclipse normally ignores.

My svn:ignore property set on C:\SWO is

svn:ignore *.class -r platform .metadata build dist

and the build directory does not exist in the repository. TortoiseSVN
ignores it if I use that outside of Eclipse.

Is subclipse trying to fetch C:\SWO\build from the repository? Why does it
do that and how can I stop it trying to do this? I'm guessing it's not
reading my svn:ignore propertle?

I have added it to the ignore patterns via the CVS plugin configuration as
'build' and tried changing to the JavaSVN client too.

Also subclipse was working OK for a while and it didn't complain about this
'build' directory and eclipse was responsive but now that this problem shows
in the console eclipse is non-responsive when I right-click on a project.

thanks,
Gary
