Toby,
Thanks. I've had a read through that, and I'm a lot closer, but
still stumped. There's a function referenced in svnlook/main.c called
svn_fs_open_txn, which looks like it's what I'm looking for. This appears
to correspond to the perl binding SVN::Fs::open_txn. But there's no
documentation that I can find for what this function's expecting for
arguments. From svn_fs.h, it looks like it's expecting a pointer for its
first variable (which it says it will set to the txn), a filesystem-type
variable for the second (which I'm assuming is the return result from
SVN::Repos::open('/path/to/repository') ), and the name of the txn for the
third.
The problem now is, I can't for the life of me get anything other than a
segmentation fault (if I pass a variable as the first arg) or an argument
type error (if I pass a pointer to a variable, or try to fill the variable
before passing) when invoking this in perl.
Do you (or anyone else reading) happen to know where I can find some
documentation on the arguments for this function, or for any of the
functions in SVN::Fs? "man SVN::Fs" gives me a blank man page,
unfortunately. I know that the perl SVN::Client module changed the
interface a bit from what's listed in the .h for the client...did SVN::Fs do
the same thing?
Thanks for the help.
