svn_client_infox

Hi,

I recently upgraded from SVN 1.7.10 to 1.8.8. In the API I was using the "svn_client_info2" function to obtain the lock state of files in the "svn_info_t" struct. I see that in 1.8.8 this function is deprecated, but it calls "svn_client_info3" and still works. The issue I am bumping into is that the documentation states that the "lock" member of "svn_info_t" is "An exclusive lock, if present.". In version 1.7.10 I could rely on this value being NULL if there was no lock on the file, or valid if there was a lock. With version 1.8.8 I am now seeing the lock member being valid, but the contents are all left NULL (e.g svn_client_info3->lock != NULL but svn_client_info3->lock->owner == NULL). This behavior seems to happen if I query the server for the lock status. If I query the complete path to a working copy, the info function behaves as expected with the "lock" member being NULL.

I looked through the release notes and error reports but didn't see this. I also tried to locate the change in code that may have caused this but I wasn't able to fund it.

Any help would be appreciated. For a temporary workaround I changed my code to check that lock and lock->owner are defined.

Thanks!
Chris
