On Friday, May 18, the normal maintenance window (17:00 Pacific time) will be extended for data center maintenance until 23:00 Pacific. No extended down-time is planned, but brief delays and interruptions are possible throughout the period.
SvnClientAdapter
SVNClientAdapter is a high-level Java API for Subversion.
It can use one of 3 low-level svn client implementations to provide access
to the Subversion API:
- JavaHL native (JNI) subversion library
(http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/subversion/bindings/java/javahl/)
- JavaSVN (pure Java) subversion API implementation (http://tmate.org/svn/)
- svn(.exe) command line client wrapper
Why should I use SvnClientAdapter instead of javahl ?
SvnClientAdapter is a higher level API (comparing to javahl ...). That's
why svnClientAdapter is easier to use in many cases.
For example, you can use ISVNClientAdapter
addToIgnoredPatterns
method to add a pattern of files to ignore to a directory.
public abstract
void
addToIgnoredPatterns(File
path, String
pattern)
throws SVNClientException;
With javahl, it would have been necessary to
get the svn:ignore property, parse it, verify that the pattern is not
already set, add the pattern to the property string and then set the
property.
Besides the simpler use, it provides unified adapter to the low-level
APIs enabling seamless interchange of the underlying library. (e.g. in case JavaHL is not
available, command line wrapper can be used without any impact to existing code)
