SVN Libraries for 64bit development on Windows

0 votes
413 views

I am looking to integrate SVN support into a Windows application. This application comes as both 32bit and 64bit versions and therefore I would need to have 64bit libraries. I have trouble finding the binaries for Windows 64bit development.

I would not mind compiling one myself, but it seems instructions are sparse and do not directly pertain to 64bit, perhaps because most people are just interested in the clients and 32bit is just fine there for most uses.

Thanks in advance?

I had the same requirement, and I've found a solution without having to compile SVN for 64-bit Windows. What I did was:
1. Install CollabNet Subversion Windows 64-bit command line binaries.
2. Use the Visual Studio x64 Win64 Command Prompt to generate lib files from the 64-bit CollabNet DLLs (as per http://adrianhenke.wordpress.com/2008/12/05/create-lib-file-from-dll/)
3. Link against the resulting lib files.

SVN crashed on Windows during a long operation

I received the following message when running SVN UPDATE --SET-DEPTH INFINITY on Windows (build 1.8.9 downloaded from VisualSVN site): 

THIS APPLICATION HAS HALTED DUE TO AN UNEXPECTED ERROR. 
A CRASH REPORT AND MINIDUMP FILE WERE SAVED TO DISK, YOU CAN FIND THEM HERE: 
   ....

This seems to happen only when downloading many large files (like third-party DLLs) or many, many small files (I am guessing about 3000 files). This seems to be a problem with 1.8 as 1.7 never did this (again my guess)

I have also tried the svn included with 1.8.7 version of TortoiseSVN and it pops up the "encountered an error and needs to close" message.

Any suggestion on how to solve this?

support of symlinks in SVN on Windows

Any thoughts regarding supporting symlinks in SVN on Windows? Windows has supported symlinks since Vista:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365680(v=vs.85).aspx

Supporting cross-platform symlinks where possible will ease some compatibility pain for cross-platform development.

get error on svn -u status

I just moved a subversion repository from an ubuntu linux 12.04 server running subversion 1.6.12 to an ubuntu Linux 14.04.1 server running subversion 1.8.8.

I have been able to export the code to an ubuntu 14.04.1 client running subversion 1.8.8 and when I do a
svn -u status
W155007: ‘home/xxx/src/trunk/c/eco’ is not a working copy

I get this error no matter what directory I do it in and it used to work fine before the move when we were running Ubuntu 12.04 clients with the old repository.

We are using apache2 with ssl for old and new repository.

unversioned properties on SVN and size limitations?

Is there a limitation in size on the property value that can be set? Any scalability traps to be aware of (i.e. non-linear increase in time due to increase in size of the property value)? I tried a 4Mb property, seems to work fine...

SVN: Missing update-report close tag on CheckOut

With VisualSVN server version 2.1.4 (svn server version 1.6.13) When I try to checkout our project it throws an error message "svn: E175009: Missing update-report close tag". What could be the reason for this error message?
Can something could be corrupt in our server? If so is there any tool to verify and correct our repository?
