Hi @ all,

I'm using the Subversive-plugIn for Eclipse to check in/out code to and from my subversion-repository.

Beside the subversive-history I have got an own historyfile on a server (System i) which I have to edit everytime I commit a java-source. To improve the usability of the plugIn I've started to implemet a data-interchange into that plugIn, using the "commit" exit point.

Therefore I had to extend some classes and manipulate them. I don't like that solution because it is very rude. And finally I stuck at the point where I can retrieve information about comitted resources.

So here are my questions:
- I use the extension-point "commit". How can I write my own (initial) text into the comment-text-box?
- After hitting the OK-button to commit my sources to the repository I need to know which java-files were commited and wheather they were added/deleted/changed/... The version of the source is important too. How can I get this information?

The methods where I want to perform some "actions" are the implemented methods getCommitDialog and performAfterCommitTasks of the interface ICommitActionFactory (inside an own new class).

I've found out that the commit-panel (the text is transfered as parameter into the commit-panels constructor) is already created when the exit is called. And therefore it's to late to write an individual text into the comment-text-box.

Are there some other exits which I can use to continue my implementation?

Thank you!

Hi,

This is one of the extension points that were initially developed for the specific project and later were shared "as is". So, there is some room for improvement and we will appreciate your suggestions on this topic.

Currently this extension point allows you to:
1) customize commit message after "Ok" button is pressed
2) customize Commit operation (i.e. add some depended actions). Those actions could fetch committed revisions information from the IRevisionProvider interface (but still there is no information about additions, deletions etc.)

Hi,

first of all, thank's for your fast reply.

When you open the commit-dialog there is shown a table with all modified sources you want to commit.
This table contains a column named "Content". How do you fill the cells of this column? How can I get that information?

Would it be possible to enhance some of the subversive-classes, so you could put it into subversive default inplementation in the future?

Both columns ('Content' and 'Properties') shows change type for the resource content or its properties appropriately.
This information is provided to the resources table through the ITableLabelProvider interface. Concrete status values are obtained through Subversive API:
ILocalResource local = SVNRemoteStorage.instance().asLocalResource(resource);
contentStatus = local.getTextStatus();
propertyStatus = local.getPropStatus();

Regarding changes in Subversive code - everything is possible. Smile
But important matter is what are those changes you want to see? If those will be helpful for the Subversive project and people who uses this plug-in - why not? Smile

Yeehaw, that works! Wink

Ok, now all changes are made and I got all information I need for my little extra action.

I've changed these classes/files:
- ICommitActionFactory (new methods)
- CommitAction (calling a new exit from here)
- DefaultCommitActionFactory (implements new methods from ICommitActionFactory)
- CommitOperation (the 2nd new exit is called from here)
- MANIFEST.MF of the svn-core jar (needs two additional imports)

So, how do you want to check the code? May I send you a zipped file with all changes? Via this forum or mail?

After a few tests I had to change three more classes:
- ShareProjectWizard
- OverrideAndCommitModelActionHelper
- CommitActionHelper

All these classes got similar changes to the class CommitAction.
They needed one of the new exits...

Hi it's me again,

so now all changes were made and the plugIn works fine.

What's about the implementation into default? Do you want to take a look into the sources? What are the next steps?

Hi,

In that case we need to review the code and discuss changes with you if it is required.
So, you can create a *.patch file which contains all the changes you have made and send it to us.

P.S.
You can send patch directly to my mailbox: alexander<dot>gurov<at>polarion<dot>com.

Hello Alexander,

First, thank you for your answers.

You said "customize Commit operation (i.e. add some depended actions).".
I'm trying to find the new revision number. I'm in the postcomit method. Is it possible ?

Thank you and excuse me for the bad english...

Hello !

There is the ICommitActionFactory interface which provides the following method:

/**
* The method allows customizing of the Commit Operation
* @param operation prepared Commit operation
* @param revisionProvider committed revision provider
* @param dependsOn dependencies which can prevent commit operation execution in case of failure
* @param part workbench part which will be used to interact with user
*/
public void performAfterCommitTasks(CompositeOperation operation, IRevisionProvider revisionProvider,
IActionOperation[] dependsOn, IWorkbenchPart part);

So, in general case you should do the following:
1) implement your own operation and add it into the common execution context (since commit itself is asynchronous)
2) in the run method of the implemented operation you should ask IRevisionProvider for committed revisions.
3) if you need to proceed only if commit is succeeded, then please use the dependsOn parameter while adding your own operation in order to prevent its execution if commit wasn't performed either.

There is a sample method from tests you may use as a reference:

public void performAfterCommitTasks(CompositeOperation operation, final IRevisionProvider revisionProvider, IActionOperation[] dependsOn, IWorkbenchPart part) {
// very simple way to get after-commit revisions, if it's not enough then intercepting calls will do (see above)
operation.add(new AbstractActionOperation("SomeOp" /*the key for NLS message from the second parameter*/, SVNMessages.class /* I don't like this parameter very much, so I'll think of what to do with it later on*/) {
protected void runImpl(IProgressMonitor monitor) throws Exception {
// process post commit revisions here....
revisionProvider.getRevisions();
}
}, dependsOn);
}

Please feel free to ask if there is still questions you want to clarify.

P.S.

I have a complete test project, so I'll just share it here (that is where the method implementation sample comes from).

Best regards,
Alexander Gurov,
Subversive Team.

Dear Alexander Gurov,

I read source from your complete test project but still not clear all about process flow of this project. I have a small requirement such as below:
1/ User will commit source.
2/ Plugin will check in time that user can commit or not. It depends on system time, if not right time as expectation then will warning to user and stop commit. Otherwise do commit normally.
So after read your project source code i still could not get the logic. Any advise for me in this case, the best is explain for me the logic so I can archive my goal. An example is perfect if you can.

Thanks and best regards,
Lars.

Since the way to use commit integration API is causing questions, I don't think it is proper to hide the archived sample somewhere in forums. Smile
So, there is the reference to the documentation page. At the end of the page you can see the reference to the actual sample. It implements the task you described the way I understood it.
The sample will always conform the latest plug-in version and it could be improved later if there are more questions on API usage.
