Compile code in SVN remote repository [message #1733962]

I am using Eclipse Juno with SVN and Maven. I have my individual workspace and able to build my project there. I have made some changes in my local and committed those changes to the Remote repository. When I view through the SVN repository exploring perspective I see that my source code is reflected in the SVN but my local Bin folder is different from the SVN Bin folder. How do I commit my Bin folder to the SVN repository or build the SVN repository ?

Why are you keeping bin in version control? Its artifacts are
reproducible (precisely by doing a build). Unless there's a very good
reason for this, it's wasteful to keep binaries under version control.
Neither svn nor git are especially good at "versioning" binaries: they
basically remain full copies, I think.

Add the following line to your .svnignore file:

bin/

Thanks for the suggestion. I will add the Bin folder to Ignore.
how do I build/compile the SVN repository code? I am compiling my local copy using the Build Project option in Eclipse IDE.

I confess I don't have enough information on your project.

I'm assuming you...

1. cloned the svn project into your filesystem
2. set up a workspace telling Eclipse where that project is (rather than
putting it in your workspace)
3. are building it in Eclipse

Are you asking about a command-line build action or one invoked from
inside Eclipse? Do you have a build script? Ant? Maven? Etc.

P.S. You might also do this to get rid of the excess baggage in svn:

$ svn rm bin

either option is fine. i have installed Maven and have the pom.xml configured. is that the build script?
I am a newbie and have set up the eclipse, svn and maven through some tutorial & help on various forums.

Maven is probably the best way to do it for many reasons.

You can, but I don't know how. I happen to be a UNIX/Linux command-line
guy and I always do it outside:

$ mvn clean compile test package install etc.

There is an Eclipse m2 forum for Maven I think. Good to ask there too.
