Dear Bill,
1) In any case the NullPointerException do not looks like something
acceptable. Could you please provide some additional information?
1) What Subversive version you use?
Eclipse 3.3.2 Build Id: M20080221-1800
Remote System Explorer Core 2.0.3.v20080225
SVN Team Provider Core 1.2.4
Subversion JavaHL win32 Binaries 1.2.4
SVN TeamProvider UI 1.2.4
Subclipse Documentation 1.2.0
2) What connector version is selected at
Window->Preferences->Team->SVN->SVN Client?
There isn't a svn client option bu I am using the SVNKit SVN interface
if thats what you meant
3) Stack trace of the NPE
Strange thing: I can't get that. When I click on details the dialog
dies. Is it saved in a log file?
4) Step-by-step guide how to reproduce the problem if it is posible
1) From within the Remote System Explorer Perspective, I navigate to my
project ont he external server
2) I right click on the root folder of the project and select create
external project
3) I switch to the JAVA Perspective
4) I right click on the project and goto Team -> share project
5) I select SVN and click NEXT
6) I then get the Null Pointer Error
After getting the error once, I cannot reproduce it without removing the
external project and recreating it. Otherwise, it just wont let me
select the Next button when selecting SVN.
2) Subversive does not handle Subversion meta-information if it is placed
inside a linked folders. So, if you need to make this working in Subversive
you have two alternatives:
1) Share root project to SVN and use svn:externals property in order
to automatically checkout external resources into the project
I'll admit, I'm not exactly sure what you mean by this. But, The only
links allowed ssh are from the local eclipse machine to remote machines
containing the repository and the working code. I'm not sure how an
external link from the svn repository to the local computer would help,
but its not allowed.
2) Import existing remote project into the Eclipse workspace. In
this case please note that the project should be available on the file
system supported by OS because Subversive uses external libraries in order
to connect with SVN and no one from these libraries have knowledge about
Eclipse virtual file systems.
This is the problem. I'd like to roll up my sleeves and fix this
problem. I didn't know where it was. Eclipse should hide any noticeable
differences between a linked folder and a real folder for the plug ins.
So I think I need to look at the eclipse core itself. Thanks for the
tip. As you can see I'm using a couple different plug ins. Its difficult
to figure out where problems actually arise from in the code.
If my reply is not very helpful please describe situation more precisely.
Best regards,

Subject: [subversive-dev] subversive with RSE problems.
Hello list,
I've run into a wall with subversive. Its either something I'm doing
incorrectly, or something that can't be done. If it can't be done, consider
this a feature request. If I just royally screwed up and it is possible, I
apologize and would appreciate being pointed in the correct direction of a
solution.
I'm trying to use subversive to connect a remote project( using rse, the
remote systems explorer plug in) to an existing subversion repository.
Normally my projects contain a single folder which is linked to a folder on
a remote machine with rse. On the remote system, the project already belongs
to a repository and all of the appropriate .svn directories are there. I've
tried several means of connecting subversive to the project without success.
I've tried putting a .svn folder directly under the project folder on the
local system, to give subversive a clue that it was linked to subversion. It
appeared to work, I can go to Team->share and it does some things that makes
me think its working. However I can't actually perform any actions with
subversion after its finished. An update will complain that the main branch
is missing ( its on the remote system). Trying to compare the files on the
remote system to the last committed versions in the repository doesn't work
(throws a Null Pointer Exception).
I tried creating my project as a remote project, but associating that with
the repository results in another Null Pointer Exception.
So, basically I'm wondering if its possible to use subversive with rse, and
if not, I think it should.
Thanks for your time,
Bill Newton
