Interface ISVNEditor

All Superinterfaces:
  ISVNDeltaConsumer

All Known Implementing Classes:
  SVNReplicationEditor

public interface ISVNEditor
extends ISVNDeltaConsumer

The ISVNEditor interface is used by SVNRepository to update versioned files/dirs, check out files/dirs from a repository, commit changes to a repository, take status of files/dirs, get differences between files.

When used for updating (checking out, getting differences or status), an implementor should provide its own appropriate implementation of the ISVNEditor interface along with a reporter baton (ISVNReposrterBaton) to a corresponding method of an SVNRepository driver. Reporter baton will be used to describe the state of local dirs/files - their current revisions, whether a file/dir is deleted or switched. An editor is invoked after the reporter baton finishes its work. It is used to "edit" the state of files/dirs, where "edit" may mean anything: applying changes in updating, switching, checking out (what really changes the state), or handling changes in getting status or differences (what is only used to inform about, show, separately store changes, and so on). The concrete behaviour of the editor is implemented by the provider of that editor.

The other kind of using ISVNEditor is committing changes to a repository. Here an editor is given to a caller, and the caller himself describes the changes of local files/dirs. All that collected info is then committed in a single transaction when a caller invokes the `closeEdit()` method of the editor.

Method Detail

### targetRevision

    public void targetRevision(long revision)
                        throws SVNException

  Sets the target revision the operation is running for. For example, the target revision to which an update is running.

  Parameters:
    `revision` - a revision number
  Throws:
    `SVNException`

### openRoot

    public void openRoot(long revision)
                  throws SVNException

  Opens the root directory on which the operation was invoked. All property changes as well as entries adding/deletion will be applied to this root directory. When coming back up to this root (after traversing the entire tree) you should close the root by calling `closeDir()`.

  Parameters:
    `revision` - the revision number of the root directory
  Throws:
    `SVNException`

### deleteEntry

    public void deleteEntry(String path,
                            long revision)
                     throws SVNException

  Deletes an entry.

  In a commit - deletes an entry from a repository. In an update - deletes an entry locally (since it has been deleted in the repository). In a status - informs that an entry has been deleted.

  Parameters:
    `path` - an entry path relative to the root directory opened by `openRoot()`
    `revision` - the revision number of `path`
  Throws:
    `SVNException`

### absentDir

    public void absentDir(String path)
                   throws SVNException

  Indicates that a path is present as a subdirectory in the edit source, but can not be conveyed to the edit consumer (perhaps because of authorization restrictions).

  Parameters:
    `path` - a dir path relative to the root directory opened by `openRoot()`
  Throws:
    `SVNException`

### absentFile

    public void absentFile(String path)
                    throws SVNException

  Indicates that a path is present as a file in the edit source, but can not be conveyed to the edit consumer (perhaps because of authorization restrictions).

  Parameters:
    `path` - a file path relative to the root directory opened by `openRoot()`
  Throws:
    `SVNException`

### addDir

    public void addDir(String path,
                       String copyFromPath,
                       long copyFromRevision)
                throws SVNException

  Adds a directory.

  In a commit - adds a new directory to a repository. In an update - locally adds a directory that was added in the repository. In a status - informs about a new directory scheduled for addition.

  If `copyFromPath` is not null then it says that `path` is copied from `copyFromPath` located in `copyFromRevision`.

  Parameters:
    `path` - a directory path relative to the root directory opened by `openRoot()`
    `copyFromPath` - an ancestor of the added directory
    `copyFromRevision` - the revision of the ancestor
  Throws:
    `SVNException`

### openDir

    public void openDir(String path,
                        long revision)
                 throws SVNException

  Opens a directory. All property changes as well as entries adding/deletion can be applied to this directory.

  Parameters:
    `path` - a directory path relative to the root directory opened by `openRoot()`
    `revision` - the revision of the directory
  Throws:
    `SVNException`

### changeDirProperty

    public void changeDirProperty(String name,
                                  String value)
