Subversion support
First of all, install subversion package with ; sudo apt-get install subversion
Subclipse (TOFIX)
Subclipse is an Subversion client, working like the integrated CVS client. See the [WWW] official sublipse home page for up to date informations.
*
In Eclipse, go into the menus : Help -> Software Updates -> Find and Install...
*
Search for new features to install
*
Add a new Remote Site with URL: http://subclipse.tigris.org/update
*
Next, next, next
*
Restart Eclipse
Now Subclipse needs a subversion java binding, named javahl, that is not installed with the subversion package.
libsvn-javahl for Ubuntu
I followed the instructions on this site to compile my own libsvn-javahl (which is available at [WWW] http://schuerrer.org/uploads/libsvn-jav ... 3_i386.deb) and afterwards only had to make a symbolic link from /usr/lib/libsvnjavahl-1.so to /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-sun/jre/lib/i386/client/libsvnjavahl-1.so. Then I replaced /opt/eclipse/plugins/org.tigris.subversion.subclipse.core_0.9.31/svnjavahl.jar with /usr/share/java/svn-javahl.jar and I'm still getting a JFace error. Maybe Subclipse 0.9.31 doesn't work witch Eclipse 3.1M7?
Subversion and Javahl
Javahl is the subversion <-> java library.
This installation method doesn't work, but here is my output. I hope somebody will be able to complete it and make it work.
I tried to follow the first part of this [WWW] Howto install SvnUp, but javac doesn't find the sources. I have Java 1.5 installed. Anyone ?
*
Go in your build directory, I use ~/builds
*
download subversion sources : apt-get source subversion
*
extract the sources : tar xzf subversion_1.0.9.orig.tar.gz
*
go in the folder and extract again : tar zxvf subversion_1.0.9.tar.gz
*
go in the folder and run : ./autogen.sh
*
run : ./configure --prefix=/usr
*
run : make
*
go in subfolder : subversion/bindings/java/javahl
*
run again : ./autogen.sh
*
run (not sure if it's right) : ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-jdk=/usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-sun
*
run : make
This is where it doesn't work, here is the output :

How I did it
Okay, this is NOT Ubuntu Linux (I'm using debian unstable) so forgive me if this doesn't work for you. Here are the steps I used:
*
Go into your build directory.
*
apt-get build-dep subversion get the packages you need to build subversion
*
apt-get source subversion get the sources
*
cd subversion-1.0.9/ cd into the directory (apt-get should have created this for you)
*
dpkg-buildpackage build the package... this takes a LONG TIME, since they have so many tests to verify the build worked correctly
*
cd build-tree/subversion-1.0.9/subversion/bindings/java/javahl This is where the javahl bindings are
*
./autogen.sh I used automake-1.8! apt-get that if you want your build to be as close to mine as possible!
*
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/svnjavahl --with-jdk=/usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-sun You can obviously specify your own prefix and jdk. I specified that one because I don't like locally-installed libraries intermingling with the debian-installed libraries.
*
make Build it.
*
make install Install it.
(Note that I installed it to a non-standard location. If you want to use the library from that location, you need to add /usr/local/svnjavahl/lib to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.)
I can confirm that this version works by running a small test program. I can NOT, however, get it to work in eclipse. When I try, I get this error (once for each project that uses subversion):
Unhandled event loop exception
Reason:
ctNative
So, for now I'm just leaving the Subclipse plugin to use the command line. It's slow, but at least it actually does something.
If I understand well, the problem you've got is because Subclipse is built against some particular version of javahl and subversion (see [WWW] http://subclipse.tigris.org/) Current version should work better with subversion 1.1+ Thanks a lot for your help, I hope we'll soon have something working well.
Hmm, I managed to build a subversion 1.1.1 w/ javahl library (using the packages out of debian 'experimental') but I still got the same problem. Sad. Thanks for the tip on that, though, but it seems like I'm having bigger problems.

Big thanx for your article... I need javahl to eclipse plugin... How I do this: We nead new version of subversion (1.1.1 from experimental source) edit subversion-1.1.1/debian/rules line 39 add "--enable-javahl" (to add configure option to confflags, dont forget "\" at the end of prev. line) compile all using dpkg-buildpackage after it cd subversion-1.1.1/build-tree/subversion-1.1.1 make javahl I do this without problems... in subversion-1.1.1/subversion/bindings/java/javahl/native/.lib we have javahl libs

I've had success with the Pure Java Subversion Client - [WWW] http://tmate.org/svn/
Some small glitches, to import a project through the svn view do: - Right-click, import it. - It will (may?) fail. Go back to svn view, find the rep that was now opened for that project, and reenter login information. - It will now succed, but a manual refresh of the project might be necesarry for any files to appear. Then reopen the project to hide the .svn-folders...
working subversion with javahl
From MaciejFreudenheim Sun Mar 13 02:03:35 +0000 2005 From: Maciej Freudenheim Date: Sun, 13 Mar 2005 02:03:35 +0000 Subject: Everything works (using native javahl)! Message-ID: <20050313020335+0000@[WWW] https://www.ubuntulinux.org>
OK, everything works now perfectly, here is what I did:
1. apt-get source subversion
2. cd subversion-1.1.1
3. edit debian/rules (f.e.: gedit debian/rules )
AND change:
ENABLE_JAVAHL=no
to:
ENABLE_JAVAHL=yes
at the beginning of the file.
ALSO search string "with-jdk" which is somewhere below, and make sure it points to your JDK. In my situation, it is:
confflags += --enable-javahl --without-jikes --with-jdk=/usr/lib/sun-j2sdk1.5.0
4. sudo dpkg-buildpackage
If it stops complaining about missing dependencies just install them with sudo apt-get install and relaunch dpkg-buildpackage
It takes long time to finish.5. cd debian/libsvn-javahl/usr/
6. sudo cp -a * /usr I know, it's ugly way, but i haven't time to study how to build proper deb package
7. sudo ldconfig
8. launch eclipse with: $PATH_TO_YOUR_ECLIPSE_DIRECTORY/eclipse -vmargs -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib
It's important to set that java.library.path property to /usr/lib, without it Eclipse wouldn't find libsvnjavahl*.so we just installed into /usr/lib
9. install subversion plugin in Eclipse normally, like described in the beginning of that Wiki page
10. restart eclipse: everything should work, you should be able to chose javahl in preferences->team->svn

Thanks Maciej for the nice article!
I'm following the steps for compiling Subversion with Javahl support but got stuck at step #4 which is building the Debian package using dpkg-buildpackage command. I encountered an error while building the package using dpkg-buildpackage command:
checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... no
checking whether g++ accepts -g... no
checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... /lib/cpp
configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
See `config.log' for more details.
make: *** [debian/stamp-configure] Error 1
To solve the error C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check while compiling Subversion, you need to download GCC, CPP and G++ using apt-get:
sudo apt-get install gcc cpp g++

Instead of using javahl It is possible to install JavaSVN from [WWW] http://tmate.org/svn/. (JavaSVN is a pure java Subversion (SVN) client library). On my computer I have installed:
*
Unbuntu 5.04
*
JDK 1.5.0_3
*
Eclipse 3.0.2
*
subversion package
*
subclipse plugin
*
JavaSVN plugin
and Subversion works fine for me.
