Hi, I've install HsSVN (version 0.3.3) using ghc-6.8.3 and Cabal-1.4.0.1, but it was a real pain (under i686 Linux 2.6.22.18-0.2-default #1 SMP) 1. I had to install subversion-devel-1.4.4-30 (of course) 2. configure went through after setting: export CPATH=/usr/include/apr-1:/usr/include/subversion-1 3. building failed with: Program error: <handle>: IO.getContents: protocol error (input contains non-character data - use binary I/O for binary data) because some comments in the sources (i.e. Subversion/FileSystem.hsc) contain funny (japanese?) characters that hsc2hs does not like. (Under Solaris and Mac this was no problem, though.) I used iconv to convert the sources and finally the included HelloWorld example went through. 4. Under Solaris, only apr-1-config and apu-1-config found the proper include path (so I needed to adjust the configure.ac file) 5. The file HsSVN.buildinfo.in has no final newline, so that the last line (containing the ld-options:) is missing in HsSVN.buildinfo after configure! 6. Running the examples under Solaris failed with: -bash-3.1$ ./HelloWorld Creating a repository "repos"... The youngest revision of the repository is 0 Storing a file "/hello" in it... HelloWorld: user error (withSubversion: caught an SvnError: UnknownError 22: Can't set position pointer in file 'repos/db/revs/0': Invalid argument) Cheers Christian Shahzad wrote:
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am doctoral student and researcher in Technical University Vienna. I need to manage Subversion client and run SVN commands through Haskell6.8 , and I need to make that application for ubuntu and Windows, Can you guide me how to make any API for Haskell to use Subversion.
I was thinking to use c2hs to make an interface from C++ to haskell but I could not find that a solution. There is a Package HsSVN but is also not working.
Can you please guide me to the solution..
Best Regards
