Typedef Documentation

typedef svn_error_t*(* svn_fs_get_locks_callback_t)(void *baton, svn_lock_t *lock, apr_pool_t *pool)

The type of a lock discovery callback function.

baton is the value specified in the call to svn_fs_get_locks(); the filesystem passes it through to the callback. lock is a lock structure. pool is a temporary subpool for use by the callback implementation -- it is cleared after invocation of the callback.

Definition at line 2073 of file svn_fs.h.


Function Documentation

svn_error_t* svn_fs_generate_lock_token ( const char **  token,
svn_fs_t fs,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Generate a unique lock-token using fs.

Return in *token, allocated in pool.

This can be used in to populate lock->token before calling svn_fs_attach_lock().

svn_error_t* svn_fs_get_lock ( svn_lock_t **  lock,
svn_fs_t fs,
const char *  path,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

If path is locked in fs, set *lock to an svn_lock_t which represents the lock, allocated in pool.

If path is not locked, set *lock to NULL.

svn_error_t* svn_fs_get_locks ( svn_fs_t fs,
const char *  path,
svn_fs_get_locks_callback_t  get_locks_func,
void *  get_locks_baton,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Report locks on or below path in fs using the get_locks_func / get_locks_baton.

Use pool for necessary allocations.

If the get_locks_func callback implementation returns an error, lock iteration will terminate and that error will be returned by this function.

svn_error_t* svn_fs_lock ( svn_lock_t **  lock,
svn_fs_t fs,
const char *  path,
const char *  token,
const char *  comment,
svn_boolean_t  is_dav_comment,
apr_time_t  expiration_date,
svn_revnum_t  current_rev,
svn_boolean_t  steal_lock,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

A lock represents one user's exclusive right to modify a path in a filesystem.

In order to create or destroy a lock, a username must be associated with the filesystem's access context (see svn_fs_access_t).

When a lock is created, a 'lock-token' is returned. The lock-token is a unique URI that represents the lock (treated as an opaque string by the client), and is required to make further use of the lock (including removal of the lock.) A lock-token can also be queried to return a svn_lock_t structure that describes the details of the lock. lock-tokens must not contain any newline character, mainly due to the serialization for tokens for pre-commit hook.

Locks are not secret; anyone can view existing locks in a filesystem. Locks are not omnipotent: they can broken and stolen by people who don't "own" the lock. (Though admins can tailor a custom break/steal policy via libsvn_repos pre-lock hook script.)

Locks can be created with an optional expiration date. If a lock has an expiration date, then the act of fetching/reading it might cause it to automatically expire, returning either nothing or an expiration error (depending on the API). Lock path in fs, and set *lock to a lock representing the new lock, allocated in pool.

Warning:
You may prefer to use svn_repos_fs_lock() instead, which see.

fs must have a username associated with it (see svn_fs_access_t), else return SVN_ERR_FS_NO_USER. Set the 'owner' field in the new lock to the fs username.

comment is optional: it's either an xml-escapable UTF8 string which describes the lock, or it is NULL.

is_dav_comment describes whether the comment was created by a generic DAV client; only mod_dav_svn's autoversioning feature needs to use it. If in doubt, pass 0.

If path is already locked, then return SVN_ERR_FS_PATH_ALREADY_LOCKED, unless steal_lock is TRUE, in which case "steal" the existing lock, even if the FS access-context's username does not match the current lock's owner: delete the existing lock on path, and create a new one.

token is a lock token such as can be generated using svn_fs_generate_lock_token() (indicating that the caller wants to dictate the lock token used), or it is NULL (indicating that the caller wishes to have a new token generated by this function). If token is not NULL, and represents an existing lock, then path must match the path associated with that existing lock.

If expiration_date is zero, then create a non-expiring lock. Else, the lock will expire at expiration_date.

If current_rev is a valid revnum, then do an out-of-dateness check. If the revnum is less than the last-changed-revision of path (or if path doesn't exist in HEAD), return SVN_ERR_FS_OUT_OF_DATE.

Note:
At this time, only files can be locked.
svn_error_t* svn_fs_unlock ( svn_fs_t fs,
const char *  path,
const char *  token,
svn_boolean_t  break_lock,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Remove the lock on path represented by token in fs.

If token doesn't point to a lock, return SVN_ERR_FS_BAD_LOCK_TOKEN. If token points to an expired lock, return SVN_ERR_FS_LOCK_EXPIRED. If fs has no username associated with it, return SVN_ERR_FS_NO_USER unless break_lock is specified.

If token points to a lock, but the username of fs's access context doesn't match the lock's owner, return SVN_ERR_FS_LOCK_OWNER_MISMATCH. If break_lock is TRUE, however, don't return error; allow the lock to be "broken" in any case. In the latter case, token shall be NULL.

Use pool for temporary allocations.
