For anyone else struggling to get svn to work, I found using http: protocol works but svn: doesn’t when accessing the rubyforge.org repository, thus:

Dan$ svn log -r ‘HEAD’ svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/churn-demo/inventory
svn: Connection closed unexpectedly

Dan$ svn log ~~r ‘HEAD:{2005-07-30}’ http://churn-demo.rubyforge.org/svn/inventory~~

Other people have reported the same issue for other repositories. see: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/133974

I am having trouble with svn (using CollabNet Windows client). Manually typing the exact text as shown on top of page 60 into the svn CL client gives:

c:\>svn log—revision ‘HEAD:{2005-07-30}’ svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/churn-dem
o/inventory
svn: Syntax error in revision argument ’’HEAD:{2005-07-30}’‘

Any suggestions?

Dan.

Sorry for the delayed reply – I lost your note.

Yes, you need svn on the system – but not that most of the program can be tested without svn.

for the svn_log function on Page 77, I assume we need svn on the system?

Confused.

I was only looking for more of your easy to follow and pertinent
examples, as I’m hoping to use Ruby to quickly develop a test tool
to send and receive XML ‘structured messages’over a TCP/IP stream
(not using Web Services) in order to do some load and capacity
checks of another application written in C running on OpenVMS Alpha.

I’m sorry to say I never wrote that supplement. I’m working to get a decent draft of a book on RubyCocoa done before Apple’s WWDC, so I won’t be able to do any work on an XML supplement before then (at the very earliest). What would you want out of a supplement?

Am loving this book but looking for more in processing XML .. page
154 (in my PDF version of the book, version 2007-1-25) mentions
a forthcoming supplement “Working with XML and XPath” ; does this
exist yet ? (and if so where ?)

Thanks!
