How to Remove svn:needs-lock property in subversion
mjbuowJul 4 2011 — edited Aug 5 2011Hi All:
I am having problems with subversion and JDeveloper. We were using TortoiseSVN in 10g, and I am trying to exclusively use JDeveloper svn in 11g (11.1.1.4). We have a common business components .jar file that defines all our entities and allows everyone to use these entities already defined.. After losing a bunch of entities through a mistaken delete, we put the svn:needs-lock property on all the entity definitions of this .jar file. The problem appears to be that JDeveloper svn does not lock the assoc.xml file even when I lock the upper levels, which prevents me from changing names and organizing by function our associations. This leads to question #1, is this a known issue? The assoc.xml file is not visable through JDeveloper 11.1.1.4, so I cannot manually lock it.
So I am wanting to remove the property svn:needs-lock from the entities so that I can use JDeveloper svn since we have discovered that there is a problem using JDeveloper svn with TortoiseSVN. Files seem to become corrupt. This leads to question#2, Does anyone know how to remove the svn:needs-lock property using JDeveloper snv?
When I display the properties, there is no remove functionality, just "delete". When I click on delete, I am asked if I want to delete the ENTITY and all its files. That is not what I want to do. I know how to delete svn:needs-lock in TortoiseSVN, but hoped to do it in JDeveloper. Is there a way, or is this functionality missing from JDeveloper SVN?
