Occasionally subversion can get itself confused about what is and what is not in a working copy. This usually occurs if you have replaced the contents of a directory such as when you upgrade a component in Joomla!
You receive a message such containing this:
"working copy admin area is missing"
How to resolve this:
Step 1 -- Rename the directory that is causing the error from a shell prompt and prefix it with __
mv com_docman __com_docman
Step 2 -- Using your subversion client refresh your working copy, then "update" the directory that is causing the problem e.g. update com_docman.
Step 3 -- Now you can commit the __com_docman directory.
After you have done this follow these steps, using your subversion client:
Step 4 -- delete the com_docman directory from your working copy
Step 5 -- rename __com_docman back to com_docman
Now "commit all" and both your working copy and repository will be in sync.
Recital 10 introduced a FOREACH command, much like PHP and some other languages. This simply gives an easy way to iterate over arrays. foreach works on arrays and objects, and will issue an error when you try to use it on a variable with a different data type or an uninitialized variable. There are two syntaxes; the second is a minor but useful extension of the first:
The second form does the same thing, except that the current element's key will be assigned to the variable key on each loop. This form works only on associative arrays and objects.
FOREACH array_expression AS value
statements...
ENDFOR
FOREACH array_expression AS key => value
statements...
ENDFOR
The first form loops over the array given by array_expression. On each loop, the value of the current element is assigned to value and the internal array pointer is advanced by one (so on the next loop, you'll be looking at the next element). The second form does the same thing, except that the current element's key will be assigned to the variable key on each loop. This form works only on associative arrays and objects.
I am pleased to finally report that the Centos release of Redhats 5.3 has been built and is available for download from http://www.centos.org/
The highlights of this release can be found at the following URL: http://www.redhat.com
The main areas of interest in my opinion excluding critical secirty fixes are:
- Updated hardwaresupport support for the new Intel Core i7 (Nehalem) chips
- Beefed up virtualiseation support increasing CPU and Ram limits of Virtual machines.
- Inclusion of the fully open sourced OpenJDK. This makes Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 the first enterprise-ready solution with a fully open source Java stack when combined with JBoss Enterprise Application Platform.
For those who already have Centos 5.2 installed you can simply receive the update via Yum.
Before you do the following, check that you do not have 3rd party repo's and the Centos-testing repo enabled.
You can display the currently enabled repo's using the following command.
$ yum repolist
Then as root at the prompt type:
$ yum update
Recital 10 enhances the APPEND FROM command. The enhancement was added to the following syntax ;
APPEND FROM <table-name>Before when appending into a shared Recital table each new row was locked along with the table header, then unlocked after it was inserted. This operation has now been enhanced to lock the table once, complete inserting all the rows from the table and then unlock the table. The performance of this operation has been increased by using this method. All the database and table constraints are still enforced.
Recital 10 enhances the SQL optimizer. Now, production indexes with a FOR <conditions> will be used to optimize SQL SELECT statements. If a WHERE <condition> on a SELECT statement matches a FOR <condition> on an index tag, this index will be used to optimize the query. The WHERE <condition> must be an exact match with the FOR <condition>. For example;
USE accounts INDEX on account_no TAG outstanding FOR balance > 0 EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM accounts WHERE balance > 0 Optimized using for condition on tag 'OUTSTANDING'
lslk lists information about locks held on files with local inodes on systems running linux.
Install it with:
yum install lslk
The Komodo Editor is a free project based editor that runs on the mac, linux and windows. It color codes and handles auto completion for lots of languages (including Recital/PHP/Perl/C etc). You can download it free from here.
