Downloading files from SVN

[XMaNIaC]

Hi all,

I've looked at the API but I can't seem to find how to do a "svn cat" operation with SVNKit. That's my preferred way to download text files but I also need to obtain binary files and store them in a byte[]. I expected to use doExport but it requires a directory so it's a dead end for me as well. What's the correct way to load a variable with the contents of a file stored in a remote repository using SVNKit then?

Regards

Hello,

You may use either SVNWCClient.doGetFileContents(SVNURL, ...) or
SVNRepository.getFile(...) methods. To get file content into byte[] use
ByteArrayOutputStream in both methods.

Thank you, it was very easy once I knew what to use. May I advice to include the 'svn cat' in the API doc of SVNWCClient? At least it gives some orientation to the end user.

Regards
