Why is it so hard to install SVN in eclipse?


I've been using eclipse for some time, and know there are two options in the market place, the SVN eclipse sponsored connector and then subversvion.tigris.org, my problem is getting connectors to actually install and work, when installing native Java I get errors, I have a hard time getting polarion connectors to work, in my current case the specific error I am getting now is that it cannot initialize apache class subversion.javahl.SVNClient and its frustrating that SVN cannot get installed out of the box with these newer versions of eclipse. Does anyone have this problem? Are other folks having issues getting polarion connectors to work? Just curious if someone has a solution. thanks


Solution

  • I found a solution, the latest release of subversion does not install from the market place, i went to the home page for the project on eclipse, downloaded the archive release for luna, installed it into the most recent version of eclipse and it worked.
