Developers are currently unable to check out the org.eclipse.jpa R3_0_maintenance branch code from CVS. The Refresh Branches... operation is failing with the following exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Revision malformed: branchRevision at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.client.listeners.LogListener.getBranchRevision(LogListener.java:262) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.client.listeners.LogListener.messageLine(LogListener.java:199) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.client.Request.executeRequest(Request.java:207) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.client.Command.doExecute(Command.java:413) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.client.Command$1.run(Command.java:326) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.resources.EclipseSynchronizer.run(EclipseSynchronizer.java:1474) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.resources.EclipseResource$2.run(EclipseResource.java:262) at org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.Workspace.run(Workspace.java:2344) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.resources.EclipseResource.run(EclipseResource.java:259) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.client.Command.execute(Command.java:338) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.core.client.Command.execute(Command.java:804) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.operations.RemoteLogOperation.execute(RemoteLogOperation.java:272) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.operations.RepositoryLocationOperation.execute(RepositoryLocationOperation.java:46) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.operations.CVSOperation.run(CVSOperation.java:79) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.repo.RepositoryRoot.fetchTagsUsingLog(RepositoryRoot.java:370) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.repo.RepositoryRoot.refreshDefinedTags(RepositoryRoot.java:346) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.repo.RepositoryManager.refreshDefinedTags(RepositoryManager.java:249) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.repo.RefreshRemoteProjectWizard.internalRefresh(RefreshRemoteProjectWizard.java:143) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.repo.RefreshRemoteProjectWizard.access$0(RefreshRemoteProjectWizard.java:136) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.repo.RefreshRemoteProjectWizard$3.run(RefreshRemoteProjectWizard.java:118) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.repo.RepositoryManager.run(RepositoryManager.java:717) at org.eclipse.team.internal.ccvs.ui.repo.RefreshRemoteProjectWizard$2.run(RefreshRemoteProjectWizard.java:111) at org.eclipse.jface.operation.ModalContext$ModalContextThread.run(ModalContext.java:121)
It appears this is caused by a regression in the platform CVS code. The changes that have broken our refresh were introduced in the patch for bug 76386. The file that is causing the problem can be found here: dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/webtools/org.eclipse.jpa/components/jpa/plugins/org.eclipse.jpt.core/src/org/eclipse/jpt/core/internal/resource/orm/translators/EmbeddableAttributesTranslator.java It is possible that this file is corrupted, and the new code is less tolerant of this, or the file may be perfectly valid in its nearly empty state. I will see if removing this file alleviates the problem as a potential workaround.
weird
It appears that above mentioned file is the only problematic one in our repository. Once moved out of the Attic the refresh command succeeds as expected. As this file is very old and appears to be empty anyway I am just going to leave it out of the repo, at least until the underlying issue is resolved. So for now Refresh Branches should again succeed.
Created attachment 198822 [details] Problematic file
Opened bug 350734 against platform.
I assume there's nothing left for us in WTP to do. Thanks for reporting to platform cvs for their benefit. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 350734 ***
