Subversion and VS7

Hi there,
    I'm a subversion freshmen so just say covered if I repeat previous
issues (searched the dev list archives first though)..


1. I have compiled a release build of SVN under VisualStudio7. I am working
with committed-rev="1621" of SVN and Apache 2.0.35. When I copy the
mod_dav_svn.so file output file into the Apache2/modules directory and start
apache it reports..

Cannot load D:/Apps/Apache2/modules/mod_dav_svn.so into server: The
specified module could not be found.

Could someone possibly email (damonNOSPAM@cybermagic.co.nz) me a compiled
version of this file so I can test whether its my apache config or the
compilation causing problems?

2. Observation: Has anyone noticed that .svn is an illegal folder name in
windows? Try creating a folder called .blarg using explorer. The result is
that VS7 can connect to, but cannot refresh a website in 'fileshare' mode
(havent tried it in frontpage mode) if that website has been imported into
Subversion. In fact VS7 'refresh' errors out if you create a folder called
.blarg in a dos prompt anywhere inside an IIS website. Obviously this is a
windows issue but I thought I'd mention it here.

Thats all for now folks
Damon.

Ah.

You know what? I don't care the tiniest little bit about that. Just 
watch me ignore it.

(I've had it up to here with this papa-knows-best attitude you get from 
MS programs).

That can happen when you configure IIS to publish a working copy.

I've attached one, but you might have to check out a newer version of 
Subversion (and possibly httpd-2.0, apr and apr-util), because this was 
build with the latest sources.

It is not an illegal folder name. Yes, it's true that Explorer doesn't 
let you create them, but you shouldn't believe everything Explorer tells 
you.

How would you get .svn directories on a web site through Subversion? 
Those only exist in local working copies, not in the repository.
