Can svn:ignore be recursive

I am not to clear on this from the doc. If I want to ignore all *.vbw files for example in my project is it enough to put the ignore at the top level folder? Or, do I have to cascade it down to all subfolders? Same questions for folders, if I want to ignore ALL 'bin' and 'obj' folders?

You have to set the property on each folder.
