> The test cases for the Perl API SVN::Ra at
>   bindings/swig/perl/native/t/6ra.t
> currently (as of 1.6.12) lack tests for functions needed to commit a change to
> the repository via the remote-access API layer. For starters, there are no tests
> for get_commit_editor, get_commit_editor2, get_commit_editor3. (The SVN::Ra man
> page even says that the author did not succeed in testing get_commit_editor,
> get_commit_editor2; get_commit_editor3 is not even listed.)
> When I try to use e.g. get_commit_editor2 as suggested in the SVN::Ra
> man page, I just get an error message like
>   TypeError in method 'svn_ra_get_commit_editor2', argument 5 of type
> 'svn_commit_callback2_t'
> A short example Perl script that reproduces this is attached below.
> Motivation: The remote-access layer API is very useful for applications (such as
> Web CGI editors) that want to commit changes without the overhead and disk-state
> involved with having to checkout a working directory first. Perl remains a
> popular CGI scripting language, which makes a well-tested, production-quality
> Perl SWIG binding for svn_ra.h highly desirable.

> How to reproduce TypeError:
> #!/usr/bin/perl
> use SVN::Core;
> use SVN::Ra;
> use SVN::Delta;
> my $ra = SVN::Ra->new('http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/');
> my $path = 'trunk/BUGS';
> open($fh, '>', \$text) || die;
> my ($revnum, $props) = $ra->get_file($path, $SVN::Core::INVALID_REVNUM, $fh);
> close $fh || die;
> print "Revision: $revnum\n\n$text\n";
> my $logmsg = "test commit via the SVN:Ra Perl API";
> sub commit_callback {
>     my ($arg) = @_;
>     use Data::Dumper;
>     print STDERR "commit_callback(".Dumper($arg).")\n";
> }
> my $editor = SVN::Delta::Editor->new(
>     $ra->get_commit_editor2($logmsg, \&commit_callback, undef, {}, 0));
> {noformat}
