Cancel Button does not work (OS X 10.5)

Hi,

when an update or sync times out (which happens regularly for one of my projects with several externals), the red cancel button has no effect - eventually, I have to kill the process and restart syncrosvn.

Is this a known issue?

Cheers

Dear Harold,

Thank you for contacting us.

The SVNKit library that Oxygen uses for SVN is probably blocked waiting for one of the external connection.
It is possible that the "Cancel" operation to not work right away.
When "Cancel" is pressed Oxygen issues the stop command to the library but as the library is probably blocked trying to open a remote connection the command is not processed until the connection times out (probably a couple of minutes).
Forcing the "Cancel" operation is not a good idea because the SVN repository might remain in a not-consistent state.
We will study this further and discuss it with the library's manufacturers.

Regards,
Radu
