CVS Modules in Eclipse [message #81324] Mon, 27 June 2005 18:52 Go to next message

Hi,

Has anyone been able to successfully use CVS modules with Eclipse? I
have verified that the CVS modules work outside of Eclipse (IE on the
cammandline in linux), but I cannot get them to work in Eclipse. Here
are the problems I've been having:

1) Checking out a module using the "New Project Wizard". In a "CVS
Repositories" window I right-click the desired module and select "Check
Out As..." and then select "New Project Wizard". This allows me to
select a "Java Project" however, the entire CVS tree gets checked out
rather than just the module.

2) Checking out a module into an existing project. In a "CVS
Repositories" window I right-click the desired module and select "Check
Out As..." but this time select "Check out into an existing project".
After selecting a new "Java Project" that I had previously created, a
folder appears in the project with the module name, but with no
subdirectories or files. "Updating" this falsely checked out module
causes the folder to disappear.

3) Checking out a module and letting Eclipse create a project. In a
"CVS Repositories" window I right-click the desired module and select
"Check Out". This creates a CVS project - not a Java project.
Modifiying the ".project" file could fix this (although that would be
really annoying to have to do), however there's another problem. If the
module is "updated" the entire CVS tree proceeds to get checked out -
not just the parts of the tree defined by the module. This does not
happen when the module is "updated" on the commandline.

If ANYONE has been able to successfully use modules in Eclipse PLEASE
prove it to me. I would love to be able to continue to use Eclipse.

Nathan.

That's strange, mine works well.
I dont think you missing something.
but when I'v tried all what you told.
it works well, and causes no problems.

anyway my test environments are:
Eclipse 3.02 and Eclipse 3.1 rc4 (it works well on both of them)
JDK 1.5_4, last version of cvsnt.

I never been suffer problems you said, even when I used older versions
of eclipse, jdk, cvs.

It took me a while to get it(3.0.2) to work with my CVS server but it does
now.

This is the recommended method, and I've used it many times.
One thought - are you certain that you are selecting a module in the CVS
view, or a data directory? Eclipse CVS Repositories view shows both, but
with different icons. Make sure you have selected a module, not a
directory, to check out.

HTH,
Eric
