| external cvs update + refresh = problems. [message #114961] |

So I have a couple of projects I work on eclipse. Typically I manage cvs
outside of eclipse because I already have a bunch of command line tools
that do exactly what I want.
After I do a cvs update externally to eclipse, and then a project
refresh on my projects within eclipse, I find that I see two versions of
every file in my project in 'Open Type', that 'Open Call Hierarchy'
shows that no method is called by anything, and other sorts of
nastiness. Rebuilds don't help. Restarting eclipse ditto. Eventually I
have to exit eclipse, destroy the workspace, and then re-import my
projects to start over fresh...
I've seen this in M2 and M4 and in the latest stable M4 integration build.
Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks,
-Mike Roark

Are you trying to use Eclipse CVS features and command line CVS at the
same time?
I'm not sure this is the problem you're having, but make sure that you
are not using Eclipse CVS. If you do have sharing on, Eclipse may update
your CVS Entries in the background as you work. The format that CVS
command line uses is different than the format the Eclipse uses. Much
hilarity ensued when this happened to me.
I doubt this is your problem, but just in case I thought I throw it out
here.

I have my doubts on this being the case, since it is not reflected in
the properties of the project, nor does eclipse make connections to the
cvs server when I'm using it as far as I can tell. (and cvs option are
all missing in the pulldowns, etc) But it's certainly not impossible
that it has some other invisible state that is confusing it.

Thanks for the ideas. I'm not on windows, nor do I use any other tools
besides command line cvs and eclipse (without using cvs features), but
if your speculation about not being able to turn off cvs *is* true, that
could be the problem.
Another thing is that I'm pretty sure this was not happening at some
point in the past, and then it started happening. But I've made so many
configuration changes (with eclipse usage), it is hard to know which one
caused it. I have a little spare time coming up, so I might try a few
experiments.
RE: Command line tools, I'd be more likely to give up eclipse than
command line cvs. For instance, one thing I like to do is crontab
updates and rebuilds for certain times of the night on certain days. I
don't see any way to interact with Eclipse without being interactive.
Simply not acceptable in my way of thinking. I like my command line tools.
