CVS "checkout as Project" simple issue [message #169092] Thu, 11 December 2003 03:45 Go to next message

Hi, I am starting using CVS in eclipse for the first time. I have set up
the repository location, and then I did "checkout as Project" of the
module I am interested in. This module actually is empty, but will soon
contain java stuff. So my issue is: I did "check out as
Project", so eclipse didn't add to my local folder the "Java Nature". Will
it become java natured by itself as soon I start writing packages and
classes, or I am doomed not to have a java nature associated with the
project and so I have to do a "check out as...-> Java Project" (I didn't
know I could when I did it the first time).

Thanks in advance

Eclipse tells the type of project from the .project file. If you don't
have one when you do check out, it creates one. But the default is a
simple project, not a java project.

There is no simple way to convert a simple project ot a java project.

If the module is empty it is better to go the other way around. On your
eclipse create a java project of the same name, and then share it with
the CVS. Make sure you release the .project file. That way it will know
in the future that it is a java project on checkout.

No, you should perform a Checkout As and create a Java Project in the
wizard that is shown. Once you have configured your java project, you
can commit the .project to CVS. Then future Checkout As Projects will
work properly (i.e. create Java Project).
