I have a sort of "strange" question :-) , I would like to have a
Java-Eclipse project with two different CVS repositories. The setup is
the following:
Repository A ---> my local machine (only update)
Repository B <--> my local machine (both update and commit)
Rep A contains (somewhere in the wide world) an open source project, of
which I always want to have the latest version.
Rep B is somewhere on an internal server in our shop and should host my
changes.
Could somebody say how one can handle this constellation with the
Eclipse CVS capacity?
Cheers
Amir

I see two options:
A) use a separate Eclipse Project for the open-source project, and have
your "internal" project depend on that one.
B) You can check out from multiple repositories into a single Eclipse
Project. You just have to keep them in separate directories within the
Eclipse project. For example:
YourProjectName/
.project
.classpath
OpenSourceProjectName/
<files from Repository A>
Internal/
<files from Repository B>
When you do Team operations on the whole project it will understand to
look at both repositories appropriately.
My personal preference is for option A - I like to keep projects focused
and single-minded whenever possible, like classes and methods.
Hope this helps,
Eric
