Hello,
I set label decoration in CVS and it work fine with my local change files.
When another user change file and commit in repository I don't see change
(version is old, version in CVS perspective is fine)
Yet another question :
When I update one file that work fine, but when I update complete project
files don't updated.

Please help

By definition, the flags are only that you have made a change locally.
You need to synchronize (or update) to get in line with what is in the
repository. Access to the repository is never automatic, it always
require a user action because the repository is remote.

The second question I didn't understant what was being said.

btw.
I have project snpe and file snpe.txt.
File snpe.txt has been changes with other user and I see in CVS this change
When I choose team->update for file snpe.txt in my local tree,file is
updated, but if I choose team->update for snpe (complete project) file
isn't updated.I don't know which files are changed with another user and
update for complete project don't work that is a problem for me

thanks

That may be true for netbeans, but Eclipse doesn't work that way.

This works for me. The only thing I can think of is that you had local
changes and the repository had changes and they were in conflict in some
way. I think update won't update in that case.

ok, but can I see change from other users in file decoration ?

No, Eclipse doesn't mark changes in the repository thru decorations. You
need to do Team->Synchronize to see the changes and merge them into your
local workspace.

I don't think so. .project and .classpath checked into CVS are
extremelly useful because then others can check the project out and get
the same classpath/buildpath and project configuration as you. You don't
need to do Check Project Out As... because it knows the kind of project
it is from the .project file. This can be very important and should
normally be done.

However, I recommend using Team->Synchronize instead of Team->Update.
Synchronize will tell you exactly what is different, while Update just
merges in the non-conflicting changes. Conflicts aren't merged, nor, I
think, is there any indication that there were conflicts.

If I have decoration for local update, I would like to decoration for cvs
update and/or conflict.I know for synchronize, but I want only first look
for CVS update (and/or conflict), like > for local update.
I know that it isn't possible now, but what about add features in eclipse,
btw

You need to go to bugzilla and open a request.
