Anonymous CVS access from Eclipse [message #600]

I'm interested in using BIRT for my company's BI strategy. However, I'm
having trouble getting Eclipse to get the CVS source. It always wants a
password for the anonymous user. I'm using the Checkout from CVS window in
Eclipse.

I am using these settings:

Host: dev.eclipse.org
Repository path: :pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipse.org:/home/eclipse/birt
User: anonymous (it won't let me proceed w/o a user)
Connection type: pserver
Use Default port is selected

I'm getting an error sayinng no such repository path. I have also tried
/home/birt.

Please advise.

Thanks.

The correct location is /home/birt. Can you access any other repository
locations anonymously, such as /home/eclipse? What version of
Eclipse/cvs are you using?

With Eclipse release 3.0.1, I was able to access the repository location
anonymously through pserver.

Thanks,

Denis

Kevin,

Seems to be working today. I tried it last evening when I first saw your
message, and I also could not get it to work. I verified with the Eclipse
webmaster that the settings were right.

In any event, it works now, so give it another try.

Thanks,
- Paul

The repository path is definitely /home/birt. It does work, as i got it all
down into my Eclipse IDE.
However it complained of not finding a commons-codec-1.3.jar, so i searched
online for one and path to it, that's ok.
But now its having lots of assert stmt errors.
Any1?

assert is a java feature as of java 1.4. Look e.g. at
http://java.sun.com/developer/JDCTechTips/2002/tt0409.html

Sven is right this is a Java 1.4 feature. If you have Eclipse set up to
work with 1.3 Java, you need to change a few things.

Windows >> Preferences >> Java >> Installed JREs make sure you are using
a 1.4 JRE

Windows >> Preferences >> Java >> Compiler >> select tab Compliance and
Classfiles
Set Compiler compliance level to 1.4
Turn off Use default compliance settings
Set Generated .class files compatibility to 1.4
Set Source compatibility to 1.4

Probably makes sense to leave the Disallow identifiers called 'assert' set
to error.

The issue is that by default Eclipse is set up to treat assert as an
identifer (1.3 behavior). The BIRT developers have used assert as a keyword
(1.4 JDK).
