Re: [platform-vcm-dev] File System and WebDAV Examples

[James_Moody@xxxxxxx]

There appears to be a bug in the configuration wizard which appears when 
using the examples.

I tried your *** Test 1 *** below, and I got the following:
        d) I got the error that you report
        e) I did NOT see a CVS properties page, I saw a FileSystem Example 
page.

Because of the way the sharing wizard is structured, it appears to be 
trying to run the finish() code multiple times, causing the error. In your 
case, it must have somehow run the CVS finish() code before it ran the 
filesystem finish() code.

In your *** Test 2 *** below, ignore the error; it should work fine.

I have logged bug http://dev.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=9138 which 
should be fixed in the next integration build (i.e. next week). I will 
post to this mailing list when I have released the fix to HEAD.

Thanks for the bug report, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi,

I'm working with the v2_0_4 Team examples (under Windows at present), in
preparation for building Team plugins for our Stellation SCM work.

In order to run the examples (under a separate run-time instance of
Eclipse), I have:
a) downloaded code from CVS (using R1.0 VCM support)
b) renamed the 5 plugin.xml.off files to plugin.xml
     (for all org.eclipse.team.* plugins)
c) Disabled plugins that seemed likely to conflict:
                 CVS EXT Core, CVS SSH Core, CVS VCM Core, CVS VCM UI
                 Version/Configuration Management Core,
                 Version/Configuration Management UI

*** Test 1 ***

Here's what happened when I launched the run-time instance:
a) I created a new Plugin project 'FooTest'
b) I opened the right-click context menu on FooTest (Package view) and 
chose
     'Share Project'
c) The Share Project dialog offered three choices:
                 File System Example (non-versioning)
                 WebDAV Example
                 CVS

d) I picked File System Example, and received this error:
                 Error: File System Provider could not be instantiated.
                 Reason: error associating FooTest with provider named
                 org.eclipse.examples.core.fsprovider_nature.  The Project
                 is already associated with a Provider.

e) Checked FooTest | Properties.  Found a top-level 'CVS' node.
     On clicking the CVS tab, I received an error :
                 "Error occurred in .... SimpleProvider..... see log'

f) I then checked a different tab, then reclicked the CVS tab.
    This time, I saw a CVS dialog for provider/project configuration.

Apparently, FooTest was gifted with a CVS provider nature before I had a 
chance
to associate FooTest with the File System Example.

************
Test 2.

This time, I disabled the org.eclipse.team.cvs.* plugins by renaming the 3
corresponding plugin.xml files to plugin.xml.no.

Under the runtime-instance, I verified (via Plugin Registry view) that the
R1.0 VCM and R2.0 CVS plugins were not loaded, and that the 2.0 Team and
Team Examples Plugins *were* loaded.

Then, I created some new projects (one PDE, one plain Java), and tried to
associate them with the File System provider.  Nope!  I got the same error
as before (".... already associated with a Provider").

When I checked the project Properties pane, no CVS node was listed.  (And,
of course, the Share Project dialog listed File System and WebDAV options,
but not CVS).

*************

It appears that any new project is immediately, automatically associated
with a Provider nature (presumably CVS).  Perhaps I'm doing something 
wrong?
  Enlightenment (or a workaround) would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
Jim
