RE: [platform-vcm-dev] How to use an already checked out cvs-project in Eclipse?
|
I
tried to do excactly what you suggested below:
I wanted to share existing Eclipse projects that point to a
local CVS workspace
(checked out using WinCVS or the OpenSSH/cygwin CVS
client).
When trying to share the exisiting Eclipse projects I
get this error message:
"Invalid CVS repository location format:
:ext:myName@ourServer:/some/location"
"Location must have form
":methodname:[user[:password]@host[#port]:/path/to/cvsroot"
"Only the following methods are supported: pserver,
extssh"
Both
CVS clients use the method
"ext" (with SSH). The Eclipse method "extssh"
seems
to be unknown to both CVS clients. Trying to do it the other way
round, using
Eclipse to check out a module will have the unwanted effect that my
clients don't
work
anymore. Is there a way to use both tools?
I use
the latest stable build 20020214 and have activated all the new team
plugins.

Hi Thomas,
First thing, although we aim to be compatible with the command line
tools (e.g. use your command line tool then refresh in Eclipse and keep
working) we won't be testing these scenarios until at least the next
milestone.
Now for your question,
if you are already working on source in a CVS checked-out local workspace and
would like to start working on this in Eclipse using the CVS plugin, just
follow these steps:
1. create a
new project (either Java or a simple project) and change the default location
to point to you source.
2. Select the
project from Eclipse and from the context menu Team > Share
Project...
3. The CVS plugin will
detect that the project is already checkedout to a CVS repo.
4. You should see the CVS actions in the Team Menu
(e.g. update/commit/tag...)
We
hope that by release Eclipses CVS plugin will be your preferred CVS tool
<G>...

Hello,
this seems to me like a general question, that a lot of
coworkers ask me.
I have an already from-CVS-checked-out project
hanging around on my hard
disk. How can I "mount" it into Eclipse and
still use it outside with my
preferred CVS tool?
Best
regards,
Thomas
