cvs aliases in Eclipse [message #162043] Wed, 26 November 2003 10:07 Go to next message

Hello,

We have a cvs repository with many directories.
We had created modules in "modules" file which are aliases.
For example :
webmail_etc -d etc webmail/etc

webmail_descriptors -d descriptors webmail/descriptors

webmail_dev -a webmail_etc webmail_descriptors

We see this last module in "CVS Repositories" view, but we can't extend it,
and the only checkout that we can do is "Checkout module". The result is a
project created for every directory defined in the module, and we can't
choose the location of the projects.

We want to checkout the module as only ONE project, which contains all the
directories; and we want to choose the location of thi project. In fact, why
can't we use the "checkout as project" ou "checkout as ..." for an alias
module ?!

Thanks.

Céline,

If you use the following module definitions, you will get a single
project (and be able to expand it in the Repositories view):

webmail_etc -d etc webmail/etc
webmail_descriptors -d descriptors webmail/descriptors
webmail_dev &webmail_etc &webmail_descriptors

However, specifying an alternate location when using Checkout Module is
currently not supported. If you need to use a custom location, you can
precreate the project in the desired location and the Checkout Module
will overwrite the exsiting project and keep the custom location.

Thanks for your help Michael,

I can now checkout my module and I get a single project.
I can choose the location too if I choose "Checkout as ...".
But I can expand the first and the second modules, but I can't extand the
third one.

Other idea ?

Thanks

The modules expansion code in Eclipse is fairly simplistic and there is
currently no plan to improve it. You should be able to work without
expanding the module. However, if you realy feel you need it, you can
always contribute a patch;-)
