Hi everybody,

I'm a newbie trying to get started with eclipse, and i'm
facing some problems:

1)How can i delete files from a project in the cvs ?
I tried to delete it locally and the commit the project but
it doesn't work.

2)How can i delete old version from my cvs ?
i tried right-clicking on the version -> Configuring branches
and versions -> delete but nothing happens

3) where can i find something like "eclipse beginners manual"?

Cvs have complete project history (and deleted file) If You don't need and
want fresh cvs you can delete modul in cvs server direct and add project
again - files deleted local aren't anymore in current cvs branch, but
history is in cvs
If You want more features version control you try subversion
(subversion.tigris.org) - They have eclispe plugin, too

regards

Be more specific - what do you mean when you say "it doesn't work"? What
steps, exactly, did you follow? Deleting locally, then doing a
Synchronize on the containing directory or Project does indeed work -
I've done it many times.

CVS does not allow you to permanently remove a file from the repository
unless you log in to the CVS server and do it manually. It is rarely
necessary/desired to do so.

Open the Eclipse Help, and you'll find several Tutorials under the main
headings ("Getting Started").

HTH,
