[cdt-dev] CVSGrab and Eclipse/CDT ViewCVS dont work together

["Hagge, Nils" <nils.hagge@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think I finally found the 'magic' option. With '-webInterface' one can enforce to assume a specific web interface.

It started nicely with "cvs update...." but then errors again :-(

Unfortunately, this problem is described here, as well, in conjunction with an explanation of the cvsgrab developer

that it will take some time to be resolved.

This means that at the moment I can't check out the sources of the tests at work. I will have to try that at home.

Any ideas appreciated,
