CVS Repoitory

[sang]

Hi,
I am working in windows environment, how can I get latest of all the files from the CVS repository, instead of downloading one file at a time.

Thanks

Cygwin is another option, you can get a set of Unix command line tools on Windows. It is a free (but large if I recall correctly) download, search Google to find it.

Thanks

To setup smartcvs 2.0 beta

1. Choose Project / Repository Manager from the menu
2. Choose add from the dialog presented
3. Select "Seperate Parameters"
Connection Type : Pserver
Server Name : cvs.jfreechart.sourceforge.net
Default Port
Repository Path : /cvsroot/jfreechart
4. Choose Project / "New / Checkout" from the menu
5. For repository choose the jfreechart
6. Modules : JFreechart
7. Default for next two panes
8. Sit back and watch

Hope this helps you

Thnx, the settings went fine but it is not able to authenticate the username/password. The same username/password works on the sourceforge-site. Do I need a different username for cvs access.

Thnks

I get a copy of the source from cvs by using anonymous as the user.

I tried anonymous as user name but shows following error.

checkout -P JFreechart
cvs server: cannot find module `JFreechart' - ignored

cvs server: cannot find module `JFreechart' - ignored

Command Finished.

My guess would be that 'JFreechart' should be all in lowercase.
