| <H1>Project checked out with another CVS tool</H1> |
| |
| <P CLASS="Para">It is possible to use a CVS project checked out using another |
| CVS tool into Eclipse. A common concern for those migrating to Eclipse is that |
| they already have their CVS project checked out on their local machine. You |
| <em>don't</em> have to check out the contents again to create a project in Eclipse. |
| When such a project is imported into Eclipse, the CVS plug-in may detect that |
| CVS folders exist and auto-share the project. However, there are some instance |
| were this does not occur and the project will need to be shared manually within |
| Eclipse in order to enable the CVS Team menu operations.</P> |
| <P>To share an CVS project that was already checked out:</P> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li>In one of the navigation views, select the project to be shared.</li> |
| <li>Select <b>Team ></b> <b>Share Project...</b> from the project's pop-up |
| menu. The Share Project wizard opens.</li> |
| <li>From the list of available repository providers, choose <b>CVS</b> and click |
| <b>Next </b>to go to the next page. (<b>Note</b>: If CVS is not present in |
| the list, it may be disabled. Clicking on the <strong>Show All Wizards</strong> |
| button should make it visible.)</li> |
| <li>The next page displays the sharing information stored in the CVS folder |
| of the project. Click <strong>Finish</strong> to share the project and enable |
| the CVS Team menu operations.</li> |
| </ol> |
