| Specifying a repository location</h3> |
| <p class="Head">Before it is possible to share the project with other |
| users an available repository must first be specified.</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>Open the CVS Repository Exploring perspective. The top left view |
| shows all of the CVS repositories that are currently being worked with. |
| As can be seen, the view is empty, meaning a repository still needs to |
| be specified.<br> |
| <br> |
| </li> |
| <li>In the context menu of the CVS Repositories view choose <b>New |
| > Repository Location</b>. |
| <blockquote> |
| <blockquote> |
| <p> <img border="0" |
| alt="CVS Repositories view" src="../images/Image82_repo_new.png"></p> |
| </blockquote> |
| </blockquote> |
| </li> |
| <li>In the CVS Repository Location wizard, the location of the |
| repository and the login information needs to be filled in. Assistance |
| from a repository administrator may be required in order to fill in the |
| necessary information. |
| <blockquote> |
| <p> <img border="0" |
| alt="Add CVS Repository dialog" src="../images/Image82_repo_new3.png"></p> |
| </blockquote> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <p class="Para"> In the <b> Host </b> field, type the address of |
| the host (for example, "teamsamples.com").<br> |
| <br> |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <p class="Para"> In the <b> Repository path </b> field, type the |
| path for the repository at the host address (for example, |
| "/home/cvsroot/repositoryName").<br> |
| <br> |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <p class="Para">In the <b> User </b> field, type the user name |
| under which to connect.<br> |
| <br> |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <p class="Para">In the <b>Password</b> field, type the password.<br> |
| <br> |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <p class="Para"> In the <b> Connection type </b> field, select |
| the type of CVS connection for the repository (The default is pserver).<br> |
| <br> |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <p class="Para"> Leave<b> Use Default Port</b> enabled. <br> |
| <br> |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| <li>By default the <b>Validate Connection on Finish<b> option </b></b>is |
| checked. <br> |
| <br> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <p class="Para"> Click <b>Finish</b> when done.</p> |
| <p class="Para"> Since <b>Validate location on finish </b>was |
| checked,<b> </b>the wizard will now attempt to validate the |
| information by connecting to the repository. In doing so it may prompt |
| for a password. <strong>Note: </strong>The repository connection is |
| only used to validate the information.<br> |
| <br> |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <p class="Para">Observe that the CVS Repositories view now shows |
| the new repository location.</p> |
