I recently converted a project from Xcode to Eclipse (3.3.2). After
some initial hurdles, I had the application up and running. I still
have many warnings to clear up but the major errors from the
conversion are cleared up.
The next step was to get the "new" project under version control. I
had been using CVS but decided to switch to SVN. I was able to get
Subversion (or is that Subclipse? Or Subversive? it all gets so
confusing!) to mostly work from the command line (using svnserve
and ssh) but not from within Eclipse. I was able to successfully
check out the Subclipse source to verify that the plug-in was
working. I want to use SVN with ssh but have not been able to find
a working example.
It should "just go" if your svn repository is setup correctly. See
File - Import - SVN
I agree. Obviously I don't have it setup correctly. I was hoping for
some direction or a tutorial showing how to setup svn+ssh. Perhaps I
am specifying the parameters wrong. I get a dialog with the error
message Folder '' does not exist remotely. The URL I am using is
svn+ssh://HostName:3690/full/path/to/repository/ProjectName
I'm not sure how to specify the user information. I have setup the ssh
(General -> Network Connections -> SSH2) with the keys that work from
the terminal so it should "just work."
Since there have already been several delays due to the whole
conversion process, I decided to stick with CVS for now. It took
about 10 minutes to get CVS working. I checked in the converted
project. Another person then checked out the project (using the CVS
Repository perspective, expand the tree, select the module I
checked in and choose Check Out). Everything appeared to work OK.
However, the project wont build. It is missing the bin and build
directories and the Build option is grayed out. How do I get the
project to build again?
Create those directories. It may be that CVS does not
automatically create empty directories. I don't recall.
I would have thought that Eclipse would create the directory, if it
was missing, when it tried to build everything. I have an empty bin
folder in the repository but I don't have a build directory. I added
the bin directory to Eclipse (File -> New ... -> Folder). OK. I added
the build folder. It doesn't show up in the WO Package Explorer but it
does show up under CVS as a new item to be added to the repository. I
don't want this. Build output should not be persisted to the repository.
Also, how do I move the build output outside of the project?
I don't know or even know if you can.
I also checked out a fresh copy of the project with the same
results. I'm sure it is something simple, but I'm just not seeing
it. Any and all help would be appreciated.
