Re: [platform-cvs-dev] Checking out files not intended for a project

[Thomas Hallgren <thomas@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Michael,
eventually I found my way to the RemoteFile version of 
UpdateContentCachingService.buildRemoteTree(). The name is a bit 
confusing (doesn't really suggest that it's a file that's being 
fetched). Anyway, it basically does what you suggest with the comment:

           // We need to set the sync bytes back because the content fetch
           // makes the handle sticky
           remote.setSyncBytes(syncBytes, ICVSFile.CLEAN);

Which of course explains why my code didn't work. When I use this method 
everything works just fine.

I wish you a great new year. Thanks for all your help on this issue.

Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
