Re: [platform-dev] Eclipse and local cvs setup - is it possible?

Title: Re: [platform-dev] Eclipse and local cvs setup - is it
Eclipse doesn't let you use CVS in local mode--that is, access the cvs repository directly without an intervening protocol--but it will let you use a cvs server on the same machine as the client using either pserver or ssh protocol. You can enter either localhost or 127.0.0.1 as the host address.

BTW, a Windows cvs server isn't officially supported by Eclipse but both CVSNT and cygwin work. Some people report glitches in CVSNT however. Good luck!

No, Eclipse does not support the use of a local CVS connection. For an explanation, see the CVS FAQ at the following URL:

hi All

i installed a local cvs server (from cvshome.org) on
my winXP machine. is there way to set up a cvs
repository using this cvs server and Eclipse being my
cvs client. Both are on the same machine. i tried
specifying my machine name, localhost, 127.0.0.1,
local in the hostname field of Eclipse repository
setup to no avail. is it at all possible?

thanks a lot!
james
