Checking out a project
Coworker Fred has several tasks in front of him:
- Fred will import the project that Jane committed to the CVS
repository into his Workbench.
- Fred will make changes to file1.txt and file2.txt.
- Fred will synchronize and commit his outgoing changes to the two
files.
Fred's first step is to import the project into his workspace as
follows:
- Run the import wizard via the File
> Import menu item.
- Select the Checkout Projects
from CVS item and press Next.
- Create a repository location as described when Jane created a repository.
- On the next page select the "Use an existing module" radio button
and wait while the repository is contacted.
- From the list of available projects, select JanesTeamProject and press Finish. A progress dialog will
appear showing the progress of the import operation.
- Open the Navigator view and observe that it now includes
the project JanesTeamProject.
Notice that there are CVS decorators indicating the file revisions, the
repository name, and the file types.
