Re:CVS/ANT/Win2K

[Charles de Villiers]

Oops - I didn't put in that "file:" stuff, my mail client did The actual paths I tried are "//Beta/Projects@C/CVS" and ":local://Beta/Projects@C/CVS"   Original message follows: >Hi, >I am trying to execute CVS from ANT under Win2000. My problem is to make it >recognize the repository. >If I specify "-d file://Beta/Projects@C/CVS" (a UNC path)  the message is >"file://Beta/Projects@C/CVS must be an absolute pathname" >Putting :local: in front of the path doesn't help either. ANT/CVS complains >"cvs.exe checkout: missing hostname in CVSROOT: >:local://Beta/Projects@C/CVS >cvs.exe [checkout aborted]: Bad CVSROOT." >I have tried various combinations of forward & backslashes as well as some >bad language, but nothing seems to work. >Can someone help me please?
