i have a repository A, contains first project, a framework for build
web apps,
and another repository B, contains second project, an application based
on framework A,
first step, i want to import A into my local working copy of B,
so A is readonly, B can read and write, i want to keep the link on 2
projects, so that, i can update new revision of project A, even work on
project B
how can i do that?
The framework needs no special treatment - it's just another project in CVS.
Your application should treat the framework like a third-party module.
Check out the application normally. The application project should
contain a script or makefile which will check out the framework, using
either 'cvs co' or 'cvs export', and then set the framework directory's
contents to read-only (`chmod -R a-w framework` for *NX or 'attrib
framework\*.* +r /s' for Windows). Of course, the first thing the script
should do is check if the framework directory exists, and if it does
then make it writeable so cvs can update it ;=)
Make sure your script always specifies the exact version of the
framework to checkout or export. This will simplify your configuration
management in the long run, and eliminate hard-to-find bugs caused by
one developer using rev X and another using rev Y of the framework.
