I'm not sure of how you are useing/accessing CVS or your operating system.
I would think you could do "test" check out from a command window. Once you
have a command line you know works from the command window, you should be
able to implement the same command from Ant.
I do something similar to the following:
<property name="repository"
value=":pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:c:/cvs/repository/repository.name"/>
<property name="project.version" value="tag.name"/>
<cvs cvsroot="${repository}" command="checkout" package="package.name"
tag="${project.version}" dest="${build.source.dir}"/>
You can skip the tag/project.version if you just want the latest from head.
Also note that a password is not required in my case since I log into CVS
in advance. This could be done via command line or via Eclipse or whatever.
Connecting with rsh or ssh is different and needs to be configured in CVS.
Again, I think your best bet is to work out your command line from a
command window. Once you have that and know what what works, it should be
pretty straight forward migrating that to Ant.
Good luck

PM
Please respond to
"Ant Users List"
I'm trying to do a simple checkout from cvs, and I get the following error
[cvs] cvs [checkout aborted]: /usr/local/cvsroot/CVSROOT: No such file or
directory
I am getting a /CVSROOT appended onto the end. I do not have access to
change this myself.
Here's the code.
<target name="checkout">
<cvspass cvsroot=":extssh:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/cvsroot"
password="password"/>
<cvs command="checkout" package="TestCVS" append="false"
cvsroot="/usr/local/cvsroot" dest="c:/temp"/>
</target>
Thanks for the help.
