Configuring CVS to run with the IBM Integration Toolkit
Install CVS as a normal program
by following the usual prompts. Not all versions of CVSNT are
supported by Eclipse.
Configure CVS by carrying out the following tasks:
Create a directory on your computer,
for example, on Windows - c:\CVSRepository.
Start the CVSNT control panel. Select Start > Programs > CVSNT to see the icon on the
desktop.
Stop both the CVS Service and the CVS
Lock Service.
Select the Repositories tag, click Add and
create a new repository. Note that no entry appears on
the screen the first time that you do this.
Use the ... button on the next window
to select the directory that you created in step 1.a and
click OK. Note that when CVS has
finished formatting its repository the backslash in the directory
name is changed to a forward slash.
Select the Service Status tab and restart
both the CVS Service and the CVS Lock Service.
Enable the CVS Revision tag to be populated
in the Eclipse Version fields in the IBM® Integration Toolkit. To do this on Windows:
Select Window->Preferences
Expand the Team section and click CVS
Use the drop down in the Default keyword
substitution: field and set the value to ASCII
with keyword expansion(-kkv)
Add the IBM Integration Bus file
types to the Eclipse CVS configuration. To do this:
Select File Content in the Team section
of the window you opened in step 2
Click Add and add msgflow as
an allowable file extension. Ensure that the value is set
to ASCII.
Repeat the above procedure for the following file extensions
that the broker uses:
esql
mset
mxsd
If you use CVS to store other file types, for example, COBOL
copybooks add the appropriate file types as well.
