Visual Studio. NETSameMicrosoftOfVisual sourcesafeGood integration, so many people are usingVisual Studio. NETIt is natural to use it during development.Visual sourcesafeAs its source code management tool. But when the project needs to useCVSAs sourceCodeWhen managing tools,Visual Studio. NETWhat should we do? This article will show you how to configureCVSMatchVisual Studio. NETSeamless integration.

 

1Required Software

Cvsnt:Http://www.cvsnt.com
(Select hereCvsnt v2.0.51bServer)

IGLOO:Http://www.jalindi.com/igloo/

(Visual Studio. NETPlug-in for accessingCVS),IGLOOAfter the installation is successful,Visual Studio. NETBy defaultSource ControlWill useCVS

 

2, ConfigurationCVSServer

If you use an existingCVSYou can skip this step.

CvsntAfter the installation is successful, a menu item is displayed in the Start Menu."Cvsnt/Service Control Panel"And in the control panel, there will be"Cvs for NT". Click one of them to open the following window:

(Figure 1)

InRepositoriesTo add the specified directory as the code repository. If the specified directory is still notCvsntRecognized repositories,CvsntInitialize the directory. 2:

(Figure 2)

Check if necessaryAdvancedUnder the tagTemporary directoryWhether it is a correct value. If the specified directory does not existVisual Studio. NETDuring the operation, an error is reported, indicating that a Temporary Folder cannot be created. 3:

(Figure 3)

 

3, CreateVisual Studio. NETAdd the projectCVSMedium

A) Create a newVisual Studio. NETProject (arbitrary ),SolutionThe view is as follows:

In this caseVs. netThere isCvssolutionSolution (Solution) AndCvssolutionThere isTestcvsProject (Project).

B) SetCvssolutionJoinCVS

Right-clickSolutionView, select"Add solution to source control ...", The following dialog box is displayed:

: Pserver: Username: Pasword@ Hostname: Repository

HereRepositorySelectMyfirstrepository, ClickCheckClick to test the server connection.CVS LoginDialog box, prompting you to enter the password (of course, the password can also be inCvsroot):

(Figure 6)

If the connection is successful, the following dialog box is displayed. Otherwise, an error occurs:

(Figure 7)

There are two items in the module information: the CVS module and the vendor. Generally, the CVS module should have the same name as the object (solution here) added to the CVS. Vendor can be modified according to your preferences.

If the specified module already exists, click Connect. Otherwise, click Create to create a new module. Because we add a new project to CVS, we should create a new module. If the module cvssolution is successfully created, the system will prompt you to add the project testcvs to CVS:

(Figure 8)

Compared with figure 5, the localpath becomes the directory where the testcvs project is located, and the CVS module defaults to cvssolution./TestcvsIndicates that the path of this module is under the module of cvssolution. Click Create to create the corresponding module in the directory where testcvs is located. Cvssolution/TestcvsAfter creation, the files in solution will be checked in to CVS.

So far, Visual Studio. NetThe project and CVs are officially linked. You can perform check in and check out operations on the project files to test whether CVS works normally.

You can refer to the above method to add a newly added project to solution to CVS.

 

4. Conclusion

In Visual Studio. NetThe process of using CVS in is similar to that of sourcesafe, but it is slightly different from that of sourcesafe in configuration and user interface, for example, during file comparison and other operations, iGLOO displays the output of CVS in the output window.
