CVS in EA5
« on: May 17, 2005, 05:24:51 pm »
Trying to put a model into CVS for the first time, and running two problems - app crash, and bad operaton of CVS:

Background - created a directory structure in CVS: /engineering/uml/myproject, and checked that out onto my local disk. So I have the directory structure and CVS subdirs but no real content. Have an existing project in EA, in a different directory. Defining a CVS configuration in EA that uses my /engineering/uml/myproject as local repository and saved the configuration successfully (including the part where it does SSH-based login to CVS).

(1) Crashed EA:

I tried to bring a Component Model under control, just referenceing the only CVS config I have  - got a Windows dialog to the effect that '0x5ad71531 referenced memory 0x00000014 could not be "read"'... the Admin Events Application log shows:

Faulting application ea.exe, version 5.0.0.764, faulting module ea.exe, version 5.0.0.764, fault address 0x003e07ef.

Fault bucket 196042909.

(2) restart EA, open the model, it shows the Component Model is under-control (red bar on icon) but the Configure menu has blank for the Version Control configuration. Select my config as the Version Control config, agree to the dialog that says I'm about to add this package to version control, a bunch of exports happen and then I get an EA dialog saying:

"Unexpected response from CVS. Please contact Sparx Support: cvs commit: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directopry cvs commit: use 'cvs add' to create a model for Component Model.xml cvs [commit aborted]: correct above errors first!"

I can repeat step 2, keep getting 'need to do cvs add' message

So - the instructions don't tell me what to do here. Should I export the model to XMI myself somehow and do my owwn manual CVS add?

Hi wstidolph,

Thanks for alerting us to this.  Would you be able to send a bug report to sparxsupport and include a screenshot of your version control config screen? If you have a sample eap file that we can use to reproduce the problem, that would be helpful also. Other details that might be useful include windows version, service pack etc.

We haven't seen this behaviour in our own testing of EA/CVS, but would like to get this resolved promptly.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Ben
