Hi,

How do I go about filtering out CVS directories from being copied during an exploded deployment?

Thanks,
Mike Fagan

They should be filtered out automagically…. can you please post all the information we request in the [URL=http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-393.html]Posting Guidelines[/URL] thread at the top of this forum? That will give us some context so that we can determine if this is an installation issue, a configuration problem, or a bug. Thanks.

Checking with a dev on this, I’ve never had this happen to me so I’m a bit lost with suggestions.

i am having the same problem as described by this user. we only recently started using CVS. i was hoping there was some setting somewhere i am missing.

Hey guys I checked into this and aparently the deployment tool checks with Eclipse if the file being deployed is under source control, that way it knows not to deploy the source control files (like CVS dir), however I physically detached a project from CVS to test this, and it STILL didn’t deploy the CVS directories… so I’m not sure why you two are running into this and don’t have a workaround for you… the dev was stumped also “I don’t understand why this would be happening”…. are your projects actively checked into CVS? I mean you have options like Update/Commit under the “team” menu right?

[mrzeld]

yes. I am using CVS quite a bit in my project since there are a few of us working on different web pages all the time.

i haven’t had to do a redeployment since starting to use CVS. the CVS stuff hadn’t been copied to tomcat all this time. but today, i had to do a redeployment (Redeploy Button) and the CVS directories were copied over. then i deleted the deployment and added it back. the CVS files are still copied over.

Can you check your Eclipse log file for any weird errors or exceptions that might hint to us what is going on?

Also if you do a packaged deployment, are the CVS directories still copied out?
