AW: Return value of an executed cvs command from a jsp page

Thanx for the quick response,

it helps, but there are still some open questions.
How can I fetch all the stdout/sterr messages in a jsp-Page?
Are the messages sent immediately so that I can get the messages from such a
listener right after the execution of the command?

Best regards
Alexander Hildenbrand

Hello.

you can attach the CVSListener to teh command that will send you all the
messages. These messages 
are separated in 2 groups: one are considered informational and are sent to
stdout by command-line 
cvs. some are sent to stderr and could be considered "errors". However they
are partly also 
informational. The global switches -Q and -q are meant to regulate what's
sent (-q results in 
ommiting the stdout output and sending just sterr output). The stderr/stdout
indication is handled 
in the MessageEvent class.

The error handling is quite a mess in cvs protocol and is generally targeted
at command-line usage 
and assumes user will know what's going on. It's not well suited from
machine/automatic processing.
Each command ends with "ok" or "error" response.. even when generally
useful, they have strange 
semantics for the diff command (error means there were differences found)

sometime it can even happen that the server closes connection without *any*
error message. The 
command line cvs prints out that the server closed connection and you should
consult previous 
messages, "if any"..


Does it help?
