RE: cvswrappers

Thank you Milos. 

I am going to try and fix and have the code for your review. If not, I am
going to log this in as a bug anyway. As long as an Import Command is
available off the menu it should work as one would expect from a command
line client. If it is deemed as a low priority, then it should be removed
off the menu. 

Once again if anyone knows how to read the cvswrappers off a server please
let me know. I checked the CVS protocol and found nothing in this regard.

regards

Sriram (Ram) Seshan

have you searched in the netbeans related code also or only in the 
library's code?
as far as I remember (but it's over a year now since I last worked on 
javacvs) it's not implemented. this feature had not a priority enough at 
that time. Actually I considered the whole import command a low priority 
since that's usually one time operation at the beginning of the project. 
As such it has not much use in the IDE IMHO.

better file it as bug (or enhancement, not sure here..) if it's not 
filed yet. Others have to comment on the plans to fix it.
Concerning suggestions, I guess the cvs documentation is the ultimate 
source of information..
