Re: Are there ECB-users willing to pretest the nextforthcoming ECB-release with a lot of NEWS?

Hi,
 
thanks for reporting this...
 
well, after digging a little bit into this code (its still the same as 4 years before ;-), i have a assumption: What is the value of `vc-cvs-stay-local' in your setup?? For me it's t which means that Emacs stays local with CVS-repositories even if they are remote...a recommendable setting, BTW...
 
In general you will find all stuff related to your problem in the function: ecb-vc-dir-managed-by-CVS - see also the option `ecb-vc-supported-backends' where you could add your own backend-identify-function for CVS....
 
back to your problem (in ecb-vc-dir-managed-by-CVS ):
 
1. if vc-cvs-stay-local is not t then ECB will probably run into (ecb-host-accessible-p host)
2. ecb-host-accessible-p uses ecb-ping-program with ecb-ping-options...
3. ....
 
 
Well, if you have recommendations for better default values of ECB or changes in ecb-vc-dir-managed-by-CVS do not hesitate to tell me......
 
Does this help?
Klaus

Hi, i'm suffering the same problem for quite a while and I find out just now how to reproduce it.

Emacs will hang on "M-x ecb-activate" as soon as there's a  CVS/ folder in the same folder with the file you openned. And thanks for your information, i checked ps -aux and found this:

/bin/ping 166.111.111.111

and 166.111.111.111 is exactly written in CVS/Root. So i think maybe you opened a file under CEDET folder with CVS files in there.

I reported this on ECB-list too.

	 That's good because some ECB issues may be CEDET issues.
	
	 For instance, the first thing I noticed after doing ecb-activate with latest CEDET and CVS was that it blocks Emacs, and a ps -axuf shows:
	
	dc       16484  3.3  3.3  82972 68972 ?        Ss   13:45   0:22 emacs --daemon
	dc       16767  0.0  0.0   2060   756 ?        Ss   13:50   0:00  \_ /bin/ping cedet.cvs.sourceforge.net
	
	 First question: why is Emacs/CEDET/ECB trying to ping SourceForge? Is it really needed?
	
	
	 Apparently it never ends:
	
	$ strace -p 16484
	Process 16484 attached - interrupt to quit
	read(7, "64 bytes from cvs2.sourceforge.ne"..., 6064) = 86
	read(7, "64 bytes from cvs2.sourceforge.ne"..., 5978) = 86
	read(7, "64 bytes from cvs2.sourceforge.ne"..., 5892) = 86
	read(7, "64 bytes from cvs2.sourceforge.ne"..., 5806) = 86
	read(7, ^C <unfinished ...>
	
	 Better use ping -c 1!
	
	
	 This is something that can be configured in ecb-file-browser.el
	
	(defcustom ecb-ping-options (list "HOST")
	 "List of options for the ping program.
	These options have to ensure that the program set in `ecb-ping-program' only
	emits as few as possible ICMP packets, ideally exactly 1. These options must
	ensure the ping-program doesn't emit an endless sequence of packets!
	…
	"
	 :group 'ecb-directories
	 :type  '(repeat string))
	
	
	
	
	 Well, thanks for the release; ECB plus CEDET will enhance Emacs greatly.
