Can I (do I want to) use the cvsnt client in the sandbox created by eclipse/cvs? I want to do a cvs update -d -C? Will I then be able to use eclipse on this sandbox? (In other words, does the cvsnt client do anything different than the eclipse client or the cvs client?) My colleague claims to have fixed the corrupt jar files in my repository. He determined they were corrupted in the repository (which is strange because I had been able to check out good copies). I hope he did a -kb when replacing them with good copies. I think I asked him and I think he did. I then did another check out with eclipse and only one of over a dozen jar files were corrupt. This is a big improvement. I wonder if he just missed one or something else is going on. Incidentally, this latest check out using eclipse was still missing my directories. However, he claims he could see my missing directories in his eclipse package explorer and I can see my missing directories in the cvs repository explorer. They are not in my sandbox after my latest check out, however. I'm hoping that using the cvsnt command line client in the eclipse sandbox will fix this problem.
