Thank you thank you thank you That seemed to be the problem.. IntelliJ used the system path from its startup point..
Thank you all very much! Greetz Lieve >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 28/01/2005 11:42:12 >>> Try to take care of this PATH at the system environment level. Make sure cvs is found is the $PATH ot %PATH% when you open a DOS cmd or Unix shell. This will fix PATH on IntelliJ like tools, as the system environment is pre-set. -Satya -----Original Message----- From: Lieve Van den Heuvel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 28, 2005 5:36 AM To: user@ant.apache.org Subject: Re: CVS command with Ant in IntelliJ Hi James Thank you for your answer but I know that the exec command doesn't make the thing work but it was just one of my try-outs.. I tried to add the path to the cvs.exe in IntelliJ but it seems that he doesn't find it afterall and that's the thing that's causing me these frustrations. So is there any other way to indicate to ant where the cvs.exe is located? Thank you very much!

Is there a particular reason you can't add the location of the cvs executable to the system PATH or user PATH, as suggested in http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/cvs.html > I would be very very thankful for your answer! > > This is a part of the build file: > <!-- The build.properties files contains the cvs.repository property > --> > <property file="conf/build.properties"/> > <property name="cvs.package.dependencies" value="ids/java/lib"/> > <property name="cvs.package.conf" value="ids/java/conf"/> > > <target name="set.environment"> > <exec dir="${basedir}/${conf.dir}" executable="cmd.exe"> > <arg value="/c setenv.cmd"/> > </exec> > </target> > > > <target name="dependencies" depends="set.environment" > description="Update the external libraries that are used from CVS"> > <cvs command="update -d" cvsroot="${cvs.repository}" > package="${cvs.package.dependencies}" dest="."/> > <cvs command="update -d" cvsroot="${cvs.repository}" > package="${cvs.package.conf}" dest="."/> > <cvs command="update -d -l" cvsroot="${cvs.repository}" > package="ids/java" dest="."/> > </target> > > Greetz > Lieve > > > ______________________________________________________________________ > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
