I can't specify CVSROOT for the cvs plugin for Idl 7 for Windows where
the repository is on a local networked drive. Details:

I am running Idl 7 on a Window machine with the project directory on a
networked drive in:

//Project/x0018/Stratwarm/src

(Note the preceding double // which is how a networked directory is
specified in Windows).

The files are under cvs control with the repository in:

//Unix/home/wgallery/CVS_Repository

Running cvs from Windows, the following values of CVSROOT works fine:

CVSROOT = //unix/home/wgallery/CVS_Repository or
CVSROOT = :local://unix/home/wgallery/CVS_Repository

However, the Idl workbench cvs plugin does not recognize either of
these as a valid CVS root:
- it does not allow for an access method of 'local'
- it does not allow two '/'s to proceed the repository location

Any suggestions on how to specify the repository?

Cheers

Bill Gallery

Have you tried using backslashes instead of forward slashes? Sometimes
Eclipse prefers to have files that way. So...
CVSROOT = \\unix\home\wgallery\CVS_Repository
Just a thought.
