XP-Dev with Eclipse?

howardg22 picture howardg22 on Thu 21 May, 2009 22:51:37 +0000

I am using Eclipse 3.4, and I would like to use its SVN Repository Explorer to connect to my XP-Dev repository. Within Eclipse I successfully linked to my XP-Dev repository, then I committed an Eclipse project to the repository. Yet when I look at my repository on XP-Dev.com, it says I have no projects. What should I do?

A project is not the same as a repository, a repository doesn’t have to be related to a project. E.g. you can have zero projects and multiple subversion repos.

Projects are bundles of wikis, blogs, forums, bugs, stories, tasks, etc. A repo only contains Subversion information.

I know the difference between a repository and a project. If you read my post a little more carefully: I committed an Eclipse project to the repository. Yet when I look at my repository on XP-Dev.com, it says I have no projects. My question is: why?

"Yet when I look at my repository on XP-Dev.com, it says I have no projects."
Ah right, stupid mistake, the multiple possible interpretations of the word ‘project’ confused me a bit, you meant Eclipse project. With zero experience with Eclipse SVN from my side I’m afraid I can’t help you, sorry.

Think the confusion with Eclipse is that you need to check in your .project file into Subversion. Until you do that Eclipse won’t recognise your project in Subversion
