[vtkusers] VTK From CVS Please...

[Andrea Gavana]

Hello Ingo,

      I haven't had problems in downloading the VTK CVS after having modified
the cvsgrab.bat file. If you are interested, this is my cvsgrab.bat (on
Win2000, I don't know if on Unix the same modifications will lead to the same
behavior):

@echo off

rem ************************************************************************
rem * Define here CVSGRAB_HOME if you didn't define it a a system variable
rem * CVSGRAB_HOME should be set to the installation directory of cvsgrab.
rem ************************************************************************
rem
rem set CVSGRAB_HOME = c:\cvsgrab
rem

if not "%OS%"=="Windows_NT" goto win9xStart
:winNTStart
@setlocal

rem %~dp0 is name of current script under NT
set DEFAULT_CVSGRAB_HOME=%~dp0

if "%CVSGRAB_HOME%"=="" set CVSGRAB_HOME=%DEFAULT_CVSGRAB_HOME%
set DEFAULT_CVSGRAB_HOME=

rem Need to check if we are using the 4NT shell...
if "%@eval[2+2]" == "4" goto setup4NT

rem On NT/2K grab all arguments at once
set ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS=%*
goto doneStart

:setup4NT
set ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS=%$
goto doneStart

:win9xStart
rem Slurp the command line arguments.  This loop allows for an unlimited number
of
rem agruments (up to the command line limit, anyway).

set ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS=

:setupArgs
if %1a==a goto doneStart
set ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS=%ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS% %1
shift
goto setupArgs

:doneStart
rem Take a look to the definition of LOG_ARGS
set LOG_ARGS=-rootUrl http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ -packagePath
VTK -projectRoot VTK
set HOME_ARGS=-verbose -webUser anonymous -webPassword vtk
rem set HOME_ARG=-Dcvsgrab.home=%CVSGRAB_HOME%

java -jar %CVSGRAB_HOME%\lib\cvsgrab.jar %LOG_ARGS% %HOME_ARG%
%ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS%

if not "%OS%"=="Windows_NT" goto end
@endlocal

:end

I get all the files without problems... it is only (by far) slower than using
the very nice WinCVS, but I have no other way to go...

HTH.

Andrea.
