eccvs - A Version Management System

The source code for this software can be downloaded from the CVS server and presently no tarball release was made. Just follow the procedure given below to obtain a working copy of eccvs project.

$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.sf.net:/cvsroot/eccvs co eccvs
(or)
$ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sf.net:/cvsroot/eccvs
$ cvs co eccvs

Dependencies:
This project is being developed using gtk+(C binding) and we are using the recent development widgets like GtkIconView. So to install this software, you need gtk+-2.5.0 (or greater). The compiled version of gtk+-2.5.0 will also be made available soon.

Installation:
We are using autotools to package the software. So the normal installation method is enough to install eccvs.

$ [go to "eccvs" working(checked out) copy directory]
$ ./autogen --prefix=/usr
$ make
[su if necessary]
$ make install

Now you can select eccvs from the "Programming" menu and work with it. The only problem is that your gtk+-2.5.0 path should have been set in LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. You can set it in .bash_profile file of your home directory.

If you don't want to install the software but you want to build and run it, you can just use the following make command.

$ make CFLAGS=-DNO_INSTALL
$ cd src
$ ./eccvs

Just make sure that you have set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
