I tried to use the follwoing command "update -A -kb test.doc" to update the sticky kopts, but the Update Command delivers an error: Illegal argument: null Debugging showed that the -kb switch is transfered to '??' Further analysis showed that the getOptString has no k Option in the getOptString method public String getOptString() { return "RCldPAfD:r:pj:"; } the cvs.exe tool shows that the -k option is allowed for update. Usage: cvs update [-APdflRp] [-k kopt] [-r rev|-D date] [-j rev] [-I ign] [-W spec] [files...] -A Reset any sticky tags/date/kopts. -P Prune empty directories. -C Overwrite locally modified files with clean repository copies. -d Build directories, like checkout does. -f Force a head revision match if tag/date not found. -l Local directory only, no recursion. -R Process directories recursively. -p Send updates to standard output (avoids stickiness). -k kopt Use RCS kopt -k option on checkout. -r rev Update using specified revision/tag (is sticky). -D date Set date to update from (is sticky). -j rev Merge in changes made between current revision and rev. -I ign More files to ignore (! to reset). -W spec Wrappers specification line.
done as you suggested. I haven't tried myself, please check it out in the next build (on Thu 12/Jul/2001) and verify or reopen the bug. Thanks.
