Could we make turn the Connection Method field in New Generic VCS wizard | Profile tab | CVS Profile a combo box with the different choices? It makes more sense than having the user type in the name of the connection method.
This issue depends on issue #21338 to be fixed. Also an enhancement in the variable input dialog would be necessary, because the value must be editable, it's not possible to fill all possible values into the combobox.
Starting to work on it...
Warning for test writers: this change will lead to the fact, that "CVS Server Type" will not be JTextField, but editable JComboBox. Please adapt the automatic tests as appropriate. I have the change already prepared locally, but will check it in on Friday so that it will not influence the next Q-build.
Okay, I will adjust VCSWizardProfile.setCVSServerType(String) method today so that NetBeans 3.4 development tests are not affected. Thanks for notification, Martin !
Fixed in the main trunk. The change will appear in the dev build on Monday.
Verified in development build #200204230100 of NetBeans 3.4.
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
