Development build #031125_1 of Sun ONE Studio 5.1 Windows 2000 with JDK 1.4.2_02 Description: ============ If new files are being added into VSS archive and they are located at least under two directories far from FS root, they cause ghost [Missing] nodes to be displayed. Also "Verify" action says there are no conflicts if VCS group contains [Current] files. This happens if user makes a mistake when selecting profile and chooses PVCS and then VSS. There is some mistake with overwriting variables or something. Steps to reproduce: =================== 1. Invoke mounting wizard and select PVCS profile. 2. Change your selection to VSS profile and confirm your decision. 3. Setup everything important and mount your VSS filesystem. 4. Create new Java packages "a.b". 5. Select both nodes and invoke "VSS|Create Project". 6. Confirm the dialog. 7. Under "b" node create new "Test" Java class. 8. Invoke "VSS|Add" on the new "Test" node. 9. After a while there will be "a [Missing]" node displayed. 10. Add "Test [Current]" node to default group. 11. Invoke "Versioning|VCS Groups" and then "Verify" the default group. 12. Group verification dialog finds no conflicts.
After the performance of PVCS support was improved, this problem should not occur (or occur very rarely). Scheduling for future. The problem is, that the autofill command is finished after the profile is changed. There should be some detection whether the profile was changed before the autofill finishes (and the command can probably be killed when the profile is being changed).
