To get my project from CVS on to the Eclipse IDE:

    2. Click on File > New Project…
    3. In the window that pops up, click on CVS Project from CVS, then click Next
    4. On the next window, select “Create new repository location”
    5. Enter in the following information, then click Next
      1. Host = “rosemary.umw.edu”
      2. Repository path = “/home/jmayx9ns/cvsrepository”
      3. User = (Your user name, i.e. “jmayx9ns”)
      4. Password = (Your password)
      5. Connect type = “extssh”
      6. Use default port
    6. On the next page, click “Use an existing module”
    7. Select the projects, “TimeCard” and “PrestoBooks” and click Next
    8. On the next page, there is nothing to change, so just click Next again
    9. Select where you want the projects to go, then click next
    10. On the last page, there is nothing to be changed, so just click Finish

Now that you have my projects on your Eclipse, you can right click on the project name and select Team > Update to get the latest updates on my code. I will post on my blog things that you can run and test.
