[cvsnt] cvs2ntslib.dll

[Bo Berglund]

Which version of WinCvs are you using?
I hope not 1.2???
Because in the 1.2 days you had to do a lot of fiddling with it after setup to make it work with CVSNT, basically replacing the cvs related files in WinCvs by the ones from CVSNT 1.10.8. I looked for these files before answering the last time, but I have erased them from my laptop disk since we are no longer using this older system.

But when I now go to my CVSNT server and look I can actually find the old installation directory on the server with the 1.10.8 files. And there is a cvsntslib.dll!
If you like I can zip these files and send you in a private email.

When I bring up wincvs, select a file in the right-hand pane, and click on
the toolbar button "Add Selected",
I get two new lines in the log pane:

cvs add x.txt (in directory D:\projects\src\alphacalc)
Error: Unable to load the library cvs2ntslib.dll

It's possible...

I've tried recompiling the cvsntlib.dsw and it compiles fine on my machine,
lots of warnings but the dll is created. I put the dll in the PATH and I
still get the same message.

Then I renamed the cvsntlib.dll to cvsntslib.dll and the message went away.
I got a dialog box asking about my home directory which I filled in (there's
no .cvsrc in there though). The message I got was:

cvs add x.txt (in directory D:\projects\src\alphacalc)
cvs add: unknown method in CVSroot: :ntserver:D:\WinCvsRep\TEST

cvs [add aborted]: Bad CVSROOT.

Garbage collection : purged 14 allocations

*****CVS exited normally with code 1*****

It seems "better" than before...
