Setting a Relative Mount Point

When you mount a VCS filesystem, the Java package root might differ from the working directory root. To ensure proper functioning of the VCS commands, mount the directory at the working directory root. If you mount the VCS filesystem at a level higher than the Java package root, you can set a relative mount point so that the Java classes are handled properly.

You can set the relative mount point for a VCS filesystem:

You can set multiple relative mount points to access directories that are parallel with the Java package root in your source hierarchy. In the Relative Mount Point pane, hold down the Control key and select each mount point. Each mount point is mounted as its own filesystem in the Explorer.

To set or change the relative mount point in a built-in CVS client filesystem:

  1. In the Explorer, right-click the CVS filesystem's root node and choose Customize.
  2. Click the Rel. Mount Point tab. The tab contains a tree view of the directories in your CVS filesystem.
  3. Select the directory you want to be the relative mount point and click OK.

To set or change the relative mount point in a generic VCS filesystem:

  1. In the Explorer, right-click the filesystem's root node and choose Customize.
  2. Click the Browse button next to the Relative Mount Point field.
  3. In the Relative Mount Point Browser, select the directory you want to be the relative mount point and click OK.
  4. Click Close to close the customizer.
