First.. Congratulations to all 4

Ok.. I am having the following problem...

For a Java Project, in Team Synchronizing perspective I can see that it is asking me to COMMIT a new folder (PROJECT/bin) into CVS. However, I cannot see that folder under Java Perspective. No filters applied.

Any idea ?

Regards,
Arijit

The Package Explorer view in the Java perspective automatically filters out the /bin directory (which contains all of your .class files). You can use other views like the Navigator view in the Resource perspective to see those files.

In general, you probably don't want to commit your /bin directory to CVS. You can add a ".cvsignore" file to the root of your project to tell Eclipse/CVS to ignore specific files and folders (just add "bin" to that file). Each excluded file or directory should appear on a separate line.

Arijit,
Also note that it isn't so terrible if the bin folder gets committed. Eclipse filters out .class files by default. So it is just an empty folder in CVS.

You can do this in Eclipse by simply choosing "add to cvsignore..." from the team submenu.
