Hi,

Does any know how I can remove a 'sticky date' as it is preventing me from
committing anything to CVS.

Here's the error message I'm getting:
"cvs.exe commit cannot commit with sticky date for `<insert file name>`"


Thank you for any help,

Tim Christopher

cvs update -A

If you are really paranoid, and ff you have made changes to a file with
a "sticky date", I recommend copying the file with your change(s) out of
the way, and then forcing an update on that file to get rid of the
sticky date. Then you can copy your changed file back over and commit
it (after doing a diff to make sure of what you are changing, of course).

Sticky dates are used to prevent people from accidently making changes.

P.S. Most questions of this type are asked and answered in the
teamdevelopment group.

Hi,

My problem isn't so much to do with CVS but how would I fix it through
JBuilder IDE?.. I've looked under the 'Team' menu and can see no option
that may help.

I tried to access it via the command line
(C:BorlandJBuilder2005CVS<project name>) but it keeps on saying that no
CVSRoot variable is set - note JBuilder was responsible for setting up CVS
and in the past I have only ever modified it using options listed until the
Team menu item.

I am pretty sure there is no option to remove a sticky date. The JBuilder
CVS integration is not meant to be a complete CVS client - it just makes
many of the operations more convenient. You will need to revert to the
command line client, WinCVS, or something similar, to perform some of the
less common operations.

However in this case, you could rename the file to some other name, then
run the Commit Browser and do an update on the file.
