CVS call
I try to use cvs task in my build xml-file. (Windows NT).
And I have several problems:
1. Command "checkout" is hardcoded in the CVS.java. Is there some new release
of Ant which uses all cvs commands?
2. Ant launches "cvs -d <root> checkout <module>" os command, but cvs copies
only a part of files from the cvs repository on my disk and then does nothing.
At the same time both cvs and ant continue working and never stop. Could
anybody give me an advice?

Thanks.
And is there some solution for cvs.checkout? It's the most important function for
us.

I found that <exec> is a suitable substitute for <cvs> when the required
functionality is something other than checkout/update. Eg:
<exec executable="cvs" dir="${X_DIR}" output="${OUTPUT_FILE}">
<arg line="commit -m "Build automated commit"
${COMMIT_TARGET}" />
</exec>
