[jira] Commented: (MPCHANGELOG-64) Changelog Plugin doesn't parse .cvspass properly

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPCHANGELOG-64?page=comments#action_40686 ]
     
David Eric Pugh commented on MPCHANGELOG-64:
--------------------------------------------

It seems like things aren't properly handled when the .cvspass file starts with a /1 and the password is blank, so it ends in "A "..   That line:

/1 :pserver:user@server:2401/home/cvs A 

has only 3 elements, so the password is returned as null.  However, it should be returned as "A "...  I think....

> I have been testing Maven on Linux running Java 1.5.0_02-b09, and noticed that the Changelog plugin won't run against CVS servers.  Changelog uses a java library to provide CVS connectivity instead of running CVS from the command line.   
> I always get a message:
> org.netbeans.lib.cvsclient.connection.AuthencticationException: Wrong Password.
> I discovered that the format of the cvs information in the .cvspass file differs depending on if cvs inserted it, or the create-cvspass did.   
> CVS looks like this:
> /1 :pserver:dep4b@cvs.sourceforge.net:2401/cvsroot/maven-plugins A3333 x
> changelog:create-cvspass looks like this:
> :pserver:dep4b@cvs.sourceforge.net:cvsroot/maven-plugins A3333 x
> I think I have a small fix for CvsConnection.java's lookupPassword() method to deal with the two types of strings.   It just isn't properly implemented for the cvs generated one where your password has a " " (space) in the password name.
> I wanted to see if anyone else had run across this problem...
