Viewing Google Code in netbeans

[twiggzee]

this will be our first year using it as well. we also used labview last year and have found in our off season that JAVA is soooooo much better.

this is how we have ours set up:

our google code page is set up as subversion type (as opposed to mercurial). on the source tab you'll see the repository URL to your code. you'll be able to get your password here too.

on netbeans, you go to the "Team" pull down menu, "Subversion", "Checkout". enter your repository URL, user name (email), and password, click next.

then choose your local folder. i recommend using something on your hard drive instead of some network folder because when you deploy code you'll have to change your network settings and might not be able to access it.

(if anybody has any recommendations on how to deploy code without having to change the network settings every time, we'd like to hear. switching back and forth is kind of a pain)

back to the topic. hit "Finish" and it will do it's thing and ask you if you want to open the project, say yes, then voila, you have your code.

when you want to upload a revision of your code back to google repository, use the "Team" pull down menu, then "Commit..."

Good Luck
