Hi,
In a situation where you have modules depending upon other modules how do you
specify which version of a
sub-module a module is dependent upon.
For example, lets say I write Product A which uses Utility Library I will have
a modules file something
like:
utillib src/util
prodA src/producta &utillib
Then I start writing Product B and I need to change the Utility Library in some
manner which I don't want
to expose to Product A, maybe remove some legacy support or something, I could
tag the point where I make
the changes to serve Product B then the modules file might be:
utillib src/lib
prodA src/producta & tag=legacy utillib
prodB src/productb & tag=nolegacy utillib
It seems to me there is no way to do this at the moment.
I have found reference to a patch which claims to do pretty much just this (
http://www.geocrawler.com/mail/thread.php3?subject=%60-r%60+modules+patch&list=383
), is there some reason
why this hasn't been folded into the main cvs devel?
Is there perhaps a better way to achieve what I'm after?
Is what I'm trying to do stupid?
Thanks
