Re: error using jcvsreport

Hi Tompoes / Henk,

It looks to me like JCVSReport is having trouble parsing your CVS
Repository. The issue here might be a bug in bloof (the CVS parser) or
it might be that your CVS repository uses some new features that
bloof / JCVSReport does not understand.

If you're interested in tracking down the bug, try creating a smaller
CVS repository and seeing if you can figure out the exact formula for
causing JCVSReport to crash.

You may also want to try StatCVS -- see http://statcvs.sourceforge.net/
. While JCVSReport has not been updated since 2005, StatCVS is still
in active development so you may find it works better with your
repository.

Cheers,

David
