Re: Question sharing modules

[Allen Jensen]

First, create a "common" project that has all of the source modules from
both projects.  Then, in the modules file, define two new projects, each
with only the files from the common project which they need.

Unfortunately, this means that your name-space cannot overlap between the
files that are NOT shared.

This is only one way of accomplishing what you want - in general, using the
modules file in CVSROOT of the repository is the suggested way of having
variations of projects that include different sets of files from a single common
project.

Hope this helps -
