I was asked to do a name change and to maintain consistency, I refactored

  • 0

I was asked to do a name change and to maintain consistency, I refactored several classes to change their names. Now, the boss has decided he’s a bit nervous about all this and just wants me to forget the name change altogether. But, I’ve already refactored my code, although I haven’t committed it to CVS. Is there any way to get Eclipse to reverse the refactoring so I don’t have to just grab the last committed code? I can’t find a way to get Eclipse and CVS to work together to pull back the original code with the original names.

Thanks.

    Option 1:

    1. Refactor to previous name.
    2. Perform CVS update to get CVS to see files as not changed.

    This may not be 100% perfect due to formatting differences, but it should be close.

    Option 2:

    Use this if you don’t have other outstanding changes besides refactoring.
