Dear All,

I am new to eclipse. I checked in java file from remote CVS.then I modify the file then I compare with latest from head. the comparison highlight of the file even parts I didn't change.

How to Copy format from remote CVS to local file eclipse ? any ideas ?

thanks in advance,,,,

Try enabling "Ignore white space" under Window : Preferences : General : Compare/Patch. Also avoid doing Source : Format or Source : Cleanup before doing your compare.

Edit: Also, it's possible to export/import formatting preferences in eclipse. You may want to ask the author of the code if they would be willing to provide their exported preferences.
