Java Development Tools

Hi everybody,

I started to use Jdeveloper two or three months ago. Since that I have been testing its features and as part of this investigation I tested the integration with SCM and CVS as a version control.

I have had some problems with SCM, principally there are some files like struts-config.xml that when a user changes it and another user gets the last version of the file, the changes are not updated. It is a serious problem if you consider that the struts-config.xml is the main part of struts. Nick R Rudnik and Brian Duff (members of this forum) told me that is a problem of the version of the JDeveloper.

After those problems I decided to try with CVS, but the problem now is when I Check out a project, the project can't find tld libraries used by struts, also it can't find custom .jar files created as a libraries, which means a problem when you work with a big group of programmers because every time that you update or get the last version of your project you have to import again every jar file that you use.

I would like to know how to solve theses problems, or I'd like a recommendation in order to work with some tool as CVS or SCM in a way that I don't have to stop my work in order to solve silly problems.

I would like to hear your opinion.

Thanks,
Pedro
