CVS question: restoring files from CVS

Supposing one is using CVS for a project with the 6.2.1 IDE.
I would like “prove” that the files are in CVS
by starting a new project and the extracting the existing files
from CVS into this project. How does one do this?
I tried creating a new project and going to “Team”, but there
is no option there other than sharing this project.
Am I going about this in the wrong way?

Maybe I don’t understand your intention, but the general way how to create
new project from CVS is just to go to CVS perspective and do “Check out as a
project…” operation for any folder. It creates all the stuff in your
workspace, you just need to convert it to C or C++ project (QDE or not QDE)
using New wizard. Maybe you even can use Check Out as…, I just forget is it
work and don’t have a chance now to test it. There is no way to check out
selected files (except the case of synchronizing of existing project with
your workspace.

Thank you, the CVS perspective does it for me
