I created a workspace in AccuRev under M:\EclipseWorkspaces\.
The project checked out fine.

Then I moved the project to C:\EclipseWorkspaces\.
Now AccuRev thinks the project does not exists. This is probably because AccuRev is looking for the project on my M drive.

How do I get AccuRev to find my project?

I am using version 5.3. This computer is slow so I'd like to do this using the CLI.

Update: I deleted the workspace in the AccuRev client.... Can I add the workspace on my C drive into my stream in AccuRev?

Ok, So I deleted the workspace in the stream (in AccuRev client)... or so I thought. AccuRev does not actually remove the workspace; AccuRev deactivates the workspace.

So first I had to reactivate it (using CLI):

accurev reactivate wspace foo_workspace

Then I had to change the location of the workspace in accurev

C:\EclipseWorkspace>accurev chws -w foo_workspace -l .

Notes:
-w is the name of your workspace (must be yours, can't be someone else's; there is -s for that)
-l is the location you want to change the physical location too
