There are several ways to get the source code but the usual route is to take it from svn.

Hi Chims,

Getting the source code from svn is easier.

If you dont have it, you can first download tortoise svn from
http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads , get 32 bit installer downloaded onto your system and install it. After completion it probably asks for restart. Restart back and u can observe two more tabs svn checkout , tortoiseSVN on the rightclick of mouse.
Now create a new folder where u want the code to be downloaded, rightclick on the folder, click svn checkout, on the Checkout window type this url http://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/HEAD/ at URL repository and click ok.
The code is then downloaded from the svn, it takes time though….hope it should be fine.

Hello….. Madhu!!!
                     Well  I have tried out with the solution that you have suggested me,everything was working fine but at the time of extracting the code i.e. after writing the respective url in url repositry it extracted 11bytes of data and thereafter resulted with an error as

Error: Server sent unexpected return value (503 Internal error) in response to REPORT  
Error: request for '/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/!svn/vcc/default' 

Now can u state me what to do?I have searched the solution to solve this problem in google but till now didnt get the solution….Help me out if u can!!!

Thanks Chims!!!

Hi Chims..
I tried it again just now and it worked for me n even to some of my colleagues..So there's no problem with url or svn or repo.Probably there must be some connection error at your side. Try doing it once again at other path….No Idea othewise…

Hello Madhu,
                     I have tried once again but getting the same error as mentioned before….I dont understand what's wrong with it.Do you have some other way-out or any other suggestions in order to solve this.Because as I have noticed SVN is working i.e. I could see some of the folders created in my folder.But always it gets stop after extracting 11 bytes…

Thanks Chims!!! :?
