P4Perl- Perl Extensions to the Perforce API IntroductionSo what's P4Perl about? In a nutshell P4Perl is the product name for a Perl module that allows you to execute Perforce commands without leaving Perl space and to get the results in Perl Arrays and Hashes. The module's name is'P4', whilst 'P4Perl' is the product name. The reasons for this are complexand historical so just trust me on this one.'P4' is a Perl/XS extension brings the Perforce API into Perl space. It's object oriented and should be fairly intuitive for Perlusers. P4 used to depend on the P4::Client module, but all 3.x and later builds are completely independent and P4::Client is deprecated.LicenseP4Perl is distributed under the terms of this license, which is basically the BSD license. You use it at your own risk.Build RequirementsYou'll need a fairly recent Perl installed. P4Perl can be compiled to workwith any version of Perl (that I know of) from 5.005 onwards. That said,anyone still using 5.005 needs a nudge.P4 is C/C++ based and you need a C and C++ compiler on your machineto install it. The C++ compiler you use must be compatible with the compiler used by Perforce to build the Perforce API you're using. Mostlythis is a question of making sure you download the correct API! Before you can compile P4 successfully, you will need to download the Perforce API tarball separately from the Perforce FTP Site. The current version of P4Perl requires a 2004.2 API to build as itincludes support for 2004.2 API features. If you can't locate theright API build for your platform, contactsupport@perforce.com.SupportP4Perl is not supported by Perforce Software. It is supportedby me, personally. So send all support requests to tony@smee.org. I'll deal with them as quickly as possible.Getting Started1. Get PerlLinux and FreeBSD users almost certainly already have Perl installed as it'sused by so many other packages. If you don't have it installed and youcan't find a binary package for your platform, then you can download thesource code from CPAN - the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network.For Windows users, ActivePerl is known to work with P4Perl and you don't need to do the build yourself.Once you have Perl installed, proceed to step 2.2. Get P4PerlI maintain a so called "stable" release of Perl for people who like to avoid using the latest builds. Those who are a little more adventurouscan use the current development build. Windows InstallersWindows users using ActivePerl can skip the rest and just download aWindows installer from the table below.

Must be installed and configured. In particular the SDP Environment file [$SDPEnvFile] must define a value for OSUSER. Development utilities such as 'make' and the 'gcc' compiler must be installed and available in the PATH. The 'wget' utility must be installed and available in the PATH. (Note that 'wget' is not installed with OSX by default, at least not os of OSX 10.9/Mavericks. However, it can be acquired and compiled using XCode).OPTIONS: -R rel Specify the Perforce release, e.g. r14.1. The default is $PerforceRel. This is used for both the Perforce API and P4Perl. -P perl_rel Specify the ActivePerl release, e.g. 5.24.0.2400. The default is $PerlRel. -r perl_root Specify the python root. The default is $PerlRoot This can be used doing a dry run of an an installation. It should not be used for a production install, since the SDP environment file, /p4/common/bin/p4_vars, defines the default Perl root in the PATH. -f Specify -f (force) to re-install the SDP Perl if it is already installed. By default, in will be installed only if the Perl root dir (see -r) does not exist. -w work_dir Specify the working dir. By default, a temporary working directory is created under $Tmp, with a random name. This temporary working directory can be removed upon successful completion. -d downloads_dir Specify a directory to use to find downloads. The default is: $DownloadsDir The downloads directory is checked for these needed tarfiles: $PerlTarFile $P4APITarFile $P4PerlTarFile -v Set verbosity 1-5 (-v1 = quiet, -v5 = highest). -L Specify.

Thomas Tyler Updated various scripts to use run() and rrun() functions in favorof predecessor runCmd() and runRemoteCmd(). The older functions won'tbe removed to avoid breaking scripts that rely on their behavior

Use latest community release of ActivePerl available,5.24.0.2400. #9 18913 C. Thomas Tyler Updated to latest available Perl (5.22.1.2201), P4Perl (2014.1),Python (3.5.1), and P4Python (2015.2).Tweaked temp working dirs to distinguish Perl from Python dir.These are tested on CentOS 7.2. This may not work with olderCentOS boxes, but we can't do much about that since ActiveStatehas deprecated the older ActivePerl releases. #8 16870 C. Thomas Tyler Updated to ActivePerl 5.20.3.2003, as 5.18 is no longer availableon ActiveState.com.UPDATE 2016/-1/21 ttyler: I moved the checkout to the 'dev' branchinstead of the 'main' branch, so I'm filing a new review andclosing the old one. #7 16832 Robert Cowham Update p4perl versions from 5.18 which is no longer available on ActiveState site to public.declare PerlRel=5.22.1.2201declare GLibcVer=glibc-2.15-299574#review-16833 @ttyler @rjackson #6 16563 C.

Thomas Tyler Modified install_sdp_python and install_sdp_perl to use independentdonwloads directories, since each may need to build with a separateversion of the core Perforce C++ API. For example, presentlyP4Python 2015.1 builds with 2015.1 of the API, why P4Perl 2014.1uses the 2014.1 API.Moved version ID near the top of the file.Updated default versions for utilities to install. #2 12028 C. Thomas Tyler Refreshed SDP dev branch, merging down from main. #1 10994 Robert Cowham Catchup from Main //guest/perforce_software/sdp/main/Server/Unix/setup/install_sdp_perl.sh #1 10973 C. Thomas Tyler Added script to build and install ActivePerl and P4Perl to standardSDP location, /p4/common/perl.Corresponding updates to p4_vars.template:* Added PERLHOME and PYHOME vars.* Updated PATH and MANPATH.
