Re: [buckminster-dev] Problem running cquery to retrieve source code from Perforce

Hi James,

you use the p4 reader type together with the maven component type. This combination has not been tested before and you encountered a new bug. I entered it as https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=223950



The URI in my rmap follows same pattern as my example before, i.e.

<uri format="p4://xxxxxxxxx:1666/depot/mainline/module" />

Where, 'depot' is the name of our depot, mainline is the branch, and
'module' is the name of our module in Perforce. Is this the correct
format for the perforce URI? I can't find any examples for Perforce
readers anywhere.

I think it looks correct. The reason you don't find much examples for Perforce so far, is that most Buckminster users are using CVS or Subversion. The P4 support was written a while back and to be honest, it hasn't been scrutinized to any greater extend over the last year. We are serious about providing it though, so we will make an effort to fix any problems that you may encounter.

Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
