I am having trouble with some of the Nant Perforce tasks.
First problem is with "p4change". I am doing this:
<property name="p4Changelist" value="test_test_test"/>
<p4change changelist="${p4Changelist}"
client="${p4Client}"
port="${p4Port}"
user="${p4User}"
verbose="${isDebug}"/>
This is attempting to bring up a text file for me to edit which it
shouldn't be doing in the middle of a nant build.
===============================================
Here's the other problem.
I manually create a changelist, and put in my description
"test_test_test". Perforce numbers this changelist as 1001:
Now if I do this:
<property name="p4Changelist" value="test_test_test"/>
<p4edit
view="${assemblyInfoFile}"
changelist="${p4Changelist}"
client="${p4Client}"
port="${p4Port}"
user="${p4User}"
verbose="${isDebug}"
failonerror="false"/> <!--Already Checked out?-->
The file ${assemblyInfoFile} is checked out against the changelist 1001
and not the default changelist.
And, if I do this:
<property name="p4Changelist" value="test_test_test"/>
<p4submit
changelist="${p4Changelist}"
client="${p4Client}"
port="${p4Port}"
user="${p4User}"
verbose="${isDebug}"/>
The submit is done against changelist 1001 and not the default
changelist.
However, if I do this:
<property name="p4Changelist" value="test_test_test"/>
<p4revert
changelist="${p4Changelist}"
client="${p4Client}"
port="${p4Port}"
user="${p4User}"
verbose="${isDebug}"/>
I get the following error:
[p4revert] Usage: revert [ -a -n -k -c changelist# ] files...
[p4revert] Missing/wrong number of arguments.
Even worse, If I do this:
<!-- I manually created Changelist #1001 for this Nant build -->
<property name="p4Changelist" value="1001"/>
<p4edit
view="${assemblyInfoFile}"
changelist="${p4Changelist}"
client="${p4Client}"
port="${p4Port}"
user="${p4User}"
verbose="${isDebug}"
failonerror="false"/> <!--Already Checked out?-->
Nant creates a new changelist with a description of "1001" instead of
using Changelist #1001! At least this:
<property name="p4Changelist" value="1001"/>
<p4submit
changelist="${p4Changelist}"
client="${p4Client}"
port="${p4Port}"
user="${p4User}"
verbose="${isDebug}"/>
Is using the same changelist as my original p4edit task (even its not
the one I specified).
However, this:
<property name="p4Changelist" value="1001"/>
<p4revert
changelist="${p4Changelist}"
client="${p4Client}"
port="${p4Port}"
user="${p4User}"
verbose="${isDebug}"/>
Still gives me the following error:
[p4revert] Usage: revert [ -a -n -k -c changelist# ] files...
[p4revert] Missing/wrong number of arguments.
I really don't mind if p4submit, p4edit, and other Perforce Nant tasks
use the Changelist description and not the changelist number. It is also
rather convenient that these tasks seem to create the changelist if one
doesn't already exist with that description. However, the p4revert task
is out of sync with the rest of the Perforce tasks, and the p4change
task is pretty useless. Also, the "p4label" task doesn't work as
documented. In the "p4label" task, you must have a "view" parameter
while the documentation says it is optional.
