Re: [epf-dev] EPFC version control with Perforce (Austin, Matthew)

[Bingxue Xu <bxu@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Matthew,

An alternative is to use IBM Rational
Method Composer which is based on EPF Composer, and it supports several
SCMs such as CVS, SVN, ClearCase, Synergy, and basically any SCM that provides
the necessary Eclipse plug-ins. I'd believe it will work with Perforce.
 

Thanks very much.
Bing.

Hello Onno,
 
Thanks very much for your response. We'll have a look at the example of
integrating with Git/Subversion, and see if something similar is
possible with the Perforce plugin for Eclipse.
 
I will of course keep the dev community informed of anything useful that
results!
 
Regards
Matt

Hi Matt,
There is Eclipse plugin for perforce it seems. See
http://www.perforce.com/product/components/eclipse_plugin.
I think this
could be what you are looking for. In a similar way you can use EPFC
with Git or Subversion. See for example the discussion about Git now
some time ago
http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/epf-dev/msg03635.html.
HTH,
Onno

Hello EPF Dev, 

                
Are there any plans to enable EPFC to integrate directly with
Perforce for version control? Perforce is currently our preferred VCS,
and we are currently only managing to do series development. We would
like to develop in parallel as straightforwardly as possible.

                
How easy would it be to create a plugin that would allow
Perforce to work 'natively' with EPFC, in a similar way to how
CVS/ClearCase seem to?

                
In the absence of a specific plugin, we are left with trying to
break down our configuration management as described in the document
"Using EPFC with a VCS", which appears to suggest a rather convoluted
method of organising version control. 

                
Any advice on the best way to manage EPFC with Perforce would be
greatly appreciated. 

                
Regards 
                
Matt Austin
