Thanks for your prompt response..

 

Could you please also tell me what command gets run at perforce commandline when we issue P4::Run("&lt;cmd>", "<parameters>); from perl.

 

is this converted in to below command?

p4 <cmd>; <parameters>

if yes then ,"p4 sync -f //depot/automation/color/inxIDColor1.js" works at command line but

$p4->Run("sync","-f  //depot/automation/color/inxIDColor1.js"); fails.

 

thanks again

If you looked at the source code of the P4.pm module, you'll notice that the "P4::Sync" subroutine isn't defined there. This isn't uncommon in Perl modules. When you create a Perl module, you can take a shortcut defining all the subroutines (or methods if you prefer&nbsp;object oriented syntax)&nbsp;in that module by creating an AUTOLOAD subroutine. Basically, any undefined call to a subroutine is handled by the AUTOLOAD subroutine.

 

If you look at the P4::AUTOLOAD subroutine, you'll notice that any call to the P4 module that doesn't start with "Fetch", "Parse", "Save", or "Format" is merely translated directly into the P4::Run subroutine, so that any call to the P4 module in the form of:

 

P4::<Cmd>(<parameters&gt;)

 

Is translated as:

 

P4::Run("&lt;cmd>", "<parameters>);

 

So, to force a sync, all you need to do is:

 

$p4->Sync("-f");

 

which is run by the AUTOLOAD command as:

 

$p4->Run("sync", "-f");

 

By using an AUTOLOAD subroutine, the P4.pm module allows you to run any P4 command without the authors having to write an actual subroutine to handle that specific&nbsp;P4 command. For example, you can do things such as

 

$p4->Info();

$p4->Counter("review 1001");

$p4->Where("foo.cpp");

where can I get detailed description of p4::Sync command.

Our requirement is to force sync to a particular label. How can do this?

 

Thanks in advance.
