Perforce JSP

Content
and for the Perforce JSP, a Java API based web interface to Perforce. This package includes all the pages required for a basic web application.

This application allows multiple users to access the perforce using the same web application using their own credentials. This makes it easy to add pages that implement other perforce functions and have them execute using appropriate authorization. An example would be a page that handled integrations from branch to another at the click of one button or link.

Getting Started
In order to get the web application up, you will need to have set up a JSP engine (web server). These pages have been tested only with Tomcat 4.0, but should work with any JSP engine that supports WAR files. The steps to follow once your JSP engine is in place are:


 * Download the file into your /etc directory.
 * Modify the p4jsp.conf file to work at your location.
 * Download the file into your JSP engines wep application directory.
 * Make your JSP engine pick up the new WAR file (i.e. restart Tomcat).

With all this completed, you should be able to access the web application through your JSP engine under the /p4jsp directory. For tomcat, this is typically something like: http://localhost:8080/p4jsp. Each user will need to log in using their perforce username and password.
