When you point your browser to <code>public.perforce.com</code>, you're browsing files in a Perforce depot. For example, the file you're reading now is stored in the Public Depot as "//public/index.html". </p> <p> WebKeeper source files are available in the Perforce Public Depot in the <a href="perforce/webkeeper/index.html">//public/perforce/webkeeper</a> path. For more information about the Perforce C++ API, see the Perforce <a href="http://www.perforce.com/perforce/loadsupp.html">Related Software</a> page. </p> </dd> <dt><a href="http://www.perforce.com/perforce/doc.002/manuals/p4web/index.html">P4Web</a></dt> <dd> <p> The alternate web server on this site is a P4Web Viewer, listening on <code>public.perforce.com:8080</code>. </p> <p> P4Web lets you navigate a depot hierarchy, observe activity, and browse file content. (The links on this page to Public Depot paths are handled by P4Web.) <a href="http://public.perforce.com:8080/@ra=s@/"><em>Start here</em></a> to try it out. </p> <p> Like WebKeeper, P4Web sends documents to your web browser directly from a Perforce depot. For example, the page you're reading now is also available through P4Web at:</p> <pre><a href="http://public.perforce.com:8080/public/index.html">http://public.perforce.com:8080/public/index.html</a></pre> <p> Unlike WebKeeper, however, P4Web's Back-in-Time Browsing ® lets you "go back in time" to browse documents stored in a Perforce depot. For example to see what this page looked like at 1:00 pm back in October 2, 1998, say, you could point your browser to:</p> <pre><a href="http://public.perforce.com:8080/public/index.html@1998/10/02:13:00">http://public.perforce.com:8080/public/index.html@1998/10/02:13:00</a></pre> <p> P4Web is currently available from the <a href="http://www.perforce.com/perforce/loadprog.html">Perforce Downloads</a> page. </p> </dd> <dt><a href="http://public.perforce.com/guest/fredric_fredricson/P4DB/rel/2.1/README.html">P4DB</a></dt> <dd> <p> P4DB is a suite of CGI scripts in Perl contributed by Perforce user Fredric Fredricson. It lets you navigate a depot hierarchy, observe activity, and browse file content. The latest P4DB release is available in the Public Depot <a href="http://public.perforce.com:8080/guest/fredric_fredricson/P4DB/rel/?ac=83">here</a>. </p> <p> NOTE: Security problems have been found with the P4DB implementation. Refer to this <a href="http://seclists.org/lists/bugtraq/2004/May/0058.html">Bugtraq notification</a> for more details. </p> </dd> <dt><a href="ftp://public.perforce.com/">P4FTP</a></dt> <dd> <p> P4FTP, a supported Perforce product, allows access to a Perforce depot via the widely-implemented ftp protocol. As featured <a href="ftp://public.perforce.com"><em>here</em></a>, it is configured to provide read-only access for browsing and downloading content from the Perforce Public Depot. </p> <p> P4FTP can also be used by registered Public Depot users for read-write access; in this mode, it allows Perforce to be used conveniently from software with ftp client support, (like Dreamweaver, Netscape, and Internet Explorer) to browse, download, or upload Perforce depot files. </p> <p> More information about P4FTP, including download instructions, can be found <a href="http://www.perforce.com/perforce/products/p4ftp.html"><em>here</em></a>. </p> </dd> <dt>And...</dt> <dd> <p> You can run any of the available Perforce client programs (P4, P4Win, P4Web, etc.) on your own machine to access the Public Depot. Just set your Perforce port (P4PORT) to:</p> <pre> public.perforce.com:1666</pre> <p> Note that we periodically purge client specs created by unregistered users. You are free to create new clients but unless you're a registered user, don't count on having a persistent client spec in the depot. See below for instructions on becoming a registered user. </p> <p> Perforce client programs are available from the <a href="http://www.perforce.com/perforce/loadprog.html">Perforce Downloads</a> page. </p> <p> </p> </dd> </dl> <!-- Content ends here --> </div><!-- id content --> </div><!-- id main-body --> <!-- Copyright and bottom bar --> <div id="copyright"> Copyright © 1996, 2007 Perforce </div> </div> <!-- id outer --> </body> </html>
