### About This Project

JoinCheck is a simple command-line tool that displays information about
joined mappings in a Perforce server.

`Usage: joincheck [ -b branch -c client -C charset -p port -u user -d -v ] [ path ]`

By default, output is given for the current user and client, and no
branch view is included. Specifying a different user requires use of the
*p4 protects -u* command and therefore *super* access. If a path is
specified, it must be fully qualified in either //depot or //client
syntax.

The default output contains a simple count of the number of lines in the
joined mapping, and the greatest number of wildcards found in any one
line.

If **-v** is specified, the full joined mapping is displayed as well.

`e.g.`\
`C:\> joincheck.exe -v`\
` Joined map size: 19 lines`\
` Most wild line:  1 wildcards`\

If **-d** is specified, a debug output is displayed:

`e.g.`\
`C:\> joincheck.exe -d`\
`   User: stephen_moon`\
` Client: pub_ws`\
`   Port: public.perforce.com:1666`\
`Charset:`\
` Joined map size: 19 lines`\
` Most wild line:  1 wildcards`

Note that the number of lines permitted in a map join is constrained by
the following limits:

`   map.joinmax1       10K     Produce at most map1+map2+joinmax1`\
`   map.joinmax2       1M      Produce at most joinmax2`
