    http://ftp.perforce.com/perforce/r13.3/
    p4api-2013.3.784164 or higher

Building on  Linux
--------------------------

1.  edit Makefile.linux and set the $P4APIDIR.
2.  make -f Makefile.linux



Building on Windows
--------------------

1. load the p4-web/P4Web.sln file into Visual Studio 2010.

    * if Visual Studio complains that the project file has been renamed 
      or is no longer in the solution you might have to manually correct the
      dependency GUID's in the P4Web.vcxproj file.

      Remove and Re-add the project files
      ----------------------------------------
         - Open the Solution Explorer and expand P4Web solution
         - Select P4Web project 
         - Bring up right context menu and select Remove 
         - Add the project back into the solution
            * Select P4Web Solution 
            * right context menu Add->Existing Project...
            * load P4Web.vcxproj

4. set the P4APIDIR environment variable 

    * View->Other Windows->Property Manager
    * Expand P4win->Unicode Release|Win 32
      Open up P4EnvVariables property page
      Expand Common Properties->User Macros
      set P4APIDIR to the location of the downloaded p4api

      ** alternatively you can directly edit gui/P4EnvVariables.props 
         and set the path there.

    View->Solution Explorer
    Select Solution 'P4Web'
    Right context menu -> Properties -> Configuration Properties
