I'm working through this with Perforce tech support right now, but wondering if anyone else has seen this (since they didn't seem to know if it off-hand and it seems pretty significant)...
If I use the "-R" flag with Perforce commands, to get the output as Marshaled Ruby, with some commands, I only get the first file or item back. Specifically I'm seeing this with "sync" and "changes" commands. For example:
p4 -R sync
p4 -R changes -m 10
I am consuming these with code similar to:
Marshal.load(`p4 -R sync`)
I'm using Ruby 1.8.6 from MacPorts, on a MacBook Pro running MacOS X 10.4.9, and Perforce client "P4/MACOSX104X86/2006.2/112639 (2006/12/14)".
Update: Turns out that the output is still individual lines, but where the lines are marshalled Ruby. So, you simply need to process each line, with something like:
CMD="p4 -R sync"
IO.popen(CMD, "rb") do |file|
while not file.eof
hash = Marshal.load(file)
synced_files << hash['data']
end
end
