Greetings p4ruby list,

I'm new to using p4ruby but my project is substantial so I'm excited to have this tool available.

Currently working on getting a basic understanding of how to work with p4ruby, so my examples are contrived. My code is also purposely verbose

as I hack about testing different things.

I'm trying to work out adding, editing, etc. files. I've gleaned some information from the documentation but I can't seem get how one retrieves the number of a new changelist. Here is my code...

require 'P4' p4 = P4.new p4.debug=3 p4.tagged p4.parse_forms

p4.connect p4.run_login

change = p4.run_change( "-o" ).shift change[ "Description" ] = "adding new files"

p4.run_add('C:\ruby_chips\test.rb') change.each {|k,v| printf "%-14s = %-40.50s\n", k, v}

p4.input( change ) p4.run_submit( "-i" )

p4.disconnect

This results in creating an empty changelist while the file I'm trying to add ends up in the default changelist.

I'm guessing that I want to change...

p4.run_add('C:\ruby_chips\test.rb')

into...

p4.run_add('C:\ruby_chips\test.rb -c <changelist #>')

but where/how to get the changelist #?

Regards,
