Hi Matt,

We just use a perl script that hunts it down in the output of 'p4 changes -m 1'. That, in turn, sets an environment variable and a compiler switch as needed.

I'm looking to create a way to set some versioning information in our application using the last changelist number that was submitted against the depot. Does anyone with more experience have any insight into a good way to do this? I was thinking of using a trigger to update a text file but I am sure this is not the best way to do this.
