We use InstallShield here (hate it, but that's another post.) You can work around this kind of problem (the read-only file problem) by turning on the ALLWRITE option in your client spec. This will sync all files as read/write.
Word of warning, though. Make sure you have CLOBBER turned off (which is the default.)

Am I the only one that misses that old feature from P4Win? There used to be an option to automatically revert unchanged files. It's apparently been replaced by an"automatically deselect unchanged files" option. It's very useful for people that tend to check out entire trees because some tools don't play nicely with read only files..like FrameMaker or InstallShield. Getting GUI people to go to a DOS box to type "p4 revert -a" isn't intuitive either. :) --Jason

That should be possible with a mid-submit trigger in 2004.2. I would prefer a behavior that would default to reverting unchanged files as opposed to failing the submit.

There is an option in p4win for that (Settings/Options/Perforce Objects/ChangeLists/Automatically deselect ...), but not in p4 itself. Personally I wish the standard behavior was to fail submitting any changelist with unchanged files. There are times when checking in an unchanged file is useful (clearing outstanding integration records, for example), so a -f argument to p4 would be necessary to force the submission in those cases.

I check out a file and check it back in without any change, perforce create a new file revision for it.
Is there a way to config perforce to recognize that the file has never been changed, and just do a uncheck out?
Thanks
