P4Vcreates settings files, and (if you enable logging), a log file on your computer. These files are stored in the following locations under your home directory:
000x.ws: contain connection information for each workspace, and expressions or filters that have been used to search within P4V.
000x.ws.ui: contain settings such as window size and position, status information and directory state.
settings: stores global information about P4V, plus an index of the 000x.ws files stored on this machine.
log.txt: If you enable P4V logging, this file contains all information displayed in the Log pane (regardless of whether the Log pane is displayed).
P4VResources
,
located in the directory where P4V is installed. Before starting P4V, you must
set the P4VDIR environment variable to point to the directory containing the P4VResources
directory, or set the P4VRES variable to point to the P4VResources
directory. If the P4V executable and P4VResources
directory are both installed
under usr/local/bin
, the following examples show you how to set
P4VRES and P4VDIR:
% setenv P4VRES /usr/local/bin/P4VResources
or
% setenv P4VDIR /usr/local/bin
If you move the help files to another directory, P4V cannot find them automatically and prompts you to browse to them.
