any of you software developers/engineers use perforce OR Codewarrior?

[purbeast0]

well the other guy and I in my office are both having the same problems using perforce when linked with Codewarrior. basically we cannot get the diff engine in codewarrior to work when perforce is linked to it.

i am just wondering if anyone else has had this problem before. and btw this is on a Mac.

any help is appreciated

i have used one form of perforce or another for several years, but i have never even heard of codewarrior.

does the diff tool need write access to the file? you may need to check out the files you are diffing otherwise i would suggest using p4's built in diff. you can diff change numbers or files or all sorts of crazy things, emacs has a ediff which i know works and other then that i don't develop on macs so i am not sure what tools are available.

Haven't used any Metrowerks product since using CodeWarrior on the newly released Windows NT. Was around that time I first found Unix, and eventually ended up working heavily on a cluster in VMS.

Yea I was using the perforce one as of now. However it would just make it alot easier to do it through codwarrior. Codewarrior is a product of Metroworks, and its probably the #1 compiler for the Macintosh. It just makes it easier to grab files off the network in codewarrior, diff them in codewarrior, and then resubmit them in codewarrior. The error I am getting is that it can't open a tmp file that it is trying to create. But I don't know if the problem is creating it or opening it, but I just can't get it to work 🙁

I prefer visual C++ to CodeWarrior. Something about codewarrior that just bugs me.
