System Requirements

P4Perl is supported on Windows, Linux, Solaris, OS X, and FreeBSD. To build P4Perl, your development machine must also have:

  • Perl 5.12, 5.14, or 5.16 (ActivePerl on Windows) development files.

  • make (or nmake on Windows)

  • The 2014.1 Perforce C/C++ API for your target platform. Older releases might work, but are not supported.

  • The same C++ compiler used to build the Perforce C++ API on your target platform.

    (If you get "unresolved symbol" errors when building or running P4Perl, you probably used the wrong compiler or the wrong Perforce API build.)
