p4 fix
Synopsis
Link jobs to the changelists that fix them.
Syntax
p4 [g-opts
] fix [-d] [-s
status
] -c
changelist
jobName
...
Description
The p4 fix command links jobs (descriptions of work to be done) to a changelist (a set of changes to files that does the work described by a job).
If the changelist has not yet been submitted, the job appears on the
p4 submit or
p4 change form for the
changelist to which it's linked, and under normal circumstances, the
status of the job is changed to closed
when the
changelist is submitted. If the changelist has already been submitted when
you run p4 fix, the job's status is changed to a
default status (typically closed
) immediately.
To change a job status to something other than the default status
(typically closed
) when you submit a changelist, supply
the -s
option to p4 fix,
p4 submit, or
p4 change.
Because described work can be fixed over multiple changelists, one job can be linked to multiple changelists. Because a single changelist might fix ten bugs, multiple jobs can be linked to the same changelist. You can do this in one command execution by providing multiple jobs as arguments to p4 fix.

-
Because the format of jobs can be changed from site to site, it is possible that the jobs on your system no longer have a
Status:
field. If so, you can still link jobs to changelists with p4 fix, but Perforce will not change any of the job fields' values when the changelist is submitted. -
You can change a fixed or unfixed job's status at any time by editing the job with p4 job.
-
Another way to fix (or unfix) a job is to add it to (or delete it from) the
Jobs:
field of an unsubmitted changelist's p4 submit or p4 change form. -
You can't p4 fix a job to the default changelist; instead, add the job to the
Jobs:
field of the default changelist's p4 submit form when submitting it to the depot. -
If you use p4 fix -s
status
on a job, and then use the-s
option with p4 submit or p4 change, theJobs:
field of the changelist's form will also require a status value (the default value being the one specified by p4 fix -sstatus
). The job(s) will be assigned the specifiedstatus
upon successful submission of the changelist. If no status value is specified in the form, the error message:Wrong number of words for field 'Jobs'.
is displayed.
p4 fix -s
status
, p4 submit -s, and p4 change -s are intended for use in conjunction with defect tracking systems.Under normal circumstances, end users do not use these commands, and use p4 submit and p4 change without the
-s
option. In this case, only the job number is required in theJobs:
field, and each job's status is set to a default value (typicallyclosed
) on completion of the submit.
