[p4] A critical permisson in perforce

[- C Saha -]

Hi All 
   
  Here is a critical situation in granting permission in perforce ...
   
   
  Mr X wants 
   
    
   Read/Write access to //hardware depot to be restricted to Mr Y, Mr Z and myself (Mr X)   
   Read/Write access to //hardware/*/
 be granted to all others that currently have read/write access to //hardware/
 
  In other words, if there are no files in //hardware/foo then only the above 3 people can create a file under foo.  However, if //hardware/foo already has one or more files submitted under it, then all others with read/write access can create under foo.
   
  The intent is to keep the top level of the //hardware/... depot from being populated by anyone except for the group explicitly granted permission.
   
  This kind of restriction is clearly available under a Linux or Windows file system.  Can Perforce apply a similar restriction to its depot structure?
   
   
  I was just wondering if the request by Mr X can be executed or not. Anybody, any idea?
   
   


Thanks a lot to all in advance
