[p4] graphical representation of branches?

[Chuck Emary]

Jay,
Not sure what your specs are, but you might look at dot/graphviz
(http://www.graphviz.org/), I have used it in conjunction with a ruby
script to display Perforce info graphically.  It is possible to be very
creative with the file contents to produce customized layouts.

Cheers,
Chuck

Subject: [p4] graphical representation of branches?

Hello all you fellow P4'ers

I want to create a graphical representation of all the branches that a
product of ours has gone through.  I know that P4 doesn't provide this
functionality natively, so I was wondering if anyone in the P4 community
has developed such a tool.  Before somebody says, "don't forget the
'Revision Graph ...' functionality in P4V", yes, that's great, but it's
just for a specific file, not for branches.

I was thinking that the branch specifications would be a good data
source for this information (from, to, date, reason, name, etc).

So, has anyone already developed such a tool?  If not and I need to
write such a tool, is branch specifications the appropriate data source?

Thanks

JDG
