Perforce Software as well as other companies, whose applications house critical data, was the subject of a White Paper issued by McAfee on March 3, 2010.
As the White Paper states, Perforce “has long been a staple of source code control systems and has thousands of customers. Its products are used by the largest Fortune 1,000 companies.” It stands to reason that when hackers are looking for a company’s intellectual property (IP), they would look to Perforce where the content is versioned and managed.

Perforce Releases New Eclipse Plug-in for Its Software Configuration Management System
Now Eclipse developers can graphically view file history and better manage code review
Alameda, Calif., Perforce Software has released the newest Eclipse plug-in for its Software Configuration Management (SCM) system. With Release 2009.2, Eclipse developers can take advantage of a more fully-integrated Time-lapse View visualization tool, as well as, use Perforce's new shelving feature to facilitate code review.
"Not only have we brought our innovative visualization tool to the Eclipse platform, but we've customized it to give Eclipse developers more powerful SCM capabilities," said John Walker, senior marketing manager of Perforce Software. "We used pure Java to integrate Perforce's Time-lapse View, and now change history is organized in the content-specific manner that Eclipse users have come to expect."
Graphical view of file history with Time-lapse View
Time-lapse View provides a graphical view of the complete content history of an individual file. In a single view, developers can see how the content of a file has evolved.
Time-lapse View takes advantage of Eclipse's language-specific highlighting (Eclipse 3.4+). File change history can now be displayed in the standard Eclipse history view and branch view specifications can be managed using Eclipse.
Shelving facilitates code review
The new shelving feature enables developers to cache modified files in the Perforce Server without checking them in. Shelving improves team collaboration and gives developers more flexibility in managing multiple projects. For example, Perforce Shelving allows users to:
- Pass pending changes to others as part of code review/approval workflows,
- Share work in progress with other team members before committing the changes,
- Test changes in distributed build environments, and
- Easily switch between development tasks in response to changing priorities.
Shelving is also supported in version 2009.2 of the Perforce Visual Client (P4V) and the Perforce Command-line Client (P4).
For more information about Perforce for Eclipse and version 2009.2 of the Perforce Software Configuration Management system, go to www.perforce.com.
