Select your Perforce configuration options Dialog Box
Select Tools»Source Code Control»Configure SCC Options to display the Configure SCC Options dialog box. In the Provider pull-down menu, select Perforce SCM then click the Configure button to display the Select your Perforce configuration options dialog box.
Note This dialog box is available only in the LabVIEW Professional Development System.
Use this dialog box to configure Perforce as your source code control tool.
This dialog box includes the following components:
Checking out also locks filePerforce allows multiple developers to check out the same file at the same time, but only one developer can lock the file. This developer is the only one allowed to check in that file. If the file is not locked, whoever submits the file first is successful. Selecting this option always locks the file when you check it out.
Only one client can check out a fileAlthough Perforce allows multiple developers to check out the same file at the same time, it is not recommended with VIs because there is no way to merge binary files. Perforce allows you to check in a binary file only if you have checked out the latest version. Selecting this option prevents you from checking out a file that another user has already checked out.
Files on client are read onlyFiles on your computer should be read only when they are not checked out to you. LabVIEW can treat read only VIs as locked, preventing you from modifying the front panel or block diagram. Perforce uses the term always writeable on client when the files are never read only. Selecting this option makes files read only when they are not checked out to you.
