How to use p4api.net to get pending changelist number for given submitted changelist

Changelist during submission might be re-enumerated. I need to get old changelist number for already submitted changelist. I can do that using p4:

p4 -Ztag -F%oldChange% describe 1234

I want to do that using p4api.net but I cannot find the way. Do you know if there is such option?

Solution

  • It doesn't appear to be part of the P4.Changelist interface, but you should be able to just run the describe command with tagged output and get the oldChange field.

    Look at P4CommandResult.TaggedOutput, P4Command, and Connection.
