How to view all the filespec opened for a user in perforce

Question

Need some help :)

I am trying to write a script where given a username, I want to know all the files specs which are opened (user can see /check in / check out) for that user.

What I am looking for is something similar to

p4 groups -u <username>

which returns all the groups associated with that user. I want my script to do something similar like

myscript -u <username> 

and it should return me the third level of file specs associated with them. Something like this:

//depot/file/path1/...
//depot/file/path2/...
//depot/file/path-n/...

where folder pathX will have some java or xml files under it.

Is there any perforce command or any other perforce api to do such kind of job ? Please advice.

Answer 1

Are you possibly looking for 'p4 protects -u username'?

Answer 2

p4 opened -u USER will show all files opened for edit by the specified user.
