• getProtectionEntries

  java.util.List<IProtectionEntry> getProtectionEntries​(boolean allUsers,
                                                        java.lang.String hostName,
                                                        java.lang.String userName,
                                                        java.lang.String groupName,
                                                        java.util.List<IFileSpec> fileList)
                                                 throws ConnectionException,
                                                        RequestException,
                                                        AccessException

  Get a list of Perforce protection entries for the passed-in arguments.

  Note that the behavior of this method is unspecified when using clashing options (e.g. having both userName and groupName set non-null). Consult the main Perforce admin documentation for semantics and usage.

  Note that the annotations in the file paths will be dropped. The reason is the Perforce server 'protects' command requires a file list devoid of annotated revision specificity.

  Parameters:

  allUsers - if true, protection lines for all users are displayed.

  hostName - only protection entries that apply to the given host (IP address) are displayed.

  userName - protection lines Perforce user "userName" are displayed.

  groupName - protection lines for Perforce group "groupName" are displayed.

  fileList - if non-null, only those protection entries that apply to the specified files are displayed.

  Returns:

  non-null but possibly empty list of protection entries.

  Throws:

  ConnectionException - if the Perforce server is unreachable or is not connected.

  RequestException - if the Perforce server encounters an error during its processing of the request.

  AccessException - if the Perforce server denies access to the caller.
