Case sensitivity and multi-platform development

For current releases of the server:

• The Helix Core server on UNIX supports case-sensitive names.
• The Helix Core server on Windows ignores case differences.
• Case is always ignored in keyword-based job searches, regardless of platform.

The following table summarizes these rules.

Case-sensitive	UNIX server	Windows server
Pathnames and filenames	Yes	No
Database entities (workspaces, labels, and so on.)	Yes	No
Job search keywords	No	No

To find out what platform your Helix Core server runs on, use p4 info.
