                               2016.1 Release

Introduction

    P4Search is a dedicated web service for indexing the contents of your
    Perforce Server.  It supports a web-based user inteface that supports
    authentication and integration with Swarm, Commons, and P4Web.  It
    also supports a RESTful API for programmatic use.

    Perforce numbers releases YYYY.R/CCCCCC, for example, 2012.1/40716.
    YYYY is the year; R is the release of that year; CCCCCC is the
    bug fix change level.  Each bug fix in these release notes is
    marked by its change number.  Any build includes (1) all bug fixes
    of all previous releases and (2) all bug fixes of the current
    release up to the bug fix change level.

    Please send all feedback to support@perforce.com.

Minimum Requirements

    * A javax.servlet web container:
      * Jetty 8.1.7
      * Apache Tomcat 7.0.26

    * A JDK version 6, such as OpenJDK or SunJDK

     P4Search uses "p4 keys" to store index progress metadata.  To restrict
     access to sensitive data in the key table, Perforce Server 2013.1
     implements the configurable "dm.keys.hide=1" to prohibit reading the
     keys table from non-admin users.
