rajeshkumar created the topic: Customize changelist description field with templates
The way most of our customers add additional fields to the change description is with the use of triggers and scripts that add extra fields within the “description” field.
www.perforce.com/perforce/doc.current/ma…cmdref/triggers.html
As an example:
add-fields.py:

*********************

#!/usr/bin/python

import os
import sys
import re
import random

users = [ “cpflaum”,”cpflaum2″ ]
user = sys.argv[2]
user = user.lower()

if user in users:
tempfile = str(random.random())
input = open(sys.argv[1], “r”)
output = open(tempfile, “w”)

for line in input.readlines():
if re.search(““, line):
output.write(line)
output.write(“\n\tMy Additonal field 1=\n”)
output.write(“\n\tMy Additonal field 2=\n”)
else:
output.write(line)

input.close()
output.close()

os.remove(sys.argv[1])
os.rename(tempfile, sys.argv[1])
