These classes provide a way to encapsulate source control objects like branches, files, users, etc. I've had a lot of success building tools and scripts based on these classes. Because of the encapsulation, maintenance is much simpler. When perforce changes, only these underlying classes need to be updated.

				<p>
				Take a look at the <a href="http://public.perforce.com/public/perforce/api/java/p4package/examples/index.html">examples</a> and <a href="http://public.perforce.com/public/perforce/api/java/p4package/docs/index.html">API documentation</a>. These should help you get an idea of how to use the package. To build the examples, you must:</p>
					
					<ul>
						<li>Download the latest <a href="http://public.perforce.com/public/perforce/api/java/p4package/dist/p4.jar">JAR</a> file and put it on your CLASSPATH.</li>
						<li>Download all the .java files and the p4.properties file.</li>
						<li>Modify the p4.properties file to fit your environment.</li>
						<li>Modify the example .java files to fit your needs.</li>
						<li>Compile all the .java files using 'javac *.java'</li>
						<li>Execute an example with something like 'java ListUsers'</li>
					</ul>
