We use a few P4Ant tasks to commit code to our perforce depots from within an Ant task. This has been working fine for months, however we recently changed our perforce server to only accept trusted/ssl connections.

As such, our new P4 port now looks like ssl:server_hostname:port and we’re getting an error when running our Ant task: non-numeric Perforce server port specifier: p4java://ssl:server_hostname:port .

From the P4Java api (which P4Ant uses under the hood), it seems that the connection should have looked like: p4javassl://server_hostname:port

Does the P4Ant library support SSL perforce ports? If so, how can I configure it to pass this port properly to p4java.

Regarding P4Ant and SSL, not as downloaded because it is bundled with a pre-2012.1 P4Java version. SSL support was added for P4Java versions 2012.1 and forward as noted in the release notes:

It should work by using (replacing) the p4java.jar with the latest version.
