Map source file suffix to language.
Usage
project extensions {-A <extension>|-R <extension>|-L} -P <directory> [-T <C|C++|C/C++|Rust>] [--] [-h]Extended Description
Perforce QAC determines how to process a source file based on the language of the source file, such as C or C++. It does this using the file extension of the source file and the operating system. For each project, a set of file extensions is mapped to a source language. See Setting the File Extensions for Your Sources for the default values.

Examples
Adding a File Extension
This will add the mapping of the source file extension “.cplusplus” to the C++ language for the Perforce QAC project in the current directory.
Displaying All File Extensions
This will display all file extensions for a particular project and language, including the default values which are set when the project is created. These defaults are OS specific.
Removing an Extension
This will remove the mapping of the source file extension “.cplusplus” to the C++ language for the Perforce QAC project in the current directory.
