do p4 edit for multiple files which contain a matching pattern

Question

I have few files inside a folder. But some of the files contain a particular pattern inside them. I want to grep those files and do p4 edit on those files.

I have used this command on my terminal, but it doesnt work.

grep -rl "pattern" * | p4 edit

Note: I am inside the folder in which all the files reside.

Thanks

Pass the output of grep to xargs

grep -rl "pattern" * | xargs p4 edit
