Building software

Rational® ClearCase® supports makefile-based building of software systems and provides a software build environment closely resembling that of the make program. The make program was developed for the UNIX® system and has been ported to other operating systems. You can use files controlled by Rational ClearCase to build software by running native make programs, vendor build utilities, your own company build programs, or the Rational ClearCase build tools: clearmake, clearaudit, and, on Windows® systems, omake. The Rational ClearCase build tools clearmake and omake provide compatibility with other make variants.

The following documentation describes building software:
