Compatibility with other make programs

Many make utilities are available in the multiple-architecture, multiple-vendor world of open systems. The DevOps Code ClearCase® clearmake program share features with many of them and has some unique features.

You can adjust the level of compatibility that clearmake has with other make programs:

To achieve absolute compatibility with other make programs, you can actually use them to perform builds. However, builds with a standard make do not provide build auditing, configuration lookup, or sharing of DOs. The MVFS files that the build creates are view-private files, not derived objects. To perform an audited build, you can execute the make program in a clearaudit shell.
