Hi,
<P> I use full file's name but in my GNUmakefile I
<BR>use var. which contains full path to dir containing
<BR>source file. When I use dos-natation ( f.e. Y:\aaa )
<BR>cd command has worked but line contains $(var. )
<BR>has not passed. When I use //Y/aaa line contains $(var. )
<BR>has passed but cd command has not worked properly.
<BR>What's happend I do not know ? I am making an attempt
<BR>to clear it.
<P> Regards,
<BR>

<P>Hi,
<BR>I also use Clearcase from a bash shell and do not need to mount the
view drive
<BR>using the mount command because the makefile only refer to elements
with
<BR>relative paths... for example :
<P>INCS=-i ../../aaaa/bbbb/include -i ./include
<P>The same for the compilers, linker, etc ...
<P>I haven't tried to mount the view drive to be honest. But the reason
why I work
<BR>with relative paths only in my makefile is that when you mount a Clearcase
view
<BR>on an NT box, it means - as for any mount point on NT - assigning a
drive letter
<BR>to it (sic). Views are relatively short-lived, and the same view can
be mounted
<BR>on different machines accross a network with different drive letters.
Also,
<BR>different views can "see" the same makefile for parallel development,
and if
<BR>your makefile uses drive letters (absolute paths) only one of them
is going to
<BR>work. A last reason, your Clearcase vob is probably on a Unix server
? If this
<BR>is the case, you may want the capability to run a make from a view
mounted on a
<BR>unix box, where drive letters are irrelevant. Hope this helps.
