Error description
Re-introduction of APAR APAR PK32565 The config record lists wrong build script, as '%set' is not being interpreted correctly when preceding a macro. This can be demonstrated with the following makefile (file name test.mak): b.txt : a.txt %if 'A' == 'A' %set MACRO_1=A %else %set MACRO_1=B %endif copy /Y $(.SOURCE) $(.TARGET) echo some text > sibling_do_$(MACRO_1).txt Running the command: omake -f test.mak, produces the output: %set MACRO_1=A copy /Y a.txt b.txt 1 file(s) copied. echo some text > sibling_do_A.txt After that, the current directory contains: 2006-10-04 09:29 AM 0 a.txt 2006-10-04 09:29 AM 0 b.txt 2006-10-04 09:36 AM 12 sibling_DO_A.txt 2006-10-04 09:36 AM 171 test.mak 2006-10-04 09:36 AM 1,820 .cmake.state The config record of Derived Object b.txt contains: Derived object: \system\...\src\b.txt@@04-Oct.09:29.2147484409 Target b.txt built by xxx Host 'xxx' running NT 5.1 (i586) Reference Time 04-Oct-06.09:36:25, this audit started ...

Local fix
Problem summary
conditional directives are evaluated in read time if they start from left most column, else in run time. Customer written makefile, where conditional directive didnt start from left most column, and expected them to evaluated in read time. This was fixed in RATLC01000230, which caused the conditionals being evaluted twice.
Problem conclusion
A fix is available in ClearCase versions 7.0.0.8 and 7.0.1.7
Temporary fix
