Is there a way to convert omake build to ms build

问题

I would like to convert omake projects (clearcase) to msbuild (TFS). Please let me know whether any tool is available for the conversion. I would appricate if you have give me an example

回答1:

omake project is a Rational® ClearCase® utility to build, maintain, update, and regenerate groups of programs. It includes many of the configuration management facilities provided by the clearmake utility.

omake is intended for use in dynamic views. You can use omake in a snapshot view, but none of the features that distinguish it from ordinary make programs (build avoidance, build auditing, derived object sharing, and so on) works in snapshot views

I don't think TFS would offer workspaces running like a dynamic view, or orffering similar clearmake-like features like DO and winkins.

So there isn't any conversion possible to my knowledge: those projects becomes simple make/Makefile projects once migrated in their new TFS referential.

Regarding the more general issue of converting a Makefile to a .sln file, that old question mentioned the Makefile Project Wizard, also mentioned in this thread and in this page:

If you have a project that you build from the command line with a makefile, then the Visual Studio development environment will not recognize your project.
To open and build your project using Visual Studio, first create an empty project containing the appropriate build settings using the Makefile Project Wizard.
You can then use this project to build your project from the Visual Studio development environment.
