To use omake from Visual C++

About this task

Follow this procedure to use omake from Visual C++:

Procedure

  1. Set up the HCL VersionVault Add-In for Visual C++ (more information is available on setting up the add-in for Visual C++).
  2. Configure omake for Visual C++ (more information is available on configuring omake for Visual C++).
  3. Click VersionVault Build on the VersionVault Add-In toolbar.
    Attention: To build a project, always use the VersionVault Build toolbar button, not the omake command on the Tools menu. The VersionVault Build toolbar button creates the appropriate environment and then starts the HCL VersionVault omake tool that you have defined to build your project. The omake command on the Tools menu is necessary for the VersionVault Build toolbar button to work. However, carrying out the command starts omake without first creating the appropriate environment. As a result, you may build the project with an incorrect configuration.
