Build auditing with clearaudit
Learn about build auditing with clearaudit.
Some organizations, or some developers, might use HCL VersionVault build auditing without using the clearmake program. Others might audit development activities that do not involve makefiles. These users can do their work in an audited shell, which is a standard shell with build auditing enabled.
For example, a technical writer produces formatted manual page files by running a shell script
that invokes nroff(1)
. When the script is executed in a dynamic view in a shell
created by clearaudit, VersionVault creates a single configuration record, recording all the source versions used. All MVFS files
read during execution of the audited shell are listed as inputs to the build. All MVFS files created
become derived objects, associated with the single configuration record.
