Hi all:

I have just discovered that PowerHouse will not give you
a message if it has to change permissions on a file in order
to replace. But worst  it doesn't give you any error at all.

for example:-
---x--x--x 1 pbateman phapps 26112 Feb 22 11:17 bbr212a.qtc


echo $QTC

/devl/home/pbateman/pvcswork
QTP

>BUILD $QTC/bbr212a

0 ERRORS 1 WARNINGS.

---x--x--x 1 pbateman phapps 26112 Feb 22 11:17 bbr212a.qtc

Observe the creation time has not changed Yet, everything looks good.

rm bbr212a.qtc

bbr212a.qtc: 111 mode ? (y/n) y


Moral of the story:- check creation timestamp.
Other than doing
!rm -f $QTC/bbr212a.qtc before the build

Does anyone else have a workaround?
If an error has occured the rm happens anyway.

Regards,

Peter Bateman
