Omake Utility for SVN in Perl scripts

Question

I have to make some builds for SVN using the Perl scripting, the scripts are originally for Clearcase builds. I have come across an utility "omake". Can any give example of how can I use it for subversion?

The command in the script is system "omake $MakeTarget $Processor" where $MakeTarget is calling another script which makes the maketarget.bat file and $Processor is the processor it should call.

As I mentioned in "What is the svn equivalent to winkin in clearcase?", you cannot "translate" omake, which apply in a very specific ClearCase context (dynamic view with DO -- derived object -- in order to not recompile everything")

Its documentation (omake) includes:

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

In your case, you can simply replace omake with make.
(a bit like for "Is there a way to convert omake build to ms build")
