Is clearmake the command that comes along with clearcase
which tries to share object files built in the same view by different user?

If it is this clearmake your are talking about,
as far as I know it does process "standard" makefiles and does
a special jobs on its own with clearcase to run an economy build.

So it "should" work with cmake generated makefiles.

Now I do not fully understand how Visual Studio and clearmake works
together on MS Windows.

We use CMake to generated Makefile on unix
and to generated Visual Studio project file on windows
and it works just fine for us.

The only difference I see is that  now our Makefiles and/or Visual Studio
project file is not versioned and each user has its own CMake
generated file.
