    Description

      When passing in macros through the command line of jom, they are always converted to all uppercase. nmake defines them twice, once all uppercase and once with the original case.

       

      Makefile:

      FooBar=2
!Message FooBar:$(FooBar) FOOBAR:$(FOOBAR)

      nmake FooBar=5

      FooBar:5 FOOBAR:5

      jom FooBar=5

      FooBar:2 FOOBAR:5

      And just for clarification

      nmake FOOBAR=5

      FooBar:2 FOOBAR:5

      jom FOOBAR=5

      FooBar:2 FOOBAR:5
