      We're using the latest Jenkins on Linux to build a project that is stored in ClearCase. Everything builds correctly, but we get some Static Analysis Warnings when we shouldn't.

      When the ClearCase plugin gets the project's files, I can see in the Console Output:

      14:22:36 New:                     vobs/1062_GEN3/configuration/tools/CSU/device_get_logs_info.sh /main/Integration/2 
      14:22:36 New:                     vobs/1062_GEN3/configuration/tools/RIU/device_get_logs_info.sh "symbolic link d6377eb4.fc7711e5.8fd8.00:50:56:bc:54:8e" SYMLINK
      

      So, that's a text file in one directory and a symlink to that file from an adjacent directory.

      We have Scan For Compiler Warnings enabled with Scan Console Log with parser GNU C COmpiler 3 (gcc). The build reports:

      GNU C Compiler Warnings: 1 warning
      Static Analysis Warnings: 1 warning
      

      When I click on the warning links, they both take me to the same place which is the above symlink. Clicking through to the warning message, I get the stack trace below. Note that it seems to be taking the "New:" and a lot of spaces as part of the file name.

      There are other similar symlinks in the project that don't produce any warnings. I've tried destroying and recreating the link. I've tried swapping around the file and the link (i.e. make the link point in the other direction). No joy.

      Copying the source file 'New:                     vobs/1062_GEN3/configuration/tools/RIU/device_get_logs_info.sh "symbolic link d6377eb4.fc7711e5.8fd8.00' from the workspace to the build folder 'bcde0ed7.tmp' on the Jenkins master failed.
