If one adds a modified CCPP metadata file to SourceMods/src.cam, that modified file will simply not be seen by the build system. This is true even for an initial (post-clean) build, or if the relevant source code file is in SourceMods/src.cam as well.
The build system (including the build cache) should be able to recognize that a modified metadata file is in SourceMods, and then use that file accordingly when generating the CCPP caps.
What are the steps to reproduce the bug?
Create any case, add a metadata file with a modified standard name to SourceMods/src.cam, run preview_namelists, and then see if the associated CCPP-generated cap files in bld/atm/obj/ccpp contain the modification you added.
What CAM-SIMA hash were you using?
7d299b6
What machine were you running CAM-SIMA on?
CISL machine (e.g. cheyenne)
What compiler were you using?
GNU
Path to a case directory, if applicable
No response
Will you be addressing this bug yourself?
Any Software Engineer can do this
Extra info
To get around this particular issue, one needs to modify the metadata file of interest directly in the local copy of CAM-SIMA, clean the build, and then re-build the model from scratch.
