# Proof-of-concept example showing how to write a custom C++ toolchain.
#
# Important documentation:
#
# - https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/platforms-intro.html#c
# - https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/tutorial/cc-toolchain-config.html
# - https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/c-cpp.html#cc_toolchain
#
# There are two ways to select C++ toolchains:
#
#  - NEW (USE IF POSSIBLE): with the --platforms flag
#  - LEGACY: with the --crosstool_top and --cpu flags
#
# See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/platforms-intro.html#c for details.
#
# This example demonstrates both approaches.

# Implements platform-based (recommended) toolchain selection.
#
# See https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/platforms-intro.html. The main
# differences are:
#
#  1. --cpu / --crosstool_top are replaced by a platform() definition with
#       much more customizable properties. For example, a platform can specify
#       OS, device type (server, phone, tablet) or custom hardware extensions.
#  2. All languages can support platform-based toolchains. A single --platforms
#       value can choose C++, Python, Scala, and all other toolchains in your
#       build. This is especially useful for multi-language builds.
#  3. Platforms  support features like incompatible target skipping:
#       https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/platforms.html#skipping-incompatible-targets.
