<p>Rules ForeignCc is designed to help users build projects that are not built by Bazel and also
not fully under their control (ie: large and mature open source software). These rules provide
a mechanism to build these external projects within Bazel's sandbox environment using a variety
of C/C++ build systems to be later consumed by other rules as though they were normal <ahref="https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/be/c-cpp.html">cc</a>
