Update README.md because of Bazel 0.22.0 release (#208) - with Bazel 0.22.0, no flags are required to use rules_foreign_cc - improve Bazel versions related information - add link to "rules_foreign_cc take-aways"

## Bazel versions compatibility
Add meson support (#986) * Add meson support * Modify zlib to be detected via pkgconfig in dependent rules * Modify zlib and expat to be linked to shared libs in dependent rules * Add example usage of Meson rule This commit adds the glib library to the "examples" build. glib requires pcre2, so pcre and libgit2 (a dependent of pcre) have been updated/modified * Add example usage of meson_with_requirements macro This commit adds mesa to the "examples" build. This commit also changes the "examples" build to use the hermetic python toolchain provided by rules_foreign_cc. As such, the python toolchain built by rules_foreign_cc is no longer used, as it cannot be used in workspace rules, .e.g pip_parse(). As such, the python2 build has been removed from the examples as python2 is end-of-life. Until Bazel 4.2.0, the built-in android toolchain required Python 2. As such the minimum supported version has been upversioned to 4.2.0. Note that the BAZEL_VC env var was removed from CI as mesa requires MSVC 2019. * Set visibility for each target in foreign_cc_rule_variant * Apply formatting changes * Get meson examples working with bzlmod Note that a newer version of pkgconfig than that installed in ubuntu 20 must be used to build libxau, therefore the built_pkgconfig_toolchain is now registered

Works with Bazel after 4.2.0.
Hermetic pkg config (#979)
2022-11-09 11:54:39 +00:00
The following flags are required in Bazel 4.x but not Bazel 5.x or newer:
- `--experimental_enable_aggregating_middleman=False`
Add tests for checking the minimum supported version to CI (#469)
2021-01-25 19:07:05 +00:00
Note that the rules may be compatible with older versions of Bazel but support may break
in future changes as these older versions are not tested.
Correct headers (#209) * Update README.md because of Bazel 0.22.0 release - with Bazel 0.22.0, no flags are required to use rules_foreign_cc - improve Bazel versions related information - add link to "rules_foreign_cc take-aways" * Correct headers in README
2019-01-29 13:55:29 +00:00
Allow runnable_binary to work on non-external targets (#1100)
2023-10-14 13:24:09 +00:00
Note also that the `runnable_binary` macro requires bazel 5.4.0, for the `rlocationpath` [path
variable](https://bazel.build/reference/be/make-variables)
Remove support for the versions of Bazel before 0.22 (#234) - as 0.23 is already released - to have only one variant of framework code

[release notes](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_foreign_cc/releases) of current or previous releases
Extract shell fragments into a toolchain (#196) * Extract shell fragments into a toolchain Construct script in framework.bzl using special notation for calling shell fragments, defining and referencing environment variables; have the script converted from this special notation into a real script (see README.md notes.) The special notation is used to keep script construction in code still readable. Tools scripts (cmake, ninja) were also converted. * Fix reference to environment variables in examples .. and reference it correctly $$var_name$$ so it is replaced further * Review comments: documentation, explicitly mark functions from toolchain - mark functions from shell toolchain as ##funname##, so that they can not be mixed with usual shell functions * Fix operating system name for windows in toolchain file * Additional env vars for windows * Correct cmake tool build * Do not build ninja on Windows * When run on Windows under msys, find utility from Window could "leak"... into the script. Use heuristics to use /usr/bin/find if it exists. Also, use pwd -W to get Windows-styled paths (for cmake)

Adds toolchain for freebsd. (#794) * Adds toolchain for freebsd. * Address buildifier lint warnings. * Use /usr/bin/env bash * Leave the Linux-specific shebang alone. * Adds note about Bazel CI issue requesting for FreeBSD support and experimental status. * Fix typo. * Clean up trailing whitespace. * Updates bazel-skylib version for tests to pass on FreeBSD. * Update foreign_cc/repositories.bzl Co-authored-by: UebelAndre <github@uebelandre.com>

## Caveats
* FreeBSD support is currently experimental and on a best-effort basis.
Google currently doesn't have a CI test environment for FreeBSD,
but please make your voice heard by upvoting this
