* 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
* Make cc_toolchain_utils.bzl more reusable
By using getattr, the helper functions in this file can be reused in
rules that do not define all of the framework attributes, e.g. bootstrap
rules.
* Bootstrap make reproducibly on Linux and macOS
Uses the Bazel C/C++ toolchain to bootstrap make and ensure that the
resulting binary contains no absolute and thus non-hermetic paths.
Building make reproducibly helps with remote caching and removes the
dependency on a C compiler installed on the host.
Since 466c32c70f any changes you made
while testing rules_foreign_cc, or changes to those rules, would not
invalidate the CMakeCache.txt and lead to build issues. It wasn't the
case before that because new temp dirs were used each time.
* Refactor _env_prelude method to be public (589)
In an upcoming commit, the method will be used to set the PATH,
INCLUDE and LIB environment variables in Windows when building GNU
Make from source
* Build make from source on Windows (#589)
The built_tools_framework.bzl file was modified so that the PATH,
INCLUDE and LIB environment variables are set from the C++ toolchain,
e.g. MSVC.
The PATH environment variable is prepended with the path to the
toolchain's linker, otherwise the MSYS2 linker would be used instead
of MSVC (as they are both named link.exe).
* Add config for building with spawn_strategy=standalone
* Always build RELEASE configuration to avoid having to select for the output due to change in artifact names for debug builds
* Fix for copy_contents_to_dir and symlink_contents_to_dir on macOS as per #512
* Update name of test files
* Added a new `platform_info` target to the foreign_cc framework
* Update foreign_cc/private/framework/platform.bzl
