As Bazel 0.22.0 is broken for rules_foreign_cc on Windows, we do not want to run any tests with this version on CI. So we are selecting the list of tests to run according to recorded-in-workspace Bazel version.
But list of tests can not be empty! Instead, have a test that just prints the Bazel version.
* 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)
* Extract cmake and ninja into a toolchain; provide defaults.
In the workspace-level rule registration function, default toolchain
implementations are registered for all platforms, which are calling
the cmake and ninja just by name, assuming they are preinstalled.
Also, the user can pass the custom toolchains in the initialization
function, they will be registered before the defaults.
* Do not run ninja build test for now without nested workspaces support
* Corrections after merge
* Always build ninja from sources for tests, correct initialization order
* Add example of using prebuilt artefact in the native tools toolchain.
* Review comments, have native_tool_toolchain#target, not label
+ improve documentation
* Correct ninja toolchain label
* Correct documentation in native_tools_toolchain.bzl
* Reorganize examples to be in a separate workspace
This will help to define native tools toolchains for examples
* Remove examples-related part from main WORKSPACE file
* Copy .bazelrc to the examples workspace.
* correction for Bazel HEAD compatibility
* Changes to run nested workspace tests from main workspace
* Improve the boost rule including user_options attribute.
Then --with-<library> parameter can be passed to build only that library
Modify examples to demonstrate how to use it.
However, building examples takes too long time, so do not include them into the tests.
* Add crosstool example; does not work with cmake rule yet
the code is taken from Bazel test data (bazel_toolchain_test_data)
* Make crosstool compilation of cmake_external + cc_binary work
To build example, cd examples/cmake_crosstool bazel build //:libhello_test
Changes:
1) Initially suggested in #124: put $EXT_BUILD_ROOT on path, so that relative paths can be resolved by CMake
2) Toolchain tools are references as relative paths, and they themselves refer to external repository with external/ prefix.
This will not work with CMake, as CMake also perform compiler tests and the build is performed in some temp directory.
We need to convert to absolute paths.
I did a trick with checking of $EXT_BUILD_ROOT is defined and then using it as a prefix.
3) I had to change the visibility of the cc-compiler-k8 toolchain to public
4) For CMake crosstool file, CMAKE_C_COMPILER, CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER, CMAKE_AR need to be absolute, so in cases when they are relative and not under external directory, force paths conversion
* move cmake_hello example with static library into a subdirectory
* Fix #139; correct arguments to create_library_to_link
However, the test (which should link the externally built shared library to the calling .c file) fails with assertion that the .so file is in a "wrong" directory, so I am providing it here for additional work [possibly] on Bazel side; and I do not include it into the tests list
* As cc_common.create_library_to_link is now broken for shared libraries,
use the "old" variant cc_common.create_symlink_library_to_link.
As it will later be removed (and create_library_to_link fixed),
it is safe to check for the existence of create_symlink_library_to_link and call it.
Now the test with shared library built by CMake runs, so add it ot the [non-Windows, for now] suite.
* Adapt building shared library with cmake test for mac
* increment version
* Add comment on CMAKE_MACOSX_RPATH
* External C/C++ libraries rules need to pass transitive info
- to have the same interface as cc_library to hide the "implementation details",
so that the information about the install directory and its contents of non-direct external dependencies of external library was available for external build
- this is particularly needed for configure-make rule, where we do not control the way needed libraries are found, so we want to provide the install directory and the -L, -I flags (include and library directories to be searched) consistently,
pointing to the directories under $EXT_BUILD_DEPS
- as a side effect, *.la files that contained links to absolute paths of dependencies (pointing somewhere under ...sandbox/bazel-out/...) now will point to directories under $EXT_BUILD_DEPS and so will be replaced correctly/will not point to paths under the previous sandbox
* External C/C++ libraries rules need to pass transitive info [improve]
By review comments;
- rename to do not collate with internally reserved list, dir, provider
- rename providers to use the same "foreign_cc" prefix and be shorter
- improve providers description
- return back output groups to do not reduce the flexibility
* External C/C++ libraries rules need to pass transitive info [improve]
By review comments:
- some more renames
* External C/C++ libraries rules need to pass transitive info: version++
* Correct review comments
* correct shell utilities: params differ on mac, remove debug print,
+ correct a bug on windows
* Simplify the example, libz is also needed by libgd
* Framework function: simplify code gathering deps, collect_libs public
* Correct configure-make: get all lib files, also built with bazel
and pass them in LDFLAGS; correct the linking paths (add prefix)
* Make maximum line length for shell = 80
* Improve comments to the _InputFiles provider
* implements pcl cmake_external build rule
* Improve example with building PCL (Point Cloud Library):
- build boost library and use it as dependency
- add/correct some properties
* implements pcl cmake_external build rule
* Improve example with building PCL (Point Cloud Library):
- build boost library and use it as dependency
- add/correct some properties
* cmake toolchain files support
* extract cmake script consruction code into a separate file
for further testing
* simplify cmake script creation code
* first four tests for CMake script creation functions
* + move_dict_values_test for CMake script creation functions
* + reverse_descriptor_dict_test for CMake script creation functions
* + toolchain_and_user_values_test for CMake script creation functions
* add create_cmake_script_no_toolchain_file_test for CMake script creation
* do not insert executable linker rule option if it uses cxx compiler
since it would be the same as default
add one more test for command line
* add test for cmake script with toolchain file
* add test for cmake script with toolchain file with user values
* propagate information about target into CMake toolchain file
