* 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
