Baseline: ee0ade3
+ 1e66ccd: RELNOTES: Symlink dirents of directories containing a
file named
"DONT_FOLLOW_SYMLINKS_WHEN_TRAVERSING_THIS_DIRECTORY_VIA
_A_RECURSIVE_TARGET_PATTERN" will *not* be traversed
for transitive target patterns. The motivation here is
to allow directories that intentionally contain wonky
symlinks (e.g. foo/bar -> foo) to opt out of being
consumed by Blaze. For example, given
+ f5773fc: Set the ijar MAX_BUFFER_SIZE to 256 MB
New features:
- java_library now supports the proguard_specs attribute for
passing Proguard configuration up to Android (not Java) binaries.
- http_file can specify "executable" to make the downloaded file
runnable.
- Debian and tar packaging is now supported
(see tools/build_defs/pkg/README.md).
- cpxx_builtin_include_directory specifications allow more
flexibility.
- accept %crosstool_top% in cxx_builtin_include_directory
- android_binary now supports proguard_apply_mapping to re-use a
previously generated proguard mapping.
Important changes:
- remove webstatusserver (--use_webstatusserver).
- Add support for objc textual headers, which will not be compiled
when modules are enabled.
- actoolzip, momczip and swiftstdlibtoolzip have all been made into
bash scripts and have been renamed to actoolwrapper, momcwrapper
and swiftstdlibtoolwrapper respectively. The old versions will be
deleted in a later change.
- [rust] Add rust_bench_test and rust_doc_test rules and improve
usability of rust_test tule.
- Java rules now support a resource_strip_prefix attribute that
allows the removal of path prefixes from Java resources.
- [docker_build] incremental loading is default now.
Specify explicitly //package:target.tar (with the .tar extension)
to obtain the full image.
- --ios_signing_cert_name allows specifying a cert for iOS app
signing
- Go rules for Bazel.
- [jsonnet] Update to Jsonnet 0.8.1.
- [jsonnet] Add vars and code_vars attributes to jsonnet_to_json to
allow passing external variables to Jsonnet via --var and
--code_var.
- Adds --override_workspace_root blaze flag to hand-set
workspace_root and mainGroup in xcodeproj.
- Allow dots in package names.
- When used as a forwarding rule (i.e., has no sources),
android_library
will also forward any exported_plugins in its dependencies.
- Add support for Windows-created zip files with non-posix
permissions.
- [jsonnet] Add jsonnet_to_json_test rule for testing Jsonnet code.
- C++ compile actions run in a sandbox now on systems that support
sandboxed execution.
- The names of the clang compilers in the Android NDK crosstool no
longer reference gcc.
- 420 dpi is now a valid density for andoid_binary.densities.
- Bazel does strict validation of include files now to ensure
correct incremental builds. If you see compilation errors when
building C++ code, please make sure that you explicitly declare
all header files in the srcs or hdrs attribute of your cc_*
targets and that your cc_* targets have correct "deps" on
cc_library's that they use.
- [jsonnet] Fix jsonnet_to_json rule to read code_vars from
code_vars instead of vars.
- Tests, genrules, and Skylark actions without the
"requires-network" tag will no longer be able to access the
network.
- C++ libraries no longer need includes = ["."] (or similar copts)
to include paths relative to a remote repository's root.
- Support exports attribute for android_library
- Symlink dirents of directories containing a file named
"DONT_FOLLOW_SYMLINKS_WHEN_TRAVERSING_THIS_DIRECTORY_VIA_A_RECURSI
VE_TARGET_PATTERN" will *not* be traversed for transitive target
patterns. The motivation here is to allow directories that
intentionally contain wonky symlinks (e.g. foo/bar -> foo) to opt
out of being consumed by Blaze.
