| 19 | +Incompatible changes: |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | + - this incompatible change breaks old instances of http_archive |
| 22 | + that specified netrc as an absolute path. It is unlikely there |
| 23 | + are many instances in the wild since the path would refer to a |
| 24 | + netrc file inside the external repository by absolute path. |
| 25 | + Migration should be straightforward. |
| 26 | + - genrule switched to use exec transition instead of host. This can |
| 27 | + break targets with hardcoded output paths. To avoid using |
| 28 | + hardcoded paths use make variables, see |
| 29 | + https://docs.bazel.build/versions/4.2.2/be/make-variables.html#pre |
| 30 | + defined_label_variables |
| 31 | + - this incompatible change breaks old instances of http_archive |
| 32 | + that specified netrc as an absolute path. It is unlikely there |
| 33 | + are many instances in the wild since... |
| 34 | + - Error Prone now checks for unused return values of additional |
| 35 | + methods on `java.lang.Object`, which can be disabled using |
| 36 | + `--javacopts=-Xep:ReturnValueIgnored:OFF` |
| 37 | + - Error Prone now checks for unused return values of additional |
| 38 | + methods on `java.lang.Object`, which can be disabled using |
| 39 | + `--javacopts=-Xep:ReturnValueIgnored:OFF` |
| 40 | + - The --incompatible_existing_rules_immutable_view flag has been |
| 41 | + flipped to true. See |
| 42 | + https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/13907 for |
| 43 | + migration notes. |
| 44 | + - Split up the C++ archive from the C++ link action and set |
| 45 | + `CppArchive` as mnemonic. |
| 46 | + - workspace(managed_directories=) is not available anymore. |
| 47 | + - --legacy_important_outputs now has a default of false. |
| 48 | + - --legacy_important_outputs default reverted to true. |
| 49 | + - objc_library now requires CcInfo in its deps. If this breaks |
| 50 | + you, add empty CcInfo() to your rule. |
| 51 | + - Flag --experimental_local_memory_estimate removed. |
| 52 | + - Added a new flag |
| 53 | + --incompatible_unambiguous_label_stringification, which causes |
| 54 | + labels in the main repo to stringify into unambiguous forms |
| 55 | + starting with an @. See |
| 56 | + https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/15916 for more |
| 57 | + information. |
| 58 | + - analysis_test moved into testing.analysis_test |
| 59 | + - Flip incompatible_enable_cc_toolchain_resolution |
| 60 | + (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7260) |
| 61 | + - (Rollback) Flip incompatible_enable_cc_toolchain_resolution |
| 62 | + (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7260) |
| 63 | + - name parameter is removed from rule call |
| 64 | + (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/16301) |
| 65 | + - name parameter is removed from rule call |
| 66 | + (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/16301) |
| 67 | + - name parameter is removed from rule call |
| 68 | + (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/16301) |
| 69 | + - --incompatible_remote_downloader_send_all_headers is flipped to |
| 70 | + true. See #16356 for details. |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +Important changes: |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | + - Deprecate --incompatible_applicable_licenses flag, in preparation |
| 75 | + for removal in Bazel 6.x. |
| 76 | + - Treat py_*.srcs_version="PY2" the same as "PY2ONLY". |
| 77 | + - The Build Event Protocol now contains file digests and sizes |
| 78 | + along with the file name and URI. |
| 79 | + - Refactor system suspend event handling. |
| 80 | + - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value() |
| 81 | + - Allow \a \b \f \v escape sequences in Starlark. |
| 82 | + - Match remote and local xcode version by most granular version. |
| 83 | + - Adds `--experimental_worker_multiplex_sandboxing` flag that |
| 84 | + controls whether to sandbox multiplex workers that support it. |
| 85 | + - provider() has a new parameter: init, a callback for performing |
| 86 | + pre-processing and validation of field values. Iff this parameter |
| 87 | + is set, |
| 88 | + provider() returns a tuple of 2 elements: the usual provider |
| 89 | + symbol (which, |
| 90 | + when called, invokes init) and a raw constructor (which bypasses |
| 91 | + init). |
| 92 | + - Tests that fail to create or complete their |
| 93 | + `TestAttemptContinuation` by |
| 94 | + throwing an `ExecException` will report an `INCOMPLETE` status. |
| 95 | + Previously, Bazel |
| 96 | + would fail to report any status for the test attempt. |
| 97 | + - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes |
| 98 | + in coverage mode without actually running the test. |
| 99 | + - Include more information about configurations in cquery proto |
| 100 | + formatted output. This deprecates the configuration field of |
| 101 | + AnalysisProtosV2.ConfiguredTarget, and adds a new field, |
| 102 | + configuration_id, to |
| 103 | + be used instead. |
| 104 | + - experimental cc_library.implementation_deps inverted to |
| 105 | + interface_deps |
| 106 | + - In aquery and cquery proto output, indicate if a configuration is |
| 107 | + a |
| 108 | + tool or non-tool configuration. |
| 109 | + - Include complete configurations in cquery proto output. |
| 110 | + - experimental cc_library.implementation_deps inverted to |
| 111 | + interface_deps |
| 112 | + - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible. |
| 113 | + - Add some documentation about how configuration information is |
| 114 | + conveyed in cquery proto output. |
| 115 | + - Introduces experimental static library linking API under |
| 116 | + apple_common.link_multi_arch_static_library |
| 117 | + - Further deprecation and removal of pkg_tar. Stop supporting |
| 118 | + legacy use of 'files' attribute, where it could be a list of |
| 119 | + labels instead of a map of paths to labels. |
| 120 | + - Removed --incompatible_no_build_defs_pkg flag. It never fulfilled |
| 121 | + its purpose because --all_incompatible_changes would never set |
| 122 | + it. The last rule it gated (pkg_tar) is scheduled to be removed |
| 123 | + in Bazel 6.x. |
| 124 | + - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose |
| 125 | + output_generator label. |
| 126 | + - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage |
| 127 | + reports (#14969). |
| 128 | + - android_sdk_repository read $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in addition to |
| 129 | + $ANDROID_HOME. |
| 130 | + - The default dexer is now d8. dx can be optionally enabled using: |
| 131 | + --define=android_dexmerger_tool=dx_dexmerger \ |
| 132 | + --define=android_incremental_dexing_tool=dx_dexbuilder \ |
| 133 | + --define=android_standalone_dexing_tool=dx_compat_dx \ |
| 134 | + --use_workers_with_dexbuilder |
| 135 | + - Packaging support for deploy JAR embedded JDK files (hermetic |
| 136 | + Java). |
| 137 | + - Don't stamp cc_common.link actions for tool dependencies. |
| 138 | + - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment |
| 139 | + parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment |
| 140 | + variables |
| 141 | + whose values should be inherited from the shell environment. |
| 142 | + - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with |
| 143 | + the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag. |
| 144 | + - Allow specialization to work with constraint_values. |
| 145 | + - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK. |
| 146 | + - Make ijar / java_import preserve classes with `@kotlin.Metadata` |
| 147 | + annotations |
| 148 | + - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now |
| 149 | + link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host |
| 150 | + platform (rather than always linking statically when Windows is |
| 151 | + the _host_). |
| 152 | + - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now |
| 153 | + link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host |
| 154 | + platform (rather than always linking statically when Windows is |
| 155 | + the _host_). |
| 156 | + - Add devtools/build/lib/worker:work_request_handlers to the remote |
| 157 | + android tools release package. This will be transitively packaged |
| 158 | + into all_android_tools. |
| 159 | + - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK. |
| 160 | + - android_sdk_repository read $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in addition to |
| 161 | + $ANDROID_HOME. |
| 162 | + - Advance android_tools_pkg version to 0.24.0. |
| 163 | + - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now |
| 164 | + link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host |
| 165 | + platform (rather |
| 166 | + than always linking statically when Windows is the _host_). |
| 167 | + - Bazel uses the D8 jar from Maven instead of the SDK. |
| 168 | + - "blaze config" now only reports info from the last build. To |
| 169 | + compare configurations across multiple builds, redirect "blaze |
| 170 | + config" output to a file and run your favorite diff tool. |
| 171 | + - The --incompatible_override_toolchain_transition flag is now |
| 172 | + always set, and will be removed in the future. Thus, |
| 173 | + --noincompatible_override_toolchain_transition has no effect, and |
| 174 | + the value of the incompatible_use_toolchain_transition parameter |
| 175 | + in aspect() and rule() builtins is ignored. |
| 176 | + - Switch cc_test implementation to Starlark. Note: cc_test will now |
| 177 | + link statically when _targeting_ Windows regardless of host |
| 178 | + platform (rather |
| 179 | + than always linking statically when Windows is the _host_). |
| 180 | + - Toolchain types may now be optional, in addition to mandatory. |
| 181 | + See https://bazel.build/docs/toolchains#optional-toolchains for |
| 182 | + further details. |
| 183 | + - Add six to deps of has_services=1 py_proto_librarys. |
| 184 | + - pkg_tar(symlinks) has been removed. Users needing that feature |
| 185 | + should |
| 186 | + migrate to @rules_pkg. |
| 187 | + - Aspects can now define and use exec groups using the same API as |
| 188 | + rules. |
| 189 | + - Removed the obsolete --incompatible_applicable_licenses flag. The |
| 190 | + feature is permanently enabled. |
| 191 | + - embedded_tools packages R8 desugarer again |
| 192 | + - Bazel now selects sh path based on execution platform instead of |
| 193 | + host platform, making it possible to execute sh actions in |
| 194 | + multiplatform builds. --shell_executable now only applies to |
| 195 | + actions configured for host. |
| 196 | + - labels in genquery.scope are no longer configured. |
| 197 | + - When Bzlmod is enabled, all Bzlmod-generated repos will have an |
| 198 | + extra '@' prepended to their names. This effectively enables the |
| 199 | + canonical label literal syntax for Bzlmod-generated repos |
| 200 | + (`@@canonicalRepoName//pkg:target`; see |
| 201 | + https://docs.google.com/document/d/1N81qfCa8oskCk5LqTW-LNthy6EBrDo |
| 202 | + t7bdUsjz6JFC4/edit?usp=sharing). |
| 203 | + - Exposed `CcSharedLibraryInfo` to Starlark builtins. |
| 204 | + - Enable --use_top_level_targets_for_symlinks by default. |
| 205 | + - Singlejar accepts runtime Created-By field |
| 206 | + - --noincompatible_disable_managed_directories, and with that, |
| 207 | + workspace(managed_directories=) is not supported anymore. |
| 208 | + - Bazel supports D8 desugaring, albeit without persistent workers |
| 209 | + - Remove mtime options from pkg_tar. Users should migrate to |
| 210 | + @rules_pkg. |
| 211 | + - Test for experimental multiplexed persistent resource processor. |
| 212 | + - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to |
| 213 | + the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the |
| 214 | + {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the |
| 215 | + module() directive. |
| 216 | + - The legacy pkg_tar no longer supports the ability to untar and |
| 217 | + repackage an input tar file (`deps` attribute). Users needed that |
| 218 | + capability must switch to github.com/bazelbuild/rules_pkg. |
| 219 | + - `cquery`'s new output mode |
| 220 | + [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output) |
| 221 | + lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It |
| 222 | + takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account. |
| 223 | + - Change singlejar metadata to report Created-By Bazel |
| 224 | + - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper. |
| 225 | + - Revert interface_deps back to implementation_deps after problem |
| 226 | + reported in. Use `buildozer 'rename deps implementation_deps' |
| 227 | + //...:%cc_library; buildozer 'rename interface_deps deps' |
| 228 | + //...:%cc_library` |
| 229 | + - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build |
| 230 | + scenario. |
| 231 | + - D8 is the default desugarer |
| 232 | + - Migrate main_dex_list_creator to D8 (DX deprecation) |
| 233 | + - --experimental_enable_bzlmod has been renamed --enable_bzlmod, |
| 234 | + and still defaults to false. |
| 235 | + - selects() no longer produce irrelevant duplicate label checks |
| 236 | + - Adds a dexer output cache to CompatDexBuilder to improve build |
| 237 | + speed. |
| 238 | + - Improved error messages when analyzing inline bzl code |
| 239 | + - Improved error messages when analyzing inline bzl code |
| 240 | + - The `@bazel_tools//tools/cpp:compiler` flag now has the value |
| 241 | + `gcc` if the configured compiler is detected to be gcc rather |
| 242 | + than the generic value `compiler`. A branch for `gcc` may have to |
| 243 | + be added to `select` statements that do not have a default case |
| 244 | + that handles gcc appropriately. |
| 245 | + - The `get_child` method of `path` now accepts an arbitrary |
| 246 | + number of relative path strings as positional arguments. |
| 247 | + - SourceManifestAction supports `Action.content` |
| 248 | + - Add --incompatible_build_transitive_python_runfiles alias. See |
| 249 | + #16303 |
| 250 | + - The @bazel_tools//tools/cpp:compiler flag now has the value |
| 251 | + `clang` for the auto-configured Xcode toolchain rather than the |
| 252 | + generic value compiler. A branch for `clang` may have to be added |
| 253 | + to select statements that do not have a default case that handles |
| 254 | + this toolchain appropriately. |
| 255 | + - added additional debug message to warn of skipped toolchains |
| 256 | + during resolution |
| 257 | + - The deprecated --remote_allow_symlink_upload flag has been |
| 258 | + removed. Symlinks in local action outputs are always permitted, |
| 259 | + even with remote caching. Whether they're uploaded as symlinks or |
| 260 | + as the files/directories they point to is still determined by the |
| 261 | + --incompatible_remote_symlinks flag. |
| 262 | + - Added `struct`, `json`, `proto`, and `depset` to the starlark |
| 263 | + environment of Bazel's cquery (--output=starlark) command |
| 264 | + - Added three `package_group`-related flags: |
| 265 | + `--incompatible_package_group_includes_double_slash` (#16391), |
| 266 | + `--incompatible_package_group_has_public_syntax` (#16355), and |
| 267 | + `--incompatible_fix_package_group_reporoot_syntax` (#16323). With |
| 268 | + these flags, `package_group` can now easily specify "all |
| 269 | + packages", "no packages", and "all packages in the current repo". |
