Incompatible changes:

  • Blaze no longer generates xcode projects. Use tulsi.bazel.build
    instead.

Important changes:

  • Keyword-only syntax in a function definition is deprecated
    (e.g. def foo(a, *, b) or def foo(a, *b, c)) and will be
    removed in the future.
  • Attempting to build an Android target without setting up
    android_sdk_repository will now produce a helpful error message.
  • Adds a sha256 attribute to git_repository and new_git_repository.
    This can only be used if the remote is a public GitHub
    repository. It forces
    Bazel to download the repository as a tarball, which will often
    be faster and
    more robust than cloning it.
  • Sandboxing is now enabled by default on FreeBSD (via
    processwrapper-sandbox).
  • android_test may use manifest placeholders with 'manifest_merger
    = "android"'.
  • load() statements should be called at the top of .bzl files,
    before any
    other statement. This convention will be enforced in the future.
  • Effectively remove sysroot from CppConfiguration and allow it to
    use select statements.
  • proto_library.strict_proto_deps no longer exists.
  • Flag --explicit_jre_deps is now a noop.
  • The 'legacy' Android manifest merger is deprecated. Please
    upgrade to the 'android' manifest merger, which is the same
    merger used by Gradle.
    https://developer.android.com/studio/build/manifest-merge.html
  • Using $(CC_FLAGS) in a GenRule adds a dependency to the c++
    toolchain
  • add one-version enforcement to android_local_test
  • Skylark support (apple_common.dotted_version(string)) for
    building DottedVersion objects to interface with native apple
    rules
  • CC_FLAGS can be defined using 'cc-flags-make-variable' action_config in
    CROSSTOOL
  • ios_framework native rule has been removed. This rule had been
    essentially broken for several months now; users should be using
    the skylark ios framework rule.
    https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_apple has details.
  • Clean command no longer uses boolean values for --async,
    --expunge, and --expunge_async options.
  • Partially fixes external J2ObjC support.
  • '--aspects' can occur more than once on the command line.
  • --no_ prefix no longer recognized.
  • Use action_config in crosstool for static library archiving,
    remove ar_flag.
  • Added a new flag --sandbox_writable_path, which asks the sandbox
    to
    make an existing directory writable when running actions.
  • bazel test now also computes a default instrumentation filter if
    --collect_code_coverage is enabled
  • n/na
  • In .bzl files, top-level if statements are deprecated and will
    be forbidden
    in the future. Move them in a function body instead (or use a
    conditional
    expression instead: x if condition else y).
  • ios_device and ios_test are deprecated. Please use the new testing
    rules in https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_apple instead.
  • bazel query --output package now displays packages from external
    repository with the format "@reponame//package". Packages in the
    main repository continue to have the format "package".
  • ctx.expand_make_variables is deprecated.
  • Bazel posts links to the CAS to the BEP if remote caching /
    execution is enabled
  • bazel info execution_root returns the corrrect directory name
    for the execution root.
