Baseline: ac88041 Cherry picks: + 9bc3b20: Fix the "nojava" platform and enable full presubmit checks for the various JDK platforms now that we have enough GCE resources. + 54c2572: Add openjdk_linux_archive java_toolchain for nojava platform. + 20bfdc6: Automated rollback of commit 19a401c. + 914b4ce: Windows: Fix Precondition check for addDynamicInputLinkOptions + 83d406b: Windows, test-setup.sh: Setting RUNFILES_MANIFEST_FILE only when it exists. + e025726: Update turbine + 5f312dd: Fix event id for action_completed BEP events The Bazel team is happy to announce a new version of Bazel, [Bazel 0.19](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/releases/tag/0.19.0). This document lists the major changes since Bazel 0.18. General changes --------------- * The `--incompatible_expand_directories` flag will automatically expand directories in command lines. Design doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11agWFiOUiz2htBLj6swPTob5z78TrCxm8DQE4uJLOwM * The `--loading_phase_threads` flag now defaults to `auto` (not 200, as was previously the case), which at the moment corresponds to the number of CPUs. This is appropriate for most users. However, if your sources reside on a network file system, increasing this value may yield better analysis-time performance when disk caches are cold. Android ------- * Fixed missing debug symbols when building native code with `--compilation_mode=dbg` that target Android ARM architectures by adding the `-g` flag. C++ --- * Added `--incompatible_disable_legacy_flags_cc_toolchain_api` to deprecate legacy `cc_toolchain` Starlark API for legacy CROSSTOOL fields. Tracking issue is #6434. Migration docs are on the bazel website. * Runfiles in cc_test: the C++ runfiles library (`@bazel_tools//tools/cpp/runfiles`) can now create Runfiles objects for tests. See `//tools/cpp/runfiles/runfiles_src.h` (in the Bazel source tree) for documentation. * :cc_binary link action no longer hardcodes `-static-libgcc` for toolchains that support embedded runtimes (guarded by `--experimental_dont_emit_static_libgcc` temporarily). * The flag `--experimental_enable_cc_configuration_make_variables` is removed, use `--incompatible_disable_cc_configuration_make_variables` instead. Java ---- * If the `--javabase` flag is unset, Bazel locates a JDK using the `JAVA_HOME` environment variable and searching the PATH. If no JDK is found `--javabase` will be empty, and builds targeting Java will not be supported. Previously Bazel would fall back to using the embedded JDK as a `--javabase`, but this is no longer default behaviour. A JDK should be explicitly installed instead to enable Java development. Code Coverage ------------- * LcovMerger was renamed to CoverageOutputGenerator. * Faster coverage collection for gcc compiled C++ code can now be tested by enabling it with `--experimental_cc_coverage`. Other Changes ------------- * Add `--apple_compiler` and `--apple_grte_top options`. These provide the equivalent of --compiler / --grte_top for the toolchain configured in --apple_crosstool_top. * There is now a `same_pkg_direct_rdeps` query function. See the query documentation for more details. * Propagating remote errors to the user even if `--verbose_failures=false` is set. * Add number of configured targets to analysis phase status output. * Bazel will now check stderr instead of stdout to decide if it is outputting to a terminal. `--isatty` is deprecated, use `--is_stderr_atty` instead. Future Changes -------------- * None of the C++ related incompatible flags mentioned in the 0.18 release were flipped, they will be flipped in the next release (0.20). We have created tracking issues for all the relevant incompatible flags: * [`--incompatible_disable_late_bound_option_defaults`](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/skylark/backward-compatibility.html#disable-late-bound-option-defaults): #6384 * [`--incompatible_disable_depset_in_cc_user_flags`](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/skylark/backward-compatibility.html#disable-depsets-in-c-toolchain-api-in-user-flags): #6383 * [`--incompatible_disable_cc_toolchain_label_from_crosstool_proto`](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/skylark/backward-compatibility.html#disallow-using-crosstool-to-select-the-cc_toolchain-label): #6382 * [`--incompatible_disable_cc_configuration_make_variables`](#6381): #6381 * [`--incompatible_disable_legacy_cpp_toolchain_skylark_api`](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/skylark/backward-compatibility.html#disable-legacy-c-configuration-api): #6380 * [`incompatible_disable_legacy_flags_cc_toolchain_api`](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/skylark/backward-compatibility.html#disable-legacy-c-toolchain-api): #6434 * In the 0.20 release the flags [`--incompatible_remove_native_git_repository`](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/skylark/backward-compatibility.html#remove-native-git-repository) and [`--incompatible_remove_native_http_archive`](https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/skylark/backward-compatibility.html#remove-native-http-archive) will be turned on.
