Incompatible changes:
- This has the side effect of changing the message on unsuccessful
builds from
toFAILED: Build did NOT complete successfully (0 packages loaded)
ERROR: Build did NOT complete successfully
- Bazel no longer increases the delay between progress updates when
there is no cursor control. - This has the side effect of changing the message on unsuccessful
builds from
toFAILED: Build did NOT complete successfully (0 packages loaded)
ERROR: Build did NOT complete successfully
- the --experimental_async_execution flag is now a no-op.
- --experimental_replay_action_out_err is not a no-op.
cquery --output=files
also outputs source files.--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks
is flipped to true. See
#16729 for details.--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks
is flipped to true. See
#16729 for details.--incompatible_always_include_files_in_data
is flipped to true.
See #16654 for details.- This changes the behavior of Python version in exec/host
configuration. Mitigation is to set Python version on the targets. - When multiple --deleted_packages options are passed on the
command line, they will be concatenated instead of the latest one
taking effect. - This has the side effect of changing the message on unsuccessful
builds from - JSON profile: Use doubles instead of strings for counter series.
- query --output=proto --order_output=deps now returns targets in
topological order (previously there was no ordering). - --experimental_build_transitive_python_runfiles is flipped to
false. See #16303 for details - --incompatible_python_disable_py2 is flipped to true. See #17293
for details. - When remote cache evicts blobs, Bazel will exit with code 39.
--features
only applies to targets built in the target
configuration, and--host_features
is used for the host / exec
configuration (gated behind--incompatible_use_host_features
)--incompatible_strict_conflict_checks
is flipped to true. See
#16729 for details.- Bazel's local CPU resource on Linux is now container aware. Use
--local_cpu_resources
,--loading_phase_threads
or--jobs
to
override. copy_from_rule
is exec_groups is deprecated
(#17668).- --legacy_bazel_java_test is now a no-op
- --legacy_bazel_java_test is now a no-op
- --legacy_bazel_java_test is now a no-op
--experimental_execution_graph_log
no longer exists. Current
users that want local logs need to pass
--experimental_enable_execution_graph_log --experimental_execution_graph_log_path=/some/local/path
.
Current users that want logs uploaded to BEP need to pass
--experimental_enable_execution_graph_log --experimental_stream_log_file_uploads
.- Remove 'darwin' as a CPU value, use 'darwin_x86_64' instead
- Remove high priority workers functionality from blaze.
- Renamed PackageMetrics proto message to PackageLoadMetrics. The
formats should be wire compatible.
New features:
- The
aquery
andcquery
commands now respect the
--query_file
flag just like thequery
command. - --experimental_repository_disable_download is now promoted to
stable and is also available under the name
--repository_disable_download .
Important changes:
- The new path variable
$(rlocationpath ...)
and its plural form
$(rlocationpaths ...)
can be used to expand labels to the paths
accepted by theRlocation
function of runfiles libraries. This
is the preferred way to access data dependencies at runtime and
works on all platforms, even when runfiles are not enabled (e.g.,
on Windows by default). - Starlark
print()
statements are now emitted iff the line of
code is executed. They are no longer replayed on subsequent
invocations unless the Starlark code is re-executed.
Additionally, multiple identicalprint()
statements (same
string from the same line of code, e.g. from a loop) are all
emitted and no longer deduplicated. - Fixes a bug where some compilation flags would not be applied to
a cc_test - removed outdated ctx.host_fragments
- removed outdated ctx.host_configuration
- Now that the host configuration is finished,
genrule
should
prefer the use oftools
and stop usingexec_tools
. - Added a
native.package_relative_label()
function, which
converts a label string to a Label object in the context of the
calling package, in contrast toLabel()
, which does so in the
context of the current .bzl file. Both functions now also accept
relative labels such as:foo
, and are idempotent. - Update Android manifest merger to v30.1.3, and also drop support
for legacy (pre-D8) desugaring. - Adds coverage metric support to android_local_test
- Correctly encode double value positive infinity as "inf" instead
of "+inf" for textprotos. - Add --use_target_platform_for_tests which uses the target
platform for executing tests instead of the execution platform. - Custom C++ rules on Windows calling
cc_common.create_linking_context_from_compilation_outputs should
review whether each target of the rule type should produce a
dynamic library since a condition which blocked their creation
has been moved to the rules from behind the API. - Add flag
--experimental_remote_cache_ttl
and set the default
value to 3 hours. - making --incompatible_use_platforms_repo_for_constraints do
nothing. Using constraints from @bazel_tools//platforms with or
without the flag will throw error with message "Constraints from
@bazel_tools//platforms have been removed. Please use constraints
from @platforms repository embedded in Bazel, or preferably
declare dependency on https://github.com/bazelbuild/platforms" - Fixed an issue where WORKSPACE and WORKSPACE-loaded .bzl files
couldn't see the Bzlmod root module's mappings when Bzlmod is
enabled. - Subsequent settings of --extra_execution_platforms now override
previous settings, instead of adding them to a list. If you
currently set --extra_execution_platforms more than once, please
migrate by passing a list of values to
--extra_execution_platforms instead so that earlier values aren't
overwritten. - @bazel_tools//config:common_settings.bzl has been removed.
Use @bazel_skylib//rules:common_settings.bzl instead. - cc_shared_library is no longer experimental, see
#16709 for details - The flag
--distinct_host_configuration
is removed. It has been
a no-op since Bazel 6.0.0. - Added
native.module_name()
andnative.module_version()
to
allow BUILD macro authors to acquire information about which
Bazel module the current repo is associated with. - Add
--skip_incompatible_explicit_targets
option - Remove 'darwin' as a CPU value, use 'darwin_x86_64' instead
- cc_test can now be configured by using a native.toolchain().
@foo
labels can now be used on the command line as the
top-level target (that is,bazel build @foo
now works).
Double-dot syntax is now forbidden (bazel build ../foo
will no
longer work).- The location of rules that explicitly specify
generator_name
and/orgenerator_function
attributes (typically because they
are incidentally copied fromnative.existing_rule()
) is now the
top-level call in theBUILD
file, which is consistent with
rules that do not explicitly specify these attributes. - Warnings (most notably those associated with the
deprecation
rule attribute) are no longer replayed on subsequent invocations
unless the target in question is re-analyzed. Warnings are purely
informational, so this change has no bearing on the correctness
of the build. Downstream tests that break due to this change
should update their expectations. --experimental_remote_build_event_upload
has been renamed to
--remote_build_event_upload
- [Breaking change] platform, constraint_setting, and
constraint_value can no longer take an applicable_licenses value.
Remediation is to remove the attribute and rely on the package
level default. --experimental_action_cache_store_output_metadata
has been
renamed to--action_cache_store_output_metadata
- Changed the default value for
--remote_build_event_upload
to
minimal
. --experimental_remote_cache_compression
has been renamed to
--remote_cache_compression
- The REPO.bazel and MODULE.bazel files are now also considered
workspace boundary markers. - Added a new
max_compatibility_level
attribute to the
bazel_dep
directive, which allows version selection to upgrade
a dependency up to the specified compatibility level. --experimental_remote_grpc_log
has been renamed to
--remote_grpc_log
--incompatible_remote_build_event_upload_respect_no_cache
is
now a no-op.- json.decode now takes an optional
default
positional parameter;
if this parameter is specified and decoding fails, json.decode
will return
thedefault
value instead of failing Starlark evaluation. - Overrides specified by non-root modules no longer cause an error,
and are silently ignored instead. They were originally treated as
an error to allow for the future possibility of overrides in the
transitive dependency graph working together; but we've deemed
that infeasible (and even if it was, it'd be so complicated and
confusing to users that it would not be a good addition).
