0.2.0

Release 0.2.0 (2016-02-18)

Baseline: 9e100ac

Incompatible changes:

• ObjC compile actions for J2ObjC-translated code now only has
  access to headers from the java deps of the associated original
  java rule.
  These compile actions no longer takes the compiler options
  specified in "copts" attribute on objc_binary/ios_test rules.
  J2ObjC dead code removal (enabled through flag
  "--j2objc_dead_code_removal") now happens after ObjC
  compilation.
• maven_jar no longer supports separate artifact_id, group_id, and
  verison fields. This information should be provided in the
  artifact field,
  instead.

New features:

• Better support for toolchains that don't have a dynamic linker.
• build_file_content attribute added to new_git_repository,
  new_http_archive, and new_local_repository.
• Add support for .tar.bz2 archives to http_archive rules.

Important changes:

• The --skyframe flag is no longer available for the build command.
• The --artifacts flag was removed from the dump command.
• The sha256 attribute is now optional (although recommended!) for
  remote repository rules.
• Add instrumented file provider support to Skylark rules.
• Add imports attribute to native Python rules.
• Allow overriding -gsplit-dwarf from copts.
• Improved sandbox performance on XFS filesystems.

0.1.5

Release 0.1.5 (2016-02-05)

Baseline: 3a95f35

• 8378cd8: Rollback of commit
  a9b8457.

Incompatible changes:

• Set stamping to false by default (i.e., --nostamp)
• Removed --objc_dump_syms_binary.
• Removes --objc_gcov_binary flag.
• Remove JAVAC "Make" variable
• The startup flag --blaze_cpu is removed,
• Repository rules must use names that are valid workspace names.

New features:

• A new java test runner that support XML output and test filtering
  is supported. It can be used by specifying --nolegacy_bazel_java_test
  or by specifying the test_class attribute on a java_test.
• Skylark aspects can now specify configuration fragment
  dependencies with fragments and host_fragments like rules can.

Important changes:

• Support for downloading remote resources through proxies by
  setting HTTP_PROXY (or HTTPS_PROXY).
• Timestamps within Android apks are removed to make apks
  deterministic.
• Support aggregation over existing rules in Skylark extensions
  through native.rules and native.rule.
• A tools/bazel script in the workspace will be executed
  as an opportunity to use a fixed version of Bazel (not
  implemented for the homebrew recipe yet).
• --noimplicit_deps and --nohost_deps work correctly for Aspect
  attributes.
• JDK-related targets are now available via @local_jdk (instead of
  @local-jdk).
• j2objc tools can now be accessed via @bazel_j2objc, not
  @bazel-j2objc.
• [rust] Update to Rust 1.6
• Add support for .tar.xz archives to http_archive rules.
• Make C++ modules compatible with tools using
  --compilation_prerequisites_only
• [d] Update to DMD 2.070.0

0.1.4

Release 0.1.4 (2016-01-15)

Baseline: e933d5e

• 3d796fe: Rollback of commit
  ac6ed79.
• 7a02e5d: Fix installer under OS X
• 848740c: Fix bazel version for debian package
• 7751d43: Add a method for getting the root of a rule workspace
  to the Label method

Important changes:

• add loadfiles() query operator, to find skylark files loaded by
  targets.
• Added ability to declare and use aspects in Skylark.
• Skylark load statements may now reference .bzl files via build
  labels, in addition to paths. In particular, such labels can be
  used to reference Skylark files in external repositories; e.g.,
  load("@my_external_repo//some_pkg:some_file.bzl", ...).
  Path-based loads are now deprecated and may be disabled in the
  future. Caveats: Skylark files currently do not respect package
  visibility; i.e., all Skylark files are effectively public. Also,
  loads may not reference the special //external package.
• Relative paths can now be used for 'path' with
  new_local_repository and local_repository.

0.1.3

Release 0.1.3 (2016-01-07)

Baseline: 23ad8f6

• de2183d: Only depend on the WORKSPACE file for external files
  that are under the external/ directory, i.e. were
  created by Bazel.
• f8f855c: Rollback of commit
  12bad3a.
• f627562: Stop parsing the WORKSPACE file when a parse error is
  detected
• 763f139: Add -fno-canonical-system-headers to CROSSTOOL files so
  that gcc doesn't resolve symlinks in .d files, which
  would confuse Blaze.
• b95995b: Use openjdk7 as dependency for debian package of jdk7
  flavor

New features:

• Skylark macros are now enabled in WORKSPACE file.
• .bazelrc allows workspace-relative imports as "import
  %workspace%/path/to/rcfile"
• Evaluate the query expression in a file by passing
  --query_file= to query

Important changes:

• Remove obsolete --objc_per_proto_includes flag.
• iOS apps and extensions now have launch_storyboard
• Passing multiple JVM options via a single --host_jvm_args flag is
  now deprecated. Pass each JVM option behind its own
  --host_jvm_args flag.
• Resources defined locally on an android_library rule will respect
  the neverlink attribute.
• Update Rust to 1.4
• Fix resource handling for exported android_library rules
• Files in external repositories are now treated as mutable, which
  will make the correctness guarantees of using external
  repositories stronger (existent), but may cause performance
  penalties.

0.1.2

Release 0.1.2 (2015-11-20)

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.

Release 0.1.1 (2015-10-05)

Baseline: 22616ae

• 1ef338f: Rollback of "Propagates cc_library linkopts attribute
  to dependent objc_libraries.": breaks certain
  objc_binary build targets.
• 5fb1073: Reintroduce an inconsistency check (albeit, in a weaker
  form) removed by a previous change that was trying to
  optimize away a filesystem call.
• 6d00468: Add IdlClass to the embedded default android tools
  repository and rearrange BuildJar's JarHelper so that
  it too can be embedded.
• a519903: Fixes Android integration tests by wiring up idlclass
  rules in integration environment.

Incompatible changes:

• Bazel requires JDK 8 to run.
• Attribute "copts" is removed from j2objc_library.

New features:

• a cc_binary rule may list '.s' and '.asm' files in the srcs
• Support for build with libsass.
• labels in "linkopts" may match any label in either "deps" or
  "srcs" to be considered valid.
• Maven servers that require username & password authentication are
  now supported (see maven_server documentation).

Important changes:

• Support empty plist files

  not be overwritten if it already contains a tag for each
  of the densities specified on the android_binary rule.
• Add Jsonnet rules to Bazel
• Remove deprecated xcode_options flag.
• Workspace names are now restricted to being in their base
  directory
  (that is, the names cannot contain up-level references or /./).
• j2objc_library on Bazel now transpiles transitive proto_library
  dependencies. (Note that java_* rules in Bazel do not yet support
  protos; currently they ignore proto dependencies.)
• new_http_archive can specify a root directory.
• Adds support for dylibs on devices for Xcode 7.
• [d] d_docs rules now depend on a d_binary, a d_library or
  d_source_library.
• [docker] docker_build now set the permission to 0555 to files
  added to the layer, use mode = "0644" to use the legacy behavior.
• android_binary now has a main_dex_proguard_specs attribute to
  specify which classes should be in the main dex.
• [rust] Add rust_docs rule for generating rustdoc.
