Set the correct main class on the desugar java_binary target in Bazel. This will make it easier to build the desugarer tool from the Bazel source tree as an executable (deploy) jar and then use it for something else. For example, with this CL, you can do the following steps to get a standalone desugarer binary: 1. git clone https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel 2. bazel build //src/tools/android/java/com/google/devtools/build/android/desugar:desugar_bin_deploy.jar 3. cp bazel-bin/src/tools/android/java/com/google/devtools/build/android/desugar/desugar_bin_deploy.jar ~/bin/desugar.jar And then you can invoke desugar without bazel with `java -jar ~/bin/desugar.jar`. https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/2975 RELNOTES: None PiperOrigin-RevId: 155629711
{Fast, Correct} - Choose two
Bazel is a build tool that builds code quickly and reliably. It is used to build the majority of Google‘s software, and thus it has been designed to handle build problems present in Google’s development environment, including:
A massive, shared code repository, in which all software is built from source. Bazel has been built for speed, using both caching and parallelism to achieve this. Bazel is critical to Google's ability to continue to scale its software development practices as the company grows.
An emphasis on automated testing and releases. Bazel has been built for correctness and reproducibility, meaning that a build performed on a continuous build machine or in a release pipeline will generate bitwise-identical outputs to those generated on a developer's machine.
Language and platform diversity. Bazel's architecture is general enough to support many different programming languages within Google, and can be used to build both client and server software targeting multiple architectures from the same underlying codebase.
