Make it easier for tools/bazel wrapper script to find bazel-real The launcher script uses "exec -a" to launch the wrapper, but if the wrapper script is itself a Bash script, Bash will set "$0" to be the path to the wrapper script, not the path to the launcher script. To work around this, we've been having our wrapper script search the user's PATH environment variable for bazel-real, but that doesn't work well with the IntelliJ plugin for Bazel, which may not use the expected PATH environment. -- Change-Id: I402ad29d5b809be8e687e217e19c03e7ac3eb972 Reviewed-on: https://cr.bazel.build/7550 PiperOrigin-RevId: 140851992 MOS_MIGRATED_REVID=140851992
{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.
