bazel_winlibs

A Bazel module that configure a MinGW toolchain for Windows, using the winlibs standalone build from brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw. This module allows Bazel to utilize the MinGW toolchain for building C++ projects on Windows.

How to Use

MODULE.bazel

bazel_dep(name = "rules_cc", version = "0.0.10")
bazel_dep(name = "platforms", version = "0.0.10")

# use the latest commit available
git_override(module_name="bazel_utilities", remote="https://github.com/0-Sacha/bazel_utilities.git", commit="1c3c6c01dcccc6c922c4955c92aa7c3c015a9d1c")
git_override(module_name="bazel_winlibs", remote="https://github.com/0-Sacha/bazel_winlibs.git", commit="455905e58465eeb6e7a4a63e3ba3c7e985a3fc53")

bazel_dep(name = "bazel_utilities", version = "0.0.1", dev_dependency = True)
bazel_dep(name = "bazel_winlibs", version = "0.0.1", dev_dependency = True)

winlibs_toolchain_extension = use_extension("@bazel_winlibs//:rules.bzl", "winlibs_toolchain_extension", dev_dependency = True)
inject_repo(winlibs_toolchain_extension, "platforms", "bazel_utilities")
winlibs_toolchain_extension.winlibs_toolchain(
    name = "winlibs",
    copts = [],
)
use_repo(winlibs_toolchain_extension, "winlibs")
register_toolchains("@winlibs//:gcc-toolchain")
# register_toolchains("@winlibs//:clang-toolchain")

It provide two toolchains @<repo>//:gcc-toolchain / @<repo>//:clang-toolchain. You can use these toolchains to compile any cc_rules in your project.

Limitations
