Remove dependencie with bazelbuild/rules_cc #2950
Conversation
Long time ago Bazel was saying that cc_binary, cc_library, cc_test and the other cc_* rules should be imported from rules_cc. However rules_cc was always saying that there is no need to use them yet. After several discussions it was clarified that migration to bazelbuild/rules_cc was put on hold and there is not need to the users that they start using it. One of the reasons why a person would not want to use rules_cc right now is because there is no release and there is no notion of what is a good commit: bazelbuild/rules_cc#91 bazelbuild/rules_cc#68 The fact that rules_go depends on rules_cc forces any rules_go user to use rules_cc. Considering that rules_docker depends on rules_go, any rules_docker user is also forced to depend on rules_cc. More information about the discussions: bazelbuild/rules_cc#86 bazelbuild/rules_cc#92 bazelbuild/buildtools#923 bazelbuild/buildtools#952 Fixes bazel-contrib#2949

It seems according to [1] that bazelbuild/rules_cc has been put on hold and that the recommended way for now, is to use the native cc rules. [1]: bazel-contrib/rules_go#2950

Stop using an external rules_cc dependency. Use internal C/C++ rules instead. - Follows googletest in doing this. google/googletest#3574 - See also: bazel-contrib/rules_go#2950 This appears necessary for compatibility with Bazel 5.0.0 and Bazel 6.0.0 Update to googletest-release-1.12.1, the last release that only needs a C++11 compiler, and doesn't require C++14. Update to re2-2022-12-01 I have successfully built and tested effcee with this configuration on Linux x86-64 with Bazel 5.0.0 and Bazel 6.0.0.
