How to reference the platform repository.

[esharkwang]

Hi All,

I am new to use bazel build system. I installed the latest bazelisk and bazel with 6.0.0. However when I tried to build fleetbench the following messages were pop out.
bazel run -c opt fleetbench/swissmap:cold_swissmap_benchmark
ERROR: /root/.cache/bazel/_bazel_root/0bce1989468318c371f4348e6ac4d902/external/bazel_tools/platforms/BUILD:89:6: in alias rule @bazel_tools//platforms:windows: Constraints from @bazel_tools//platforms have been removed. Please use constraints from @platforms repository embedded in Bazel, or preferably declare dependency on https://github.com/bazelbuild/platforms. See bazelbuild/bazel#8622 for details.
ERROR: /root/.cache/bazel/_bazel_root/0bce1989468318c371f4348e6ac4d902/external/bazel_tools/platforms/BUILD:89:6: Analysis of target '@bazel_tools//platforms:windows' failed

INFO: Elapsed time: 1.363s
INFO: 0 processes.
FAILED: Build did NOT complete successfully (33 packages loaded, 85 targets configured)
ERROR: Build failed. Not running target

I had checked the issue 8622. But I didn't get any clue how to declare dependency on the platform repository. Could someone give me a hint? Thanks in advance.

In order to fix this error, I find it easiest doing the following:

1. Vet where in your code base by doing a simple search if there are any remaining references using @bazel_tools//platforms:<some-value>. If there are update them using the new values
2. If step 1 does not help get rid the above error, it means that there are probably direct deps in your code base that are still referencing the deprecated values. Do the following to find out what need to be updated

$ bazel build --nobuild <your-repo>
$ bazel info output_base
$ grep -r "@bazel_tools//platforms" <output from 2nd command>

Afer you get a list of deps that need to be updated. You probably want to:

1. update the deps to use the new constraints value if they're not already updated
2. use the updated version of your deps (probably declared in your WORKSPACE file)

Some example PRs: bazel-contrib/rules_jvm_external#730, https://github.com/bazelbuild/examples/pull/255/files

Hi aranguyen,

Happy new year! Appreciate your help! I found that it was caused by some old library referenced the old version of skylib. So it would cause build failure. After specify the latest skylib lib, the first phase could pass. However I hit the a new problem. I am not sure whether it is related to the platform issue.

it would fail as no permission. I had add 777 privileges for fleetbench folder. However gcc reported no permission to cause build failure. I also cleaned the bazel cache with "bazel clean --expunge". Could you help to give me some hint?
