Never Compile protoc Again

17 May 2024

Description

The protobuf repo has been a headache for Bazel users for a long time. Starting in Bazel 7, there's a new flag to use a toolchain for looking up protoc and the language plugins. This allows us to stop compiling protoc from C++ sources, and use a faster pre-built toolchain. Our guest Sahin Yort walks through the changes needed to benefit from this flag, as well as the long tail of ruleset updates that will be required to roll it out across the whole Bazel ecosystem.
