Alan Conway commented on PROTON-2100:
-------------------------------------
I've hit bazel also in envoy. There are pros and cons, and I'm on record as
hating Cmake (I never met a build system I didn't hate) but I think ultimately
it would just be swapping one set of voodoo for another. CMake sucks but we've
made it work. Bazel is better in some ways and sucks even worse in others. We
could make it work, but after much painful and unproductive thrashing we'd just
have Yet Another Over-Complex Build Framework that will be fashionable for a
while, and then be sucky and out-dated compared to the next New Hotness. I
don't see the gain.

> Project: Qpid Proton
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: proton-c
> Reporter: Omer Katz
> Priority: Major

> Bazel is a modern build system for polygot repositories like qpid-proton.
> Using it should simplify how we build and package our bindings and c library.
> This issue is an opportunity to discuss if we want to switch and if so, how.
