So - instead we use already build jars. Go to `search.maven.org` and - search for `com.google.protobuf` and download the jars for protobuf-java - and protobuf-java-util and place them in the new directory. -3) Modify protobuf's `BUILD` file to not build java from source, but to use - the jars instead. To do that, in the BUILD file delete the rules listed - under `Java support`. Then, from the `third_party/protobuf/BUILD file` - copy the rules under "Modifications made by bazel" to the new BUILD file. - Those rules should have the same names as the ones you just deleted. You - will need to update the names of the jars in the rules sources to the - ones you just downloaded. -4) Copy `third_party/protobuf/com_google_protobuf_java.BUILD` to the new - directory. -5) Copy this file to the new directory and update it if you found the - instructions to be wrong or incomplete. -6) Replace the contents in `third_party/protobuf` with the contents in this - directory. -7) Delete this directory. - -# Current protobuf version - -The current version of protobuf was obtained from @laszlocsomor's protobuf fork -`https://github.com/laszlocsomor/protobuf` at commit `421d90960d`. Once -`https://github.com/google/protobuf/pull/2969` is merged into upstream -protobuf, we no longer need to use @laszlocsomor's fork but can directly clone -upstream. |
