incompatible_remove_cpu_and_compiler_attributes_from_cc_toolchain

[hlopko]

Flag: --incompatible_remove_cpu_and_compiler_attributes_from_cc_toolchain
Available since: 0.23 (February 2019 release)
Will be flipped in: 0.24 (March 2019 release)

Motivation

These attributes were introduced to drive the migration towards Crosstool in Starlark, but we ended up not needing them. They are currently unused, but cpu attribute was mandatory. This cleanup gets rid of them.

Migration

Delete these attributes. You can use buildozer to perform the removal:

buildozer 'remove cpu' '//:my_toolchain'
buildozer 'remove compiler' '//:my_toolchain'

It looks like this flag is not available in Bazel 0.23.

Edit. The flag is available, but there was a typo in the title.
