//python/cc:py_cc_toolchain_info.bzl
Provider for C/C++ information from the toolchain.
See also
Custom toolchains for how to define custom toolchains.
py_cc_toolchainrule for defining the toolchain.
- provider PyCcToolchainInfo
C/C++ information about the Python runtime.
- PyCcToolchainInfo.<init>(headers, headers_abi3, libs, python_version)
- PyCcToolchainInfo.headers: struct
Information about the header files, struct with fields:
providers_map: a dict of string to provider instances. The key should be a fully qualified name (e.g.
@rules_foo//bar:baz.bzl#MyInfo) of the provider to uniquely identify its type.The following keys are always present:
CcInfo: the CcInfo provider instance for the headers.
DefaultInfo: the DefaultInfo provider instance for the headers.
A map is used to allow additional providers from the originating headers target (typically a
cc_library) to be propagated to consumers (directly exposing a Target object can cause memory issues and is an anti-pattern).When consuming this map, it’s suggested to use
providers_map.values()to return all providers; or copy the map and filter out or replace keys as appropriate. Note that any keys beginning with_(underscore) are considered private and should be forward along as-is (this better allows e.g.:current_py_cc_headersto act as the underlying headers target it represents).
- PyCcToolchainInfo.headers_abi3: struct | None
If available, information about ABI3 (stable ABI) header files, struct with fields:
providers_map: a dict of string to provider instances. The key should be a fully qualified name (e.g.
@rules_foo//bar:baz.bzl#MyInfo) of the provider to uniquely identify its type.The following keys are always present:
CcInfo: the CcInfo provider instance for the headers.
DefaultInfo: the DefaultInfo provider instance for the headers.

Added in version 1.7.0: The
features.headers_abi3attribute can be used to detect if this attribute is available or not.
- PyCcToolchainInfo.libs: struct | None
If available, information about C libraries, struct with fields:
providers_map: A dict of string to provider instances. The key should be a fully qualified name (e.g.
@rules_foo//bar:baz.bzl#MyInfo) of the provider to uniquely identify its type.The following keys are always present:
CcInfo: the CcInfo provider instance for the libraries.
DefaultInfo: the DefaultInfo provider instance for the headers.
A map is used to allow additional providers from the originating libraries target (typically a
