> Yeah - not sure we're quite at the point where LLVM wants to start supporting two build systems again (used to be Configure+Make and the CMake system, now it's just the Cmake system), but if you want to make it work out-of-tree it shouldn't be too difficult (Google does this internally with the internal version of Bazel). Writing a short BUILD extension for running tblgen should be possible without too much complexity - not sure what Tensorflow is doing that makes its solution so complicated, it doesn't seem like it should be terribly hard, just a genrule to run tblgen and generate the appropriate files from the td files.<br>

Would it be technically possible for cmake to generate bazel files? If so, it seems that that could be a great bridge, and useful to other projects as well.<br></blockquote><div><br>/maybe/? It's an interesting thought - not sure I know enough about either build system to have a very informed opinion here, though.<br><br>- Dave<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
