Abseil C++#

The $dir_pw_third_party/abseil-cpp/ module provides build files to allow optionally including upstream Abseil C++.

Using upstream Abseil C++#

If you want to use Abseil C++, you must do the following:

Submodule#

Add Abseil C++ to your workspace with the following command.

git submodule add https://github.com/abseil/abseil-cpp.git \
  third_party/abseil-cpp/src

GN#

  • Set the GN var dir_pw_third_party_abseil-cpp to the location of the Abseil C++ source.

    If you used the command above, this will be //third_party/abseil-cpp/src

    This can be set in your args.gn or .gn file like: dir_pw_third_party_abseil_cpp = "//third_party/abseil-cpp/src"

Updating#

Currently, all dependencies on Abseil-C++ are indirect and via other third-party modules:

  • FuzzTest

The GN build files for Abseil-C++ will be updated when the build files for those modules are updated. See those modules for instructions on updating.

The update script was last run for revision e9ca8d1c.
