Compile a project for x86-32












0















I got a C++ project for Bazel, which by default builds for 64-bit Windows on my machine. However, I want to create a 32-bit executable, which, according to the documentation, is supported.



I have tried these commands:



bazel build :knusperli --platforms @bazel_tools//platforms:x86_32



Target @bazel_tools//platforms:x86_32 was referenced as a platform, but does not provide PlatformInfo




bazel build :knusperli --cpu i386_windows



ERROR: No toolchain found for cpu 'i386_windows'.




I thought, since Visual Studio can build 32-bit executables, it would be easy in Bazel as well, but I can't find any information how to actually do this.

          Bazel does not support building 32-bit binaries out-of-the-box. It's possible to add support via a custom CROSSTOOL file.

          • I have already seen two of these articles, but it all seems very complicated to someone who only wants to compile one project. Can I find a CROSSTOOL file for x86 somewhere? It seems to me like nobody has even considered building for x86 for some reaason.

          • Sorry, I don't know of any examples. Unfortunately we have no capacity to work on supporting x86.
