Slang (sv-lang)

This is a bazel wrapper to build slang.

It includes:

• Slang C++ Libraries
• Binary for the main slang driver
• Binaries for the slang tools (slang-tidy, rewriter, ...)
• Locally-built Python bindings (pyslang)

Pyslang

Pyslang is available on PyPI, but the option of using a local build is provided to take advantage of the reproducable hermetic build, and to align the versions used for Slang and Pyslang in a given repository.

Because we include the Python bindings, we do not use mimalloc in the main slang library build as they are incompatible.

TODO

Desirable future changes to this build include:

• support multithreading in the C++ with SLANG_USE_THREADS
• add .pyi stubs for the Pythonbindings
• add a method to patch in CPPTRACE with SLANG_USE_CPPTRACE
