The caller can check whether the feature\_configuration enables `static\_link\_cpp\_runtimes` feature (if not, neither `static\_runtime\_lib` nor `dynamic\_runtime\_lib` have to be used), and use `static\_runtime\_lib` if static linking mode is active. ### Parameters | Parameter | Description | | ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- | | `feature_configuration` | required Feature configuration to be queried. | ## gcov\_executable ``` None CcToolchainInfo.gcov_executable ``` The path to the gcov binary. ## ld\_executable ``` None CcToolchainInfo.ld_executable ``` The path to the ld binary. ## libc ``` None CcToolchainInfo.libc ``` libc version string. ## needs\_pic\_for\_dynamic\_libraries ``` None CcToolchainInfo.needs_pic_for_dynamic_libraries(*, feature_configuration) ``` Returns true if this rule's compilations should apply -fPIC, false otherwise. Determines if we should apply -fPIC for this rule's C++ compilations depending on the C++ toolchain and presence of `--force\_pic` Bazel option. ### Parameters | Parameter | Description | | ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- | | `feature_configuration` | required Feature configuration to be queried. | ## nm\_executable ``` None CcToolchainInfo.nm_executable ``` The path to the nm binary. ## objcopy\_executable ``` None CcToolchainInfo.objcopy_executable ``` The path to the objcopy binary. ## objdump\_executable ``` None CcToolchainInfo.objdump_executable ``` The path to the objdump binary. ## preprocessor\_executable ``` None CcToolchainInfo.preprocessor_executable ``` The path to the preprocessor binary. ## static\_runtime\_lib ``` None CcToolchainInfo.static_runtime_lib(*, feature_configuration) ``` Returns the files from `static\_runtime\_lib` attribute (so they can be passed to actions using this toolchain as inputs). The caller should check whether the feature\_configuration enables `static\_link\_cpp\_runtimes` feature (if not, neither `static\_runtime\_lib` nor `dynamic\_runtime\_lib` should be used), and use `dynamic\_runtime\_lib` if dynamic linking mode is active. ### Parameters | Parameter | Description | | ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- | | `feature_configuration` | required Feature configuration to be queried. | ## strip\_executable ``` None CcToolchainInfo.strip_executable ``` The path to the strip binary. ## sysroot ``` None CcToolchainInfo.sysroot ``` Returns the sysroot to be used. If the toolchain compiler does not support different sysroots, or the sysroot is the same as the default sysroot, then this method returns `None`. ## target\_gnu\_system\_name ``` None CcToolchainInfo.target_gnu_system_name ``` The GNU System Name.
