How to make shared libraries with Bazel at Tensorflow

Question

I've tried building tensorflow with bazel as follows:

bazel build -c opt --copt="-fPIC" --copt="-g0" //tensorflow/tools/pip_package:build_pip_package

I couldn't see .so file under ~/tensorflow/bazel-bin/tensorflow/core.

There are no .so files but .lo files and .a files.

Could you tell me how to make .so files of tensorflow library?

Answer 1

//tensorflow:libtensorflow.so is the target you are looking for.

bazel build -c opt //tensorflow:libtensorflow.so

should produce the file in bazel-bin/tensorflow.
