empty_filenames

depset runfiles.empty_filenames

Returns names of empty files to create.

files

depset runfiles.files

Returns the set of runfiles as files.

merge

runfiles runfiles.merge(other)

Returns a new runfiles object that includes all the contents of this one and the argument.

Note: When you have many runfiles objects to merge, use merge_all() rather than calling merge in a loop. This avoids constructing deep depset structures which can cause build failures.

Parameters

other	runfiles; required The runfiles object to merge into this.

merge_all

runfiles runfiles.merge_all(other)

Returns a new runfiles object that includes all the contents of this one and of the runfiles objects in the argument.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
other	sequence of runfiless; required The sequence of runfiles objects to merge into this.

root_symlinks

depset runfiles.root_symlinks

Returns the set of root symlinks.

symlinks
