The issue used for tracking Paddle feature/bazel_build develop status.

Problems:

• How bazel read command line flags or environment variable? It is very useful for Paddle to make various binary file. Such as WITH_GPU, WITH_AVX, WITH_DOUBLE, etc. See here.

• Currently, reference Python library just use a precompiled static library. It may be a critical defect. See here. Is there a better way to reference a third party library, without manually writing a bazel build for it?
