# Build System Changes for Android.mk Writers
## Stop referencing sysprop_library directly from cc modules
For the migration to Bazel, we are no longer mapping sysprop_library targets
to their generated `cc_library` counterparts when dependning on them from a
cc module. Instead, directly depend on the generated module by prefixing the
module name with `lib`. For example, depending on the following module:
```
sysprop_library {
name: "foo",
srcs: ["foo.sysprop"],
}
```
from a module named `bar` can be done like so:
```
cc_library {
name: "bar",
srcs: ["bar.cc"],
deps: ["libfoo"],
}
```
Failure to do this will result in an error about a missing variant.

To migrate all gensrcs to Bazel, we are restricting the use of depfile property
