hi,
you can easyly compile devel/bazel on port tree but after successful compile
and install, you can not use bazel to compile java code or java project
because, bazel needs freebsd java tool chain and bazel community does not
support tool chain for FreeBSD OS. I learned from their people, i need to
compile bazel from source.
in this case , we need to do something to support our FreeBSD by creating tool
chain rather than compiling bazel from source. in this case, bazel port is
useless for java jdk toolchain needed projects not only for java project but
also c++ projects such as envoy proxy!

i hope someone will take care of the support because compiling bazel from
source is not compiling successfull that means there is no bazel for freebsd at
all.
