 # This bazelrc defines the `DD_USE_ABSEIL_FOR_ENVOY` preprocessor macro, and so
 # the resulting library will use `absl::string_view` and `absl::optional`
 # instead of their standard (`std`) equivalents.

+# Additionally, we configure Abseil to not use std library types by setting
+# the appropriate ABSL_OPTION_* macros, replacing the need for patching.
