NDK17 is was released. I haven't tested with bazel 0.14rc, but I don't see this being in the changelog. I haven't had free cycles to work on this yet. Bumping to P1 for re-prioritization.  That's great thank you! @steeve WIP: https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/pull/5371 When calling `./configure` in tensorflow I get
```
WARNING: The API level of the NDK in ../Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle is 17, which is not supported by Bazel (officially supported versions: [10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16]). Please use another version.
```
Can someone please confirm I can ignore this warning? Yes, you can ignore it. Bazel supports up to r18 now.

This will "pass" on CI because the test is disabled. The CI has r15, not r17.
Support NDK 17
r17 is expected to land [in May 2018.](https://github.com/android-ndk/ndk/wiki#release-schedule)

Betas 1 and 2 will be released this month (March) and next month (April) respectively.

 https://android.googlesource.com/platform/ndk/+/ndk-release-r17/CHANGELOG.md

[Relevant changes:](https://android.googlesource.com/platform/ndk/+/master/docs/Roadmap.md#ndk-r17)
- `libc++`/`@androidndk//:toolchain-libcpp` will become the default STL. The other STLs will be removed in r18, or moved to another project.
- GCC will no longer be supported.
- Removed support for building against `armeabi`, `mips`, and `mips64`.
- ~Removed support for API levels 14 and 15. New minimum is 16.~
- [clang is updated to v6.0.2, build 4691093](https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/clang/host/darwin-x86/+/refs/heads/ndk-release-r17/clang-4691093/AndroidVersion.txt)
