Creates a library distribution with necessary headers and library files that can be used to create Tensorflow C++ programs with your favourite build system, without bazel.

make_tensorflow_cpp_lib_dist.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Creates a dist archive that can be used to create C++ applications with Tensorflow, without bazel
# IMPORTANT: Before running this script, compile tensorflow_cc.so with --config=monolithic, then run this script.
#
# The script is written for Tensorflow v1.11. Update all dependencies in this script when running for a higher version.
# You can find the 3rd party dependency library versions in ${TENSORFLOW_DIR}/tensorflow/workspace.bzl.
