Travis commented on NETBEANS-2755:
----------------------------------
Exactly. For offline development, we simply need a similar feature analogous
to the existing "download sources and javadocs" that can provide the same kind
of attachment to local files that were previously manually downloaded and saved.
> Gradle project properties: Support for attaching sources for project
> libraries (in gradle.properties, or any project-versionable file)

> Key: NETBEANS-2755
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2755
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: projects - Gradle
> Reporter: Travis
> Assignee: Laszlo Kishalmi
> Priority: Minor
>
> I have a large multi-project build which we store in a git repo. Some of our
> developers use Netbeans and would like the library dependency .jar files to
> have attached sources, so that they can conveniently review their
> sources/javadocs during IDE code development. Although it's possible to
> attach sources, the attachment isn't saved inside the project properties, and
> isn't relative to the project root directory. So it doesn't seem possible to
> set up our repo so that netbeans users automatically get attaches library
> source files (where the source files are stored inside the same repo).
>
> Perhaps it would work if I modified our build.gradle to declare the sources
> as build dependencies, but this is bogus and undesirable.
>
> With the older gradle plug-in, I was able to add the sources as dependencies
> in the netbeans-init.gradle, and this worked fine.
>
> Is it possible for the new build-in Gradle support to be enhanced to allow
> library source attachments to be tracked, in a manner that allows both the
> sources and their attachment settings to live inside the project's source
> repo?
>
> (By the way, other than a few missing features and a couple of minor
> exceptions thrown, the new built-in gradle support is really nice, and
> generally works well. The existing customizability is also really good!
> Thank you!)
