Richard Zowalla closed TOMEE-4706.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Migrate the Gradle plugin to a current Gradle version
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TOMEE-4706
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-4706
> Project: TomEE
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Richard Zowalla
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 11.0.0, 10.3.0
>
>
> The Gradle plugin was built against Gradle 3.0 and did not work with current
> Gradle.
> h3. Gradle API artifact
> {{org.gradle:gradle-core}} was never published past 6.1.1, so it cannot
> express
> a modern Gradle API dependency from Maven. The module now uses
> {{dev.gradleplugins:gradle-api}} 8.11.1, which is the Gradle API packaged as a
> Maven artifact, equivalent to what {{gradleApi()}} gives a Gradle build.
> h3. Removed and deprecated API
> * {{Project.getBuildDir()}} is deprecated since Gradle 8 and removed in
> Gradle 9.
> Replaced with {{project.getLayout().getBuildDirectory()}}.
> * {{org.gradle.util.GFileUtils}} is no longer public API. The two call sites
> use
> {{java.nio.file.Files}} instead.
> * {{fixConfig()}} called {{classpath.add(...)}} on the {{classpath}} field
> inside
> {{if (classpath == null)}}. It only avoided a NullPointerException when the
> argument expression threw {{UnknownConfigurationException}} first. It now
> assigns the configuration, which is what was meant.
> h3. Task property validation
> Gradle 9 fails the build on invalid task properties. Fixed:
> * {{@Optional}} on 12 primitive properties. A primitive always has a value.
> * {{@Input}} on {{File}} and {{List<File>}} properties ({{serverXml}},
> {{docBase}}, {{workDir}}, {{modules}}) and on {{classpath}}. This task
> starts a
> blocking server and never takes part in up-to-date checking, and the values
> are
> injected reflectively from the extension rather than through Gradle's
> property
> mechanism, so they are {{@Internal}}.
> * Three fields were annotated but had no getter, so Gradle ignored the
> annotation
> and warned: {{singleClassloader}}, {{conf}} and
> {{classloaderFilteredPackages}}
> now have getters.
> h3. Gradle 10 readiness
> {{TomEEEmbeddedExtension.isSkipDefaultRepository()}} returned a boxed
> {{Boolean}}, which is not a valid bean property with an {{is-}} prefix and is
> deprecated for removal in Gradle 10. The field and setter were already
> primitive,
> so the getter is now {{boolean}}. The caller's null check was always true for
> an
> autoboxed primitive and is removed, so behaviour is unchanged.
> h3. Verification
> Built and run against Gradle 9.5.1 with a sample project: the plugin applies,
> the
> extension configuration reaches the task, dependencies resolve, TomEE Embedded
> boots, the deployed webapp answers HTTP 200, and "exit" shuts the server down
> cleanly with the port released.
> Note the task is interactive: it blocks reading stdin for "exit" or "quit", so
> with stdin closed it starts and returns immediately. That behaviour is
> unchanged.
> h3. Follow-up
> One Gradle deprecation remains: the task calls {{getProject()}} from its
> {{@TaskAction}}. That is incompatible with the configuration cache and will
> fail
> in Gradle 10. Fixing it means capturing the project state the task needs
> (configurations, project directory, build directory) at configuration time
> instead, which is a larger refactor and is left for its own change.
