Well,

Usually there is not too much change if any on the tooling side between the RC-s and the final release of Gradle. The main glitch is that new project would be generated using the 8.3-rc-1 as default even after 8.3 come out.

Also there is another "issue", that from 8.2, Gradle generates Kotlin DSL by default, which could be confusing. I do not how big "pain" that could be, especially if we consider that we are quite popular in the Education sector... A patch to get the Groovy back might would worth another RC, might not...

I've plan to add a Gradle DSL dialect selector to the new project page later

a week, but maybe shorter depending on what changed since the previous RC.
There were only a couple days between the last RC for 8.2 and the final
release. RC-3 was announced on Wednesday, August 2nd.

You and Laszlo can make the call.

Cheers,

Scott

Seems to be working well.  I see Gradle 8.3-rc-3 is available, but didn't
make it into NetBeans19-RC4.  I haven't noticed any regressions, so I
would
try to squeeze in whatever the latest artifact is for Gradle 8.3 when the
final NB 19 build is made.

We'd need another NetBeans release candidate for that. Doable. Are the
Gradle RC on a schedule? If so, possibly wait to see if a final release is
made soon?

Best wishes,

Neil
