Discussing using either bazel or buck for say a C project on another list, e-devel[1]. They only support C++ and have various limitations. Which Gradle maybe superior there in that sense for building native code via C, C++ or other. Not to mention seems both Bazel and Buck need python. Which I am not a fan of by any means. I like that Gradle is mostly all java with some groovy. All of which I can build from source easily and have most packaged for Gentoo from source[2]. Just need to finish off a cli[3]. Maven I am stuck on due to its own means of generating code via Modello and Plexus[4]. Stuff no one uses except for Maven itself it seems.... For Netbeans since it already has Gradle plugins, etc. I would think that would be the direction to go for any build system replacement of ant. Not that I find ant slow. I think moving to Gradle may reduce build time. Not sure bazel or buck would make sense for Netbeans. The python aspect I would not like of either... :) 1. https://sourceforge.net/p/enlightenment/mailman/message/36325378/ 2. https://github.com/Obsidian-StudiosInc/os-xtoo/search?q=gradle&unscoped_q=gradle 3. https://github.com/Obsidian-StudiosInc/os-xtoo/issues/37 4. https://github.com/codehaus-plexus/modello/issues/15 -- William L.
