A Gradle implementation sounds good to me! I'm currently packaging some libraries into the repo of my java plugin, but other developers interested in participating in my project asked if I could implement Gradle to simplify handling the dependencies. And those helper methods look good! That would simplify things quite a bit.
Might I take the opportunity to ask, I'm currently in the process of packaging JCEF (Java Chrome Embedded Framework) into my plugin. This requires adding the path to the native libraries to the system path. I've been successful in the build on Windows using JDK 1.8 since I'm able to use reflection and reset the "java.library.path" at runtime. I haven't been as successful with a Linux build, where I believe I need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to accommodate the path to the JCEF native libraries. While in the testing phase just trying to get it working on Linux, I've tried manually setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable on the command line before launching the "Debug install" from Netbeans, however I'm seeing at runtime that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is being overwritten, I'm guessing by the Ant script? I see three references to LD_LIBRARY_PATH in build-uno-impl.xml but I don't think I can change anything there? I believe that file is automatically generated by the Netbeans plugin, in fact it says at the very top of the file: <!-- *** AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED - DO NOT EDIT *** *** EDIT ../build.xml INSTEAD *** --> I confess I have hardly any experience with Ant, until now I've depended on the AOO Netbeans plugin taking care of that and it's been enough for my purposes. Now I'm finding that I need to link to other native libraries and so I probably need to edit the Ant scripts to set environment variables and "java.library.path". Any pointers on how I should go about doing so?
